    ABOUT

    What is a zine?
    A zine is a small publication made with a specific audience in mind.
    What is the theme for this zine?
    The theme for the SSG zine is to provide tips and other helpful information in a survival guide format with a dystopian/ post-apocalyptic feel.
    Why are we making the zine?
    This is our project for our school's SCALE program. We are making it an intercampus collaboration to connect our community through the arts.
    What's the zine format?
    The zine would be completely online, A5 size. Physical copies might be made if enough people are interested.
    Is the zine for-profit or for charity/non-profit?
    The zine is completely non-profit. Since the moderators are still minors, we are legally unable to.
    How will contributors be compensated?
    Unfortunately, this zine will be non-profit, meaning that we cannot provide any monetary or material compensation to contributors. Despite that, we hope you will still retain your interest <3.
    Who can apply?
    Anyone who has been/ is currently in Philippine Science High School.
    Where can I apply?
    Application forms will be released on November 4, 2020, as we are still carrying out interest checks.
    Can artists and writers collaborate?
    Yes they can, make sure to specify it in your application form.
    Can I apply for both positions?
    Yes, but you will only be accepted to one.
    How will contributors communicate with mods?
    Accepted contributors will be required to join the zine discord server.
    Will traditional works be accepted?
    Yes, as long as a high quality scan of 300 dpi can be provided.
