If you’re looking to create polished, professional work for your portfolio, Fida projects are designed with you in mind. With opportunities running year-round, you can choose which ones fit your schedule and level of commitment. The work you produce will be seen by industry commissioners and agents, including big names like Vogue.
Fida has an impressive track record of connecting artists with leading brands. In fact, past participants have been commissioned directly from our projects, most recently, illustrator Kelly Bailey, who is now designing prints for major fashion house Ungaro.
What Are the Fida Projects?
At Fida, our projects challenge artists to work to a brief, honing essential skills like time management, brainstorming, research, and interpreting creative directions—skills critical to success in any professional environment. Whether you're just starting out or refining your craft, these projects offer a structured way to define and develop your unique style.
Why Join a Briefed Project Instead of Going Solo?
Motivation and focus can be tough when you’re working alone, especially if you’re new to the industry. Following a brief gives you a clear purpose and a deadline, helping you stay disciplined. Plus, the exposure you’ll get from participating is invaluable. You’re not just drawing at home—you’re sharing your work with the world.
Our current project, Four Cities, is open to all, but free for Project, Exclusive and Education Members. All you need to do is illustrate a look from one of the major fashion weeks, submit your work, and watch as it gets shared with a wider audience. You’ll gain exclusive access to the live online review of the work submitted. This interactive session provides direct feedback from industry professionals, giving valuable insights on how to improve and refine your craft. Join up and submit your work by the 6th October 2024
Flexibility
The projects are free for Project, Education & Exclusive Members. Not sure if you want to commit for the whole year? That’s okay. You can sign up for projects individually, though the full-year membership offers the best value and access to a wide range of opportunities.
Be Seen by the Right People
We know how important visibility is in this industry, which is why all project submissions are reviewed and shared. Your work could end up in front of commissioners actively scouting new talent.
Don’t miss out on your chance to be part of something bigger and take your work to the next level. The Fida Project membership can open doors to career-defining opportunities and provides access to all the projects throughout the year. Whether you’re looking for your first commission or your next big break, this is the place to start.
