Competition's brief:
'Artwork should complement Mogwai’s aesthetic and album artwork for this film. This is most easily conveyed through their website (http://www.mogwai.co.uk/order/us/), Facebook (www.facebook.com/mogwai) and in a clip from the film featuring “I’m Jim Morrison, I’m Dead” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5EfuLuN0VXs)'
The dimensions are wrong (not the one asked in the brief)...
And well done for still spelling the director's name wrong!!!!!!!
Le ScouarnEc with an 'E' and not an 'A'...
I personally find the design interesting but it doesn't complement AT ALL Mogwai’s aesthetic and album artwork.
This competition hasn't been fair and I think that it's not respecting all the designers who worked according to the f* brief.
Also for the organizers,CHECK THE SPELLING before running a competition!!!
Agreed with the first comment - how can they they specify constraints such as size and "artwork should complement Mogwai’s aesthetic and album artwork for this film" and then give the winning design to something completely and utterly different. Something stinks about the whole competition.
I was looking forward to seeing the winning entry, but it's something that contradicts every single rule set. A fucking joke.
