To dress up my Mecene posts, I built a carousel editor. Eight slides make up each post: the hook, the doubt, the formula, the facts, the conditions, the amount, the steps, the call to action. I set the text, background and typography in the browser, and export all eight images at once.
Eight slides, one role each
Each slide keeps a fixed role, in the same order for every post: the hook opens, the doubt acknowledges what the reader thinks, the formula states the idea, the facts and the conditions detail it, the amount puts a figure on it, the steps explain, the call to action closes. I don't recompose this order each time, I fill in the boxes.

You make rap in Paris. Grants? You figure they’re for the Opera.
Mecene.
The reflex “Grants aren’t for us.” You’ve already heard it, or even said it yourself.
Like public money goes to orchestras, to theaters, and rap just fends for itself or with the labels. Nah. Not this time.
Mecene.
There’s a grant for that.We checked.
Mecene.
What it covers Your rap shows in Paris, your rehearsal residencies, your dates in pro conditions.
It’s not a catch-all grant where you wonder if you fit. It says “hip-hop” right in it.
Mecene.
Who it’s for Pro hip-hop artists and collectives who work in Paris.
The Paris part, we won’t hide it, is a real condition. If you’re already working the scene there, you’re in the target.

Several sessions It’s not a window that opens once a year and slams shut.
Miss one, there are others. You’ve got time to put together a clean application.

Four ways to carry an idea
One slide holds plain text, another centers a short formula, another sets a giant figure, another is dressed with a photo. I pick the layout that best carries the idea of each slide, without switching tools.

Background
The page is the visual
I don't draw a separate mockup that I'd then copy over. The page I adjust in the browser is directly the file I export, slide by slide or all eight at once, ready to post.
