Eve Skylar – 1:1 Mentorships

Overview

1:1 Mentorships are private, custom mentorships and consist of 8 weekly sessions conducted over Zoom. If accepted, your mentor will reach out to arrange a schedule.

Details

This mentorship consists of 8 live sessions over Zoom, to be scheduled upon acceptance.

Who is this for?

Our 1:1 Mentorships are really for artists who are looking for guidance in a subject that isn’t already covered in our group mentorship programs, or would benefit from more individual attention.

Minimum technical requirements

An internet connection that can handle Zoom and screen sharing, a web camera, mic access (built in or external), and access to Discord.  

Beyond those basics, we trust that whatever you’re looking for mentorship around, you’ll have access to those resources/programs.

Mentor: Eve Skylar

Hello! I am an artist and storyteller working across animated features, TV series, live-action films, games, AR, VR, Wearables, theme parks, and immersive experiences.

As a first-generation working-class immigrant who overcame many obstacles, I found freedom in self-expression and a resilient, meaningful art career across multiple industries: Animation, Games, AR/VR, and Tech. 

I am the right mentor for mentees seeking not only the hard technical skills that become transferable and pivot-able across roles, but also the crucial soft-skills: professional communication, presenting your personal ideas, the resilience to face everyday rejections, and the grit to show up bravely in the arena for your art.

My credits and roles include: 

  • Production Designer (Carlos Baena’s ” La Noria” and “Tranvia”)
  • Art Director on Disney’s “Tree of Life Show”
  • Art Director on Netflix’s “Cocomelon”
  • Art Director on META’s Reality Lab (AR, VR, Games)
  • Principal Designer for RIOT Games’ “Valorant Cinematics”
  • Colorscript Artist, Art Style Development, and Visual Development Artist on Zack Snyder’s “Twilight of the  Gods” for Netflix Animation
  • DreamWorks Animation’s “Original IP” pitch to Netflix
  • Paramount Pictures’ “Director’s Development Program”
  • SEGA | Marza Animation Planet’s Animated Feature “Space Pirate Captain Harlock.”

The Investment

The amount of homework you’ll have per week is dependent on your skill level and what you’re seeking mentorship on. As with all mentorships, the more time you can afford to spend, the greater the growth you’ll experience.

The cost of registration is $1500 USD. We offer payment plans through Klarna or Affirm, and scholarships are available – please note any financial assistance needed on your application. Our goal is to offer accessible art education, so if financial barriers are the only thing stopping you, we strongly encourage you to apply. 

The Application

We process applications in the order that they are received, so we encourage you to apply as soon as you’re ready and committed. The number of 1:1 mentees each mentor can handle is greatly limited.

Things to have ready for your application:

  • a portfolio link
  • 30-60 minutes to fill out the application form

When you’re ready, please apply here.
