Young
Digital Artist - Rules
This
is a local competition for 11 to 19 year olds in the area covered by the four
Rotary clubs. It is designed to
encourage the production of digital artifacts of artistic merit. These could take the form of web pages or files
in a standard format that may contain a combination of text, moving and/or
still images.
Eligibility: The competition is open to anyone aged
between 11 and 19 years old on 31st August of the year preceding the
competition who lives, works or studies in the towns of Welwyn Garden City,
Hatfield, Potters Bar or Brookmans Park or the immediately surrounding areas of
Hertfordshire.
Age
groups: The judging will be done in
three separate age groups; junior for
11-13 year olds, Intermediate for 14-16 year olds and Senior for 17-19 year
olds. Collaborative entries are allowed, but they will be entered in the age
group of the oldest member of the group and this will be taken into account in
the judging.
Judging: There will be a panel of three judges with artistic
or media backgrounds. Entries will be
judged on artistic merit and technical achievement, the two aspects being
equally weighted. The judges will
normally wish to interview the authors of winning entries to ensure the work’s
authorship.
Use
of elements from other sources: It is permissible to incorporate elements which
are not original providing that they are copyright-free or the copyright
holder’s permission for their use has been obtained. The use must be
acknowledged and the details of the source given.
Closing

the end of May. Winners will be informed
by 10th July at the latest and results will be notified to all
entrants
