The Six
An experimental design residency created to refine and develop emerging talent in design and copy.
The program is highly collaborative in practice and meticulous in process with a purpose of creating marketing and advertising campaigns for real brands over a quarterly residency.
During the residency, the Six work together to concept, create, present, refine, and produce a creative campaign for a real-world brand and have full ownership of the creative to add to their portfolios.

Applications open every three months for the following quarter. Only six candidates per quarter will be accepted. After their residency, the Six will continue to have access to the alumni network and forums.
Process
The Six will work closely and collaboratively (remotely) to create a brand marketing campaign for a real brand with real processes, timelines, and productions led by tenured Creative Directors from Apple, Airbnb, and other global brands.
