If you don’t love DIY or have a desire to DIY anything and everything then your journey ends here. Bye.

Now that we have your attention fellow DIYers, let’s get to the meat and crumbs of this…

We’re on a mission here at Genies. We love avatars, we love fashion, and we love to DIY things. We want to empower YOU – the next generation of creators to build AVATAR ECOSYSTEMS. Yes, avatar ecosystems. We think everyone will have their own little avatar world in the future, made up of avatar species, digital fashion, homes, and social experiences.

The DIY Collective is a program we’re launching today designed to support and fund a new breed of creatives in launching their own avatar ecosystems using our tools.

Members that are selected for the program will be hosted for three weeks at our beautiful HQ in Los Angeles, kind of close to the beach but not really!! You’ll have direct access to our team, our network of experts across a variety of industries, and funding to build your ecosystem. By the end of the program, you’ll launch your own digital fashion collection through The Warehouse to kickstart your entire avatar ecosystem.

Whether you’re already a designer, a doodler, a creative director, a brand owner, a nutty little DIYer, a dreamer stuck in their head, or just a person with sick style – we want to hear from you! You don’t need any influence right now. We’re creating a new community of creators. Previous experience in digital fashion and 3D art development is not required. As long as you have passion to explore a new frontier, are comfortable expressing your unique and authentic self online, and have a curious itch to contribute to the future in a meaningful and positive way, THEN COME JOIN OUR CULT – WE CAN’T WAIT TO MEET U

Applications for our pilot program will close on August 1st and members will be notified of their application status on a rolling basis, with the program kicking off on August 8th. Apply here .
