Hey I’m Gab and I’m here once again with a new project! After hosting the Splatoon Planner project, I knew I wanted to host another planner but couldn’t decide what fandom to do next. Lia suggested a Zelda planner and from there, A Year in Hyrule was born. I’m super excited to get the ball rolling so welcome to the team. Let’s make this another fun planner!Recent Experience

The funds for this project will initially be used to cover production costs and then to compensate contributors with a copy of the planner and merch. The remaining funds will then be split between the contributors and mods. A more detailed breakdown can be found below in the compensation section.

Compensation Guidelines

This project is for profit. The funds will be divided into shares at the end of the project. Each moderator job is worth 1.5 share and each contributor job is worth 1 share. If someone takes up multiple jobs, they will obtain multiple shares. By applying to our project means you agree to all the guidelines below.As funds allow, contributors will be compensated with a planner, all the merch and the leftover profit. If a contributor does not want a planner nor merch, they may opt out of either or and receive the production cost added to their profit. However, the contributor may not opt out of certain merch items and can only opt out of the whole merch bundle.
Artists are allowed to buy copies of the planner to sell, however the selling price of the planner must not exceed the cost of what the planner was initially sold for in the official store. (For example, if the planner is sold for $30, artists may not sell their planners for more than $30). Artists may buy copies of the planner at production cost but are responsible for paying extra shipping fees due to the size and weight of shipping multiple planners.Payment will be sent out via Paypal using the “Goods and Services” option. All participants must be 18 or older by the estimated payout date of January 2024. If you are younger than 18, special permissions can be made if you allow us to send your payment to a parent/guardian or donate it to charity. A financial breakdown for contributor compensation will be provided at the end of the project.
