Artist Competition: Design the cover of the Gayming Awards 2021 brochure

The Gayming Awards 2021 are four months away and we’re ramping up preparation for the show. Every good Awards show needs a brochure, or program, to showcase the nominees, sponsors and other features, and YOU could have your art featured on the front cover for the world to see in this amazing competition!

The Gayming Awards brochure will be downloaded by thousands of people around the world as they watch the show in late February 2021 and your art could be front and centre on the cover!

We’re looking for LGBTQ artists to enter this amazing competition to design the front cover for our historic, world’s first LGBTQ video game award show.

In addition to having your art feature on the front cover, the winning artist will receive a £100 voucher for the online platform shop of their choice (Nintendo eShop, Microsoft Store, PlayStation Store, Steam Wallet, etc), plus an in-depth interview which will be published both here on Gayming Magazine and also in the Award show brochure itself.

Brief

Here’s the brief…

• The cover should be a celebration of LGBTQ video games and the spirit of success. This is the world’s first ever LGBTQ video game awards, the image should capture the celebratory and moment defining nature of the event. It is also a global celebration and the image should endeavour to reflect that.
• The image can be as literal or as symbolic as you chose – there is no right or wrong approach to the task
• Please do not use any copyrighted characters or symbols
• The image should be 148 x 210mm with a 3mm bleed
• It should be produced at 300 dpi
• The image should be submitted as a PDF
• Remember in your design that a Masthead will be added to the top

Our panel of judges will decide on the winner and the winning artist will be notified by email in early January. The winning artist will then be invited to collaborate with our designer on the final preparation of the cover.
