Illustrators- don't forget that we are hosting a banner contest!
Our SCBWI Webpage needs a new banner!
Create an image that represents our beautiful region to highlight on our SCBWI website. Part of this image will also be used as our SCBWI logo for our Instagram and other media. Eventually, we may use the image for bookmarks to hand out at events too.
Any illustrator located in Montana is eligible to compete. The winner will receive one year of free membership to SCBWI and, of course, exposure and kudos galore!
All final images must be mailed to Illustrator Coordinator Jeanne Bowman at montana-ic@scbwi.org by MARCH 31st.
Image MUST fit these specifications:
-
The final entry must be a digital file measuring 1600 x 500 pixels (wide x tall).
-
Image resolution must be saved at 300 ppi (pixels per inch).
-
If you are creating a physical piece of art the corresponding ratio is 22 inches x 7 inches but the final image must still be scanned or photographed at 300 dpi.
-
All files must be saved as a .jpg or .png
-
Label your file as SCBWIBannerContest_Firstname_Lastname_date
The winning artwork will be chosen by the SCBWI Montana regional team and announced mid-April.
A note about the subject matter: We want you to create an image that is kid-lit appropriate and that expresses appreciation for the state of Montana. Think fun and playful! You can use animals, people, or landscapes in your image -- the possibilities are open to you! Please do NOT use text in your image. That will be added later. If you are stuck for ideas, check out the SCBWI website and look at some of the other regional banners for inspiration.
Thank you for participating. We can't wait to see your work!
