Awake the artist in you: MOD. poster competition
|
|
We’ve been working with our Youth Board on an upcoming event showcasing young filmmakers and artisan creatives. But first, the Youth Board need your help.
We are looking for a 15-25-year-old artist/designer/creative person to create an artwork for the event. Artists can have creative freedom in the design, but should reference the theme of ‘pushing the limits’ and that MOD. is showcasing filmmakers and artisan creatives.
The
artwork does not need to include any text and should work as the visual identity of the event. Submission can be in any medium including photography, graphic design, or illustration. Submit your work by Friday 4 August to win great prizes. First prize winner will be awarded with a $250 VISA gift card and merit award winners will take home a prize pack of MOD. merchandise. |
