Time running out to enter Construction New Media Awards

Closing date for entries to the Construction New Media Awards is Friday, 15 February 2008, so be sure to get those entries in on time. The awards, now in its eighth year, honours and accredits those designers, writers, programmers and thinkers who produce challenging, imaginative interactive work, both on a creative and a functional platform.

Due to popular demand, the Construction New Media Awards has reopened to entries by professionals. Entries from South African and international students are also encouraged.

Entries can qualify in one of four categories, namely: online, offline, motion graphics and innovation. Innovation is a new category inspired by the constant redefinition of the digital space.

A gold trophy will be awarded in each category at a ceremony during the Design Indaba Conference 2008, with one overall winner receiving the Grand Prix.

While there may be no fortune in winning an award, the opportunity to have your work viewed by the renowned judges – Andries Odendaal (Wireframe, Cape Town), Patrick Burgoyne (Creative Review, London) and Simon Waterfall (Poke, London) – is not to be missed. The top student winner will receive a trip to the UK to work alongside an acclaimed designer.
