Adobe tweaks Creative Residency program to launch $1M support fund for visual creatives
ФОТО: dpreview.com

Adobe has announced the latest iteration of its Adobe Creative Resident program, one that has changed substantially in light of the coronavirus pandemic. This year, Adobe says that it will only select two Creative Residents, but that it will also launch a $1 million Creative Residency Community Fund intended to support creators during the economic downturn.

Adobe explains that this fund will be open globally and will be used to hire creatives for projects commissioned by Adobe over the next year, as well as personal projects. Creatives who get support from Adobe for personal and commissioned projects will also receive career guidance workshops, Creative Cloud memberships and other unspecified support.

We've rounded up resources to support our community of creators during these tough times. https://t. co/zJUqywQeAD

Visual creatives interested in the fund will need to apply on Adobe's website here. Applicants have the choice of applying for a creative project grant, which will range from $500 to $5,000, or for Adobe project commissions, which will also be valued at $500 to $5,000. Applicants aren't required to propose a project when applying for commissioned work.

Adobe plans to run its fund for 12 months from May 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021. Recipients will be notified about their inclusion in the program 30 to 60 days after submitting their application; the grants are issued on a monthly basis.

Adobe says that creatives can apply for the Community Fund even if they already applied for the Creative Residency this year but weren't selected. The company is accepting applications from a variety of visual creatives, including professionals who work with 3D, graphic design, short-form online videos, photography, digital painting and drawing, motion design and UX/UI/VX/XD design.

Today we are welcoming a new class of Creative Residents and announcing a $1 million #CreativeResidency Community Fund to support personal projects and provide career guidance for many more creators. https://t. co/r8YbM7tTTE

As far as commissioned work goes, professionals who are selected for projects will receive work based on their portfolio, skills and what Adobe happens to need at the time. This could include artwork for social media or use in applications, or something like creating a video, writing an article or developing a tutorial, according to the company.

Beyond this, Adobe announced that Christina Poku and Maddy Beard are its two Creative Residents for the 2020-2021 year. It's yet to be seen whether the coronavirus pandemic is over by the start of Adobe's next residency period and what kind of impact that may have on the company's future plans for its program.
