Graphics contest against the risk of noise

Posted March 25, 2008 in Computing by Did

disclaimer To make known to the young risks of overexposure to noise, SantéVie organizing a competition for graphic designers. € 2,500 of prizes to win and that's a good cause! :-)

The goal is to create a poster illustrating the risks of noise to our ears, especially among youth. Shifting of the music, discos and concerts is becoming stronger. Your poster should illustrate this phenomenon more and more threatening.

SantéVie

On this subject I speak knowingly, having lost some hearing because of the heavy-metal concerts where I was often being young. It does not seem very awkward and it's true in most situations. But when I'm in a room with a lot of noise, I do not hear what I hear. Not easy to follow conversations in a bar for example. : -?

So to warn young people and prevent them understand anything that says the pretty girl in front of them in a box, you can enter this contest and make a poster for the fight against noise pollution.


Risk hearing

Your document has these characteristics:

  • final size A1 (594x841mm)
  • 300dpi resolution
  • CMYK mode
  • and if you want to use pictures, you can use only those provided on the site.

Then begins the journey of the designer-fighter! Apparently an online form to send the file, it would have been too simple story while repelling the participants, you must:

  1. register online at www.santevie.fr
  2. burn a CD made ​​of your creation in a file named "Nom_Prénom1" and a text file with your details and "creative approach" calls "Nom_Prénom2" (normally file extensions will be different, but there must be 1 and 2, I 'm just copying!).
  3. print your design on A4 paper
  4. find an A4 envelope, a CD pocket, stamps
  5. and go to the post office to send it by mail no later than May 31, 2008.

Explanations and full rules are available on the contest page on the site risks SantéVie hearing .

The 3 winners will have their work displayed in the agencies of mutual SantéVie and win:

  • 1st prize: Wacom Cintiq 12WX (Mac / PC) worth € 1300
  • 2nd Prize: Laptop HP COMPAQ 6820S worth € 850
  • 3rd Prize: Digital Camera PANASONIC LUMIX DMC-FZ8EF-S worth € 350

Given the need to spend a CD, stamps and have a printer to participate, you have all your chances. :-P I find it a shame that in the competition is not easy because the message is important.
