Map, prizes and timeline

Prizes
There is the obvious incentive that if the designs are of a high enough standard we would be willing pay significant sums to push your designs through the planning process and ultimately pay for the production and installation costs on your behalf, this will be a cost to the alliance of somewhere in the region of c£3,000+, this excludes the costs involved relating to repair/construction of the hoardings which could mean another £6 - 8,000.

However we also understand that course materials and living costs whilst studying at university mean a financial incentive also helps encourage you to deliver good designs, we have therefore set out the following financial reward.

Hoardings project
£250 for the best overall design (design to be worked up to a standard suitable for production).

Logo development (competition for logo redesign on hold whilst we develop new corporate brand)
£100 best design
£150 production of style and brand guidelines (subject to our decision to progress design).

Timeline
Concept designs to be uploaded by 6pm on 20th July. Comments and feedback will be given on designs uploaded prior to this date, allowing for amends and changes.

Post 20th July a selection of designs will be asked to be refined, 21st - 30th July design refinement.
30th July selection panel will meet to select best design.

Post 1st August decision will be taken as to whether to install design, working in partnership with designer to get designs in a format for production.

Any queries please feel free to contact your tutor or post the query on this blog, apologies if it takes a while for me to respond, we have a number of projects running simultaneously.
