Winter Carnival Council invites submissions for the WINTER CARNIVAL POSTER OR T-SHIRT
based on the theme:
Dartmouth College of Icecraft & Blizzardry:
A Magical Winter Carnival
The chosen POSTER SUBMISSION wins $400
The chosen T-SHIRT DESIGN wins $250
Concerning posters and t-shirts, please be aware of the following guidelines:
•
Posters & T-Shirt design submissions should reflect the theme, “Dartmouth College of Icecraft & Blizzardry: A Magical Winter Carnival."
•
This theme should be combined with a strong connection to Dartmouth and traditional winter events.
•
Designs MUST be original content and may not include trademarked or copywritten properties, names, or images*
- References to widespread magical concepts (e. g. wizards, wands, spells, potions, castles, magical creatures) are permissible
•
Any medium is acceptable
•
Posters should be created at 'poster size’ (24” x 30" or 24” x 36”) so that we do not need to blow up the poster and ruin the quality of your work.
-
Digital designs can be saved at a smaller size for submission to reduce file size.
•
To keep the printing cost down, your
t-shirt design may contain at most 2-3 colors.
•
You may submit more than one design.
Submission Process:
·
Posters can be submitted via Blitz to Winter Carnival Council, or dropped off to Collis 303 (for t-shirt designs, digital submission is encouraged).
·
Digital submissions should fit the following specifications:
-
300 DPI, CMYK color
-
Digital designs can be saved at a smaller size for submission to reduce file size

Please submit using .jpeg or .pdf file (if selected we will ask for your original file: .psd, .ai, etc.)
