HOME | AWARDS | RULES | ENTRY FORM
Please familiarize yourself with the rules before entering:
- Who may enter: All Graphic Design, Web
Design, or Digital Media students at Parkland College.
- Number of entries: Each student is eligible
to enter an unlimited number of pieces. All work must have been
completed during the past calendar year. By entering work in this
exhibit, the entrant agrees that his/her works are submitted for
jurying.
- Type of entries accepted: All illustration,
design, photography and animation from the Graphic Design,
Web Design or Digital Media program studio classes are
eligible for entry. Work done in the Fine Arts program is not eligible
for this show.
- Type of entries NOT accepted: Freelance work,
work-for-hire projects or non-classroom work are not eligible.
- Entry form: Entries must have a separate printed
entry form taped to back of each entry (ad campaigns containing
multiple pieces can be submitted as a single entry). All entries
must be submitted using the online
entry form.
- Print entries: All print entries should be presented
in a professional manner (prints with flaws will be disqualified). Whenever possible, entries should be
mounted flush on foam-core board (available at Art Coop
 ).
Multi-page documents (and series) should be submitted in a protective
envelope. Photographs may be dry mounted. Entries should not be
matted or
framed. A web-ready image file must be uploaded at the time you
fill out the entry form (see "Digital Exhibition" below).
- Dynamic media entries: Dynamic media files (web
sites, banner ads, Flash animation) must be submitted in a browser
compatible publishing format (HTML, GIF, SWF). Original authoring
files (Photoshop, Flash, Director) will not be accepted. Files
must be Internet-ready and published on a CD-ROM. In addition,
a color laser of a single representative page (including the browser
window) must be submitted mounted on
foam core (see print entries above). See
instructions for taking screenshots.
- Digital images and animations from CSIT: Digital Media students are to be submitted by copying imagery to a designated directory on Parkland's graphics server (see your instructor for the directory name). Image entries do NOT require hard-copy print and mounting preparation. Image entries must be submitted in TIF format and animations in Quicktime MOV format. Simply fill out the entry form for each submission, name the file using the artist's name and entry number indicated on the submission form (e.g. johnDoe103.tif, johnDoe104.mov), and copy to the designated directory. If an entry is for self-promotion purposes, indicate "self" as client on the submission form. Images should be entered as "illustration" not "animation." For additional information, see your instructor.
- Digital exhibition: Because the entire Student
Exhibition will be archived online as a "web catalog," you must also submit
a web-ready JPEG or GIF file for each entry (this is not required
for web entries or movies). Your web-ready image must be no wider
than 800 pixels (there is no height limit, but the maximum
file size is 200K). Please name your file with your last name in it (i.e. "smith-billboard2.jpg"). See
instructions on rasterizing print pieces (or talk to your instructor).
- Copyright infringement: Illustrations or photography
must be original or based on copyright-free stock. Unpublished
graphic design samples ("comps") may contain stock illustration
or photography but such usage must be indicated on the entry form.
Published graphic design pieces must have appropriate copyright
clearances. Parkland College will not be liable for students' plagiarism.
Work may be photographed by Parkland College and used for educational
purposes.
- Liability: Although every precaution will be
taken, Parkland College and its staff will not be responsible for
any loss of or damage to the works submitted, no matter how same
may be caused. Entrants submit works subject to this condition.
All accepted works must remain for the duration of the exhibit,
as placed by the gallery staff.

to room D026 according to the following schedule only. No work
will be accepted after the deadline.

of unless you state otherwise on the entry form at the time of
submission. Unaccepted work may be picked
up in room D026 between 10am and 2pm on Tuesday,
May 13.

June 24 from 9am–4:30pm. After June 24, you may
