Positive Posters 2010
A bunch of young Melbournians are on a mission to show that graphic design can help people. And it’s time to enter their second annual poster design competition to help prove it.
From the 12th July to 10th September, Positive Posters are asking graphic designers all over the world to submit a positive design in response to the 2010 theme ‘a glass half full’.
Entry is free, and Positive Posters will print 4,000 copies of the winning design and paste it around Melbourne. And send a few off around the globe too. The aim is to challenge and inspire people to make a positive change in the way they live their lives.
“We started the competition last year with no expectations. But ended up with 339 entries, from 53 countries. The third most amount of entries was from Iran. We are still trying to figure that one out!” said competition founder, Nick Hallam.
The Positive Poster team hope to reach 1,000 entries this year.
The winner will also get prizes including Adobe CS5, Wacom Intuos 4 Tablet, Pantone Colour Bridge, Spook Mag Subscription, Fat Clothing Voucher and a Keep Cup.
Last years winner came from Slovakia. His poster was seen all over Melbourne, and travelled to the North and South Pole. The friendly faces of Positive Posters are a small group of young volunteers, mostly students and new graduates.
