CLLCTVE is the rising professional network for Gen Z, operating as the premier talent marketplace for brands to source young creators for paid work. Through the platform, creators can build a digital portfolio, secure exclusive job opportunities, and participate in brand content challenges, all while building within a community of creators from around the country. Brands can source user-generated content at scale through content challenges, data sourcing and exclusive access to creators from around the country.
CLLCTVE will be hosting a Kickoff Event for all UW students on February 22, 1:30 – 2:20pm! You can RSVP to attend here.
Kelsey Davis (CEO), who has worked with brands like Coca Cola, Conde Nast and Puma, and Joe Gonzales, who directs music videos for artists such as Tori Kelly and brands like Google, will walk attendees through the steps of creating a digital portfolio, showcasing what makes an impressive portfolio that captures the attention of brands.
They’ll host a Q+A with attendees, open to discussion on their individual stories as creators, how they use their content to position themselves for paid work with brands and what resources are most helpful to build a career as a creator.
All registrants will be granted to CLLCTVE’s Beta Platform to set up their portfolios and create them with Kelsey and Joe during the event!
