Retrospring is shutting down on 1st March, 2025 Read more

❤️ · 7mo

Is there a time schedule already planned? Like, how much time do artists and writers have for their pieces?

Hello, so our planned schedule is after everyone is accepted by 4/24, they will have until 5/1 to state who they prefer to create for. Everyone’s choices will then be approved and distributed by 5/4 at the latest, and then their pitches are due 5/10. Submit a min of 3 pitch ideas and a max of 5, and those will be confirmed by 5/12. After that, you’re good to start working on pieces.

At the end of May is first check in: here we just want to see a minimum of a sketch/idea, line art, concept, outline; anything like that. Just to show you have an idea and a direction for your piece.
Towards the end of June: we want to see that you’re around the halfway point, whatever that may be for your process.
At the end of July: finals are due!

We have date options picked out, but we want to be mindful of our contributors’ individual workflows and processes (and if there are holidays happening around that time that we may be unaware of) so for exact dates, we will have those voted on by contributors during the first week of being in the Discord. Additionally, if you need an extension at any point, do just keep us informed. (Towards the end of the production period, there will be less lenience).

Of course, you can do more than required at the check in, or even a little less if you have a busy schedule at the time and you communicate with us. As long as you’ll be done by the time finals are due and keep good communication with us, you’re okay.
