I just got an e-mail about the Flux student design competition, and it sounds like something our students should enter. The deadline is just 2 weeks away, the work can be uploaded instead of printing and mounting, and the entry fees are low. Call for entries for the Third Annual AIGA BlueRidge Flux Student Design Competition. The Panel of judges include Jessica Hische, Jeffery Everett, and Rachel Elnar.
Graduate and undergraduate school projects, freelance and pro bono work created between August 2007–October 2008 are eligible. Yep, that means anything done in the last year. Categories include posters, packaging, publication, identity, web & interactive. Fees are $5 per entry. Register and upload your entry online. Selected entries will be posted in the online gallery. A reception & award ceremony will be held October 25 at the Blue Elephant Art Center in Frederick, MD. Ten awards will be given for Best and Honorable Mention in each category. Work must be received by Friday, October 3 to be eligible.
