Competitions!!

I've been browsing the internet for some multimedia & design based competitions to enter into for both fun and experience, to get a chance to see how well your work can do, and this will give you some confidence in what you do and boost your morale.

Some competitions I found are listed here:

http://www.e4.com/estings/index.html - this is a channel 4 competition where you can create a short animation for the production and advertisement of E4. There are main prizes to be won, and the best of the bunch will be posted on the website aswell. This years competition is over, but they have it every year and I am hopefully going to enter next year by creating an animation of my own!

http://www.computerarts.co.uk/in_depth/features/ten_best_design_competitions - this is a website post that features the 10 best competitions on the uk design scene at the moment. These competitions are aimed at both experienced designers and students like us trying to show our skills off! There is a list of all 10 competions below followed by roughly the area of design that competition is based around. For a short explanation of each competition click the above link.
