Competition Brief // Cheltenham Illustration Awards

I found this brief on the website http://www.graphiccompetitions.com which was suggested to us in the PPP module overview document.

It caught my eye immediately as it is an illustration brief which is perfect for me because I enjoy image making. Also the subject is humanity which I am interested in, it will give me a chance to look into different cultures.


Cheltenham Illustration Awards 2014

 
 Category:  Illustration
 Deadline:  June 1, 2014  (30 days left)
 Contest's Website:  [link]

The focus of the Cheltenham Illustration Awards has always been one of narrative. Visual storytelling, whether sequential or single image, gives scope to the imagination and opens up possibilities beyond the present moment.
This year the theme is: Being Human

Humanity is self-evidently all around us: although all of us are unique and different, we all are born, live, love, feel, eat, sleep and move – and ultimately we all die. Your brief can explore the shared universal principles of being human, or celebrate the diversity and cultural mix that forms today’s society.

There are two main sections:

Student
Emerging and Established

The Student category is open to all full time students over 18 years of age worldwide. The Emerging and Established category is open to any newly practising illustrators who are wishing to gain exposure of their work and to those who are more established and are apart of the illustration world.

There is no entry fee.

Eligibility


Open worldwide to all students, emerging and established illustrators.

Prize


The selected work will be showcased at the Cheltenham Art Gallery & Museum (UK) and other venues, and published in the 2014 Cheltenham Illustration Awards Annual, which will be distributed to educators and publishers.
