WHAT : CALL OUT – Designers / Artists
DEADLINE : 3rd May 2012

In association with Semi-Permanent, Tractor is proud to announce the launch of a new design competition. Semi-Permanent is turning 10 this year and to celebrate we’re looking to create a poster or a motion piece that communicates their core philosophy of “Speaking to the individual”.
The Brief : Create either an A2 poster or a motion graphics piece that communicates “The Individual”.
Dimensions
- If you’re creating an A2 poster use dimensions 420 mm wide x 594 mm high, 300 dpi, CMYK with a 5 mm bleed if needed.
- Save a version for the online gallery as a JPEG 1,000 pixels wide 72 dpi, RGB.
- If you’re producing a motion graphics piece you’ll need to keep the length at no more than 60 seconds long and upload it to YouTube, Vimeo etc.
Submission
- All entries must be submitted by Thursday 3 May 2012.
- Send BOTH versions of your poster files or your link to hello@tractordesignschool.com.au If the file size is over 10mb please use yousendit
- Include your full name, the city you live in and a brief description up to 100 words of your project. You might like to include your website and twitter links too, which will be displayed with your entry.
Entry requirements
Entry to the competition is open to all designers including students and professionals. You’re free to use any media you like in your design (e.g. 3D, Illustration, photography, vector).You’re welcome to submit multiple entries.
Judging Criteria
10 finalists and 10 runners up will be chosen. The twenty entries will form an exhibition to be held at District 01 on Thursday 10 May 2012.
Tractor will review the entries before they are officially entered into the competition. Any entries that Tractor feels have not met the brief will be returned to the designer with feedback detailing the reason and suggestions to improve the work (This is an important phase in the process for Tractor and is not designed to upset the entrants, but to ensure that each entry has the best chance it can and that the good folks at Semi-Permanent receive a high level of entrants).
Of the 10 finalists, a winner will be selected by some of the speakers from the Semi-Permanent conference. The winner will be announced during the conference in Sydney.
All artwork remains the property of the designer and will only be used by Tractor/Semi-Permanent in the course of running and promoting the competition and exhibition. The exhibition will be held at District 01, 74-76 Oxford Street, Darlinghurst 2010 from 6:30pm on Thursday 10 May 2012.
