FUR: ANTHROCON t-shirt contest! Artists take heed!
Dr. Samuel Conway
each year? And where do we get our designs for those T-shirts? From
YOU, of course! All of you fabulous artists out there, start wracking
your brains for a design for the Anthrocon 2002 T-shirt. This year's
theme is INVENTION. We will select the best design from among all the
entries, and will place that design on our T-shirt. As in years past,
the creator of the design we select will be awarded a FREE
SUPERSPONSORSHIP to this year's convention!
So what do you have to do?
The first, and most important, part of the contest is the concept
sketch. Here, we ask that you create a 'rough sketch' of your T-shirt
concept. This sketch should both reflect your artistic skill, as well
as the theme of this year's convention: 'Invention.' The T-shirts are
printed both front and back. The back illustration should be vertical
in format, and no larger than 9" x 14" at its largest. Likewise, the
front image should contain the words 'Anthrocon 2002', as well as
optional artwork in a horizontal format, and should be no larger than
3" x 5". Anthrocon will do lettering for you, if you are unable, or
unwilling to.
All submissions must be received by March 31st for consideration.
Entries should be submitted electronically via email to
anth...@anthrocon.org with the title of 'T-Shirt Submission' and
should contain your contact information. This should be your name,
your nickname should you chose to go by one, your email address, and
your mailing address.
The contest will be judged off of the sketch submissions you provide
to us. You may enter as many times as you wish, with as many concepts
as you desire. The winning submission will be picked by vote of the
Anthrocon Board of Directors. Once the winning submission has been
chosen, the winner will be notified of the Board's choice. A decision
will be made by April 8th. The winner will have until May 6th to
complete the final images.
Should the winner be unable to meet this deadline, the prize will
instead be awarded to the first runner up to complete the required
delivery.
As an added bonus, the creator of this coming year's T-shirt will
receive their very own copy of the T-shirt, signed by all of our
Guests of Honor.
Should the winner already hold a membership at the convention, the
winner's membership will be automatically upgraded. Should the winner
be unable to attend, the membership may be applied to Anthrocon 2003.
The prize is not transferable.

contest, please contact us at anth...@anthrocon.org.
