Product Placement and Behind The Scenes

While we have been slow in going public with much of what we are doing, we are always working. Not just on the blog aspect but other elements and it has really started paying off for us in terms of a photo project and 2 short films with other aspects still in negotiation or set to be discussed soon.

In terms of the photo project, it has been split into different elements and lengthy calls and meetings have been held over the actual content in terms of how it will be shot, managed and promoted across the varying networks we have open to us and this took us down the path of product placement (which we are working through already and have a provisional interest for the editorial side from a designer in London).

Our creative director JamesC, has found a series of deals and offers with his preferred format of online magazines that will give us tear sheets and covers that will be promoted across the board, with a view to utilizing our resources in the designer realm and with our other contacts across South Asia at a later date, allow us to shoot editorials and submit with a higher percentage chance of publication with some careful structuring and planning at the creative director level.

Something we are going to push is the “behind the scenes” element, capturing the team at work, focusing on the creative aspect because our talks are taking us down the line of makeup with options and avenues that we are keen to pursue heavily.

In the coming months, we will open this to allow for smaller packages and individual project support giving placement in the behind the scenes, in the projects themselves (for film and TV) and looking closely at building our own magazine.

The Lost Concept has been building slowly and we are really proud of what we have achieved and will be showcasing this in more detail soon with a series of new sites and public projects.

Moonworkers Payroll, HR Management and Talent Sphere

When it comes to the financial side of being a freelancer or a company it can be difficult to keep track and ensure that your availability is visible to potential clients and requires a great deal of work which could be filtered to key areas of marketing, which is why the team behind Moonworkers came up with the new platform designed to streamline the process of corporate pay and freelance contracting. 

Built around a two-part process of a diary service and a financial platform for payment and invoicing which can be split into two key areas: 

Corporate: 

  • Payroll accuracy: More easily pay workers accurately and on time with the continuous

    calculation of net pay.

  • HR Management: Sign e-contracts, check right to work in the UK, enable auto-enrolment,

  • approve worker's timesheets, that enable auto-generation of payslips/ invoices depending

  • on the employment type.

  • Talent acquisition and retention: Find, recruit and rate the best talent with an end-to-end

    talent management solution.

  • Mitigate compliance risk: Moonworkers helps enable you to maintain compliance with HR requirements by automating and incorporating several legislative and regulatory requirements through flexible configuration options.

Freelancer/Talent: 

  • Showcase your brand profile: Showcase your personal brand, easily link your social media profiles and self-rate your caliber.

  • Get connected with trusted employers: You can easily check reviews and ratings of

  • employers. You can also chat with the previous workers of employers to get feedback.

  • Get paid on-time, every-time: Get job offers, negotiate and ensure getting paid on-time.

  • Increase your take-home pay: We do not charge the companies any recruitment fees, hence your take-home pay increases.

  • Manage all your documents in one place: You can track your timesheets, generate invoices and so on.

  • payslips and access HMRC's statutory documents within the app.

The beauty of this is the simplicity and marketing potential that for those in the creative fields allows us to control our diary, advertise and handle potential clients from a central point.  Corporate clients can also use this to streamline their payroll, browse and book staff on a per requirement basis and offers a more open playing field with all levels and budgets catered to allowing employers to find the best candidates from a wide pool with minimal fuss.
