Lydify is creating an online software with the purpose of audio editing, aiming to simplify and convene the audio process of video editing. In advance of the final product, Lydify will launch an MVP, dealing with a scaled down problem within the audio world – podcast creators. Lydify combines an easy to use editor, created for audio purposes, with an online audio library, eliminating the current time-consuming process of browsing without the ability of testing.
We imagine that you will focus on three main tasks from the get-go. These tasks are all about being creative, simple, challenging, fun and so on. Nothing is right or wrong, so let your wildest ideas flow.
In addition, there’s a good possibility that you will work together with 1-3 other designers, including me, focusing on the same objectives and tasks. Pooling our ideas, being creative together and alone, drawing from each other’s expertise and so on.
Main three tasks:
1. The identity
The first assignment will be to explore different visual identities. We are in the early phase, and having focused more on the underlying structures, than the front of the company, we still don’t have a visual identity.
These identities should create the framework for the other two tasks. A visual identity includes, among other areas:
· Logo
· Colors
· Fonts and typography
· Hierarchy
· Photography
· Illustration
· Iconography
· Data visualization
· Interactive elements
· Video and motion
· Web design
2. The editor
The editor is the software itself. What should it look like and why? Sketch it up, write it down or build it up – doesn’t matter, just show us how you would do it.
It’s possible here to find inspiration from various existing editors, such as, After Effects, Logic Pro, Kapwing, Audacity, iMovie and so on.
Here it will be important to keep in mind our target group and what problems we’re trying to solve/ relieve them off.
3. The categorizing system
One of our selling points is convenience. One of the in-convenient and time-consuming processes of finding the right audio, is actually Finding it. Because, often, you may know in what direction you’re looking, but not what exactly to look for.
That’s why, having an incredibly simple way of sorting through thousands of audio files is essential, if we still wish to be convenient.
However, and as you’ve probably guessed since this is a task, we haven’t locked ourselves into a specific way of doing it. Which means, once again, we are open for the possibility of your ideas being many times better than ours.
So, the task itself, consists of creating different methods, drafts, layouts etc. of ways to go from an overall category to the exact thing, you were looking for. If that’s through colorful buttons, interactive graphics or drop-down lists – we’re not sure, but it’s for you to experiment with.
In addition, there will be the possibility to various optional minor tasks, that can vary from day-to-day basis, if you need some time to get your mind somewhere else.
Lydify has office in the open-office incubator at CSE – Copenhagen Entrepreneurial School. The atmosphere is great, with young and energetic start-ups everywhere.
If all of this sounds like something for you, then let’s have a talk as soon as possible.
If you have any additional questions, feel free to ask.
If you don't have any experience, but still feel that this role fits you perfectly, apply!
Your application will be based on your portfolio, but primarily your short message.
Standard copy paste messages will not be considered, because we can't feel if you're the creative and open-minded person we're looking for.
