New Bloods Awards - allow immerging artists to submit work for various projects awards for judging. Recently qualified or training students are only those allowed to submit brief solutions to these awards.
New Bloods Awards - Monotype : This award is looking for a typography based solution to the urban street papers (Through INSP) in their transitional stage of print and digital magazines, whilst incorporating the personal side of the vendor and their community they are selling in. It is about researching a location, discovering its tone, stories, ways etc and then taking on board the issue/difference of print and digital media, as INSP incorporates working towards the digital future. This change is potentially unsettling for the vendors or the communities the paper represents, it is about sensitively (both through background research awareness and design solutions) presenting solutions that are inclusive, and also highly telling of a location.
Feel this brief would suit my theme of exploring the rise of hand lettering in the arena of digital design. I may have to alter my question a little to focus it more astutely to this brief. But research i have already done on various forms of hand lettering ( letter press, calligraphy, etc) or on hand rendered letter sketches or contemporary artists i have looked into who are hand letterers or typographers - will all be highly applicable research base to build upon.
