From the team

Working here is such a blessing opportunity to me. Starting from junior colorist and now I became lead colorist, they really improve our skills. Also since it's WFA, the time is flexible to a person with weird body clock like me 😂

Kat colorist · joined 2022

One of the things I appreciate most about this company is strong culture of growth and responsibility. Everyone is encouraged to keep learning and improving, while supporting each other along the way. It has been a rewarding experience, and I feel honored to be part of such a dedicated team.

Freeze background artist · joined 2025

I'm thrilled to be a part of vertwo. Besides the new experience, I've also learned a lot as a colorist. I've learned how to create strong shading during the coloring process, as well as other experiences like rendering/finishing panels based on storyboards. I've met team members who support each other and help with any challenges.

Pengalaman baru dan berharga banyak saya temukan di sini!

Arie colorist · joined 2023

Pandemi mempersempit cakupan area untuk bekerja, kemudian saya menemukan vertwo, pekerjaannya remote, fleksibilitas waktu, tempat, hemat waktu dan biaya dari perjalanan ke kantor. Pandemi mungkin telah mengubah cara kita bekerja, tetapi bukan menjadi penghalang untuk berkarya, hingga saat ini ribuan chapter telah diterbitkan.

Sudah bergabung dari Oct 2022 (tidak terasa) dari awal bekerja dari rumah. Seru menurutku sebagai colorist. Kecuali beberapa revisi yang menguras tenaga :')

FAQ

common questions.

Most of what candidates ask before applying. If your question isn't here, the form has a notes field, or contact us directly.

For art roles (line art, color, background):
8–12 finished pieces that show your strongest work. Original characters, fan art, or commissioned panels are all fine. Include rough-to-final progressions on at least one piece if you have them.

For story roles:
layouts or panel sketches showing how you approach pacing and composition.

For Project Manager:
a written sample of project coordination, a Notion doc, a project tracker, or a recap of a project you’ve shepherded works.

Department-specific.
Line art: ink a provided rough at the panel level.
Background: model 3D background and environment from storyboard.
Color: color a provided line art file.

Test materials are released through your dashboard once your application is screened. You work locally on your own software/hardware, then upload back through the dashboard.

All positions are remote and open to everyone across Indonesia. Meetings are held online via Google Meet or Discord. Training and internal academy sessions are also conducted online.

No. Bahasa Indonesia is our internal working language and is sufficient for every role. Working English helps for client-facing work. However, Japanese is a must for a Project Manager who is partnered with Japanese publishers, but neither is a requirement to apply or grow here.

We benchmark against the upper third of the Indonesian webtoon market for each role + level, with annual reviews tied to the Junior → Mid → Senior → Lead progression. Specific ranges are shared at the offer stage.

Drop us a line through the contact form or email. We run 3–4 batches a year, and exceptional senior portfolios sometimes get reviewed off-cycle for specific roles.

Yes. We hire at the junior level every batch, and student portfolios are welcome, we read for craft, not credentials. If you can show clean fundamentals (anatomy, perspective, color theory, composition), the rest is teachable. Oh, and interns are also welcome.
