How to Find Creatives on Naebula

Find creatives helps you find people who can fit a shoot, production, portfolio update, campaign, or creative team. It is for finding individuals. If you want to publish a need and let people discover or apply to it, use projects and wishes instead.

Role filters are the fastest way to narrow the directory. If you need a model, photographer, make-up artist, hairdresser, stylist, videographer, producer, retoucher, or another supported creative role, start there.

Supported creative roles

Model-specific filters

For model searches, Naebula can also show model-specific filters such as gender and arrangement type. Arrangement type helps separate professional, TFP, and flexible collaboration preferences where that information is available.

Base location and radius

Location is one of the main discovery controls. A profile’s base location decides where that person is normally shown, and location search helps you find creatives around a city, area, or country.

For city or area searches, Naebula can use a radius around the selected place. For country searches, discovery matches the country context instead of treating the whole country like one small radius.

Tours and visitor availability

Tours are for temporary availability. If someone is normally based in one place but will be available somewhere else on specific dates, a tour can make that availability visible in discovery.

The locals and visitors filter controls whether discovery includes only base-location matches, current tours, or current and upcoming tours.

Visible controls

Naebula does not hide discovery behind an opaque matching system. The main controls are visible: role, location, radius, local or visitor availability, and profile status.

Profile status and ordering

Ordering also stays understandable. Complete profiles are prioritized by default, recently added complete profiles can be surfaced, verified users can rank higher, and distance can matter when you search around a specific place.

A profile must be public and discoverable to appear in public discovery. If discoverability is turned off, that profile is not shown in Find creatives.

Profile actions

Search is only the first step. Once you find someone relevant, most actions happen from the person’s public profile.

• Open the public profile to see the full portfolio and profile context.
• Save the profile privately if you want to keep a shortlist while planning.
• Start a direct conversation when you are ready to talk about fit.
• Connect when you want a stronger relationship signal between profiles.
• Invite the person to one of your projects when that action is available from their profile.

Your own profile appears in discovery through the same simple mechanics. Choose the right role when creating the profile, set an accurate base location, keep discoverability on when you want to be found, and use tours when you are temporarily available somewhere else.

Profile completeness also matters. A profile photo and featured image help a profile qualify as complete in Find creatives, and verification can add another trust signal where available. The detailed setup steps live in the creative profile guide.
