This WHYTE GIG sounds like an ideal opportunity if you love storytelling, mystery, and building intrigue through content. Here’s how to approach it strategically and stand out both in your application and your work if selected.

🧠 What WHYTE Is Likely Looking For:

Someone who can build curiosity without giving too much away

A creator comfortable with aesthetics, mystery, and subtle hooks

A self-starter who can follow a content prompt but elevate it through tone, visuals, and pacing

Someone who can adapt ideas quickly across TikTok and Instagram (Reels)

✅ Deliverables Breakdown

🎥 2–5 Videos/Week:

They’ll give you hooks or concepts, but you’ll need to:

Choose the right tone (cryptic, cinematic, edgy, minimalist)

Craft visuals + text overlays that match the mystery

Film or edit footage in a way that teases just enough

Example Prompt from WHYTE:

“This isn’t for everyone. Just the ones who notice the patterns.”

→ Your job: Pair this with footage that feels voyeuristic or moody, like someone watching from behind glass.

📱 Platforms: TikTok

• Use a vertical format

• Understand visual rhythm + audio trends

• Create content that can spark DMs or shares, not just likes

✨ What You Could Say in Your Application:

Hey WHYTE team,

I’m fascinated by the art of mystery and subtle storytelling, where the vibe matters more than the explanation. I love crafting short-form content that gets people to pause, replay, or whisper “what was that?” under their breath.

I’ve created content that blends emotion, visual intrigue, and story tension — and I’m excited by the idea of turning your prompts into something that sticks with people. I’m confident working independently, but love collaborating to push boundaries. Let me know if you want to see sample videos that match your vision.

Approaching freshmen (first-years) for an app like Offstage — where the goal is real connection, not clout — is all about emotion-first marketing and authentic relationship-building. You're not selling an app. You're inviting them into a vibe, a movement, or even a safe space to just be themselves in a hyper-curated world.

🔥 Your Best Approach to Freshmen (Step-by-Step)

1. Lead with Relatability — Not the App

Don’t say: “Hey, try this new social app!”

Do say: “You know how everything online feels fake? This app feels like the opposite of that.”

🔹 Starter Hook Examples:

“Ever feel like you’re performing on IG? Same. That’s why I started using Offstage.”

“It’s like BeReal but more… emotionally real.”

“This app’s literally just a bunch of us posting whatever we actually feel. No followers, no filters.”

2. Use Your Own Story

Freshmen relate best to you when you're vulnerable first.

“I started using Offstage when I was new here. I didn’t know anyone and felt kinda disconnected. It was nice to post without pressure, and now I’ve met people just through showing up real.”

🧠 Psychology tip: Self-disclosure builds trust.

3. Group Invite = Higher Stickiness

Instead of inviting one person, invite two or three together.

“You and your roommates should try it together — it’s actually fun when your whole little group’s on it.”

That creates group rituals (a key Offstage growth loop).

4. Host a Low-Key Event or Moment

Freshmen love small, inclusive things. Try:

A late-night Offstage posting challenge in a dorm group chat

“Everyone post a raw 10pm photo on Offstage rn 👀 no filters allowed”

A mini “no context” photo thread:

“Drop one photo from your week that feels like a memory already.”

These feel like games, but they’re viral growth.

5. Turn Early Users into Ambassadors

Pick 1–2 freshmen who seem into it and say:

“You give good Offstage energy. Wanna help build the vibe with me? We’re trying to make it a default here.”

This spreads peer-to-peer. The cool kids who are quietly emotional? They’re your MVPs.
