CREATIVE PARTNER PROGRAM
Top makers may be invited into an ongoing artist residency at Reve with up to $36,000 in credits for their closest collaborators.
"The gap between imagining something and making it real has never been smaller."
Melisa leads storytelling at Reve — one of the fastest-moving AI image companies in the world. She'll open the makeathon with a hands-on session covering how to think in prompts, how to iterate visually, and how to get real creative output in minutes. Then she hands the floor to you.

LOOSE THEMES
directions, not constraints.
01
new worlds & aesthetics
Imagine alternate realities. Build visual systems for places that don't exist. Worldbuilding, speculative design, generative environments.
02
memory & culture
Bring something to life that had no visual form — myths, family stories, living traditions, archival material, cultural artifacts.
03
functional making
Build something real and useful — a product, a brand, a tool, a game. Reve handles your visuals while you ship the thing itself.
