Adobe Issues Call for Entries for 2009 Adobe Design Achievement Awards

San Jose, Calif. - Adobe Systems Inc. has issued a call for entries for the ninth annual Adobe Design Achievement Awards (ADAA). The competition honors the best student graphic designers, photographers, illustrators, animators, digital filmmakers, developers, and computer artists from accredited higher education institutions worldwide.

Now in partnership with the International Council of Graphic Design Associations (Icograda), the awards ceremony will be held
during the Icograda World Design Congress in Beijing, China in October 2009. The Congress will bring together 2,500 delegates from around the globe at the China National Convention Center, located in the heart of the Beijing Olympic Green.

As demand increases for talented designers and developers in the interactive design and development fields, the Adobe Design Achievement Awards spotlight the talented work of students in three media categories: Interactive Media, Motion Media, and Traditional Media.

Interactive Media categories include Browser-Based Design, Non-Browser Based Design, Application Development, Installation Design and Mobile Design.

Motion Media categories include Animation, Live Action and Motion Graphics.

Traditional Media categories include Illustration, Packaging, Photography, and Print Communications.
Open to students in 40 countries, the contest also draws attention to interactive design and development programs at some of the best accredited higher education institutions. Students are invited to submit projects through the Adobe Design Achievement Awards website. From the Web site, visitors will also be able to access ADAA Live!, an interactive website that lets visitors see participants submitting projects in real-time.

The 2009 Adobe Design Achievement Awards entries will be reviewed and scored by an independent panel of distinguished judges.

Submissions will be accepted online through June 5, 2009. The online submissions will be judged digitally in June. For the final phase of judging, semifinalists will be asked to submit their source files and a physical aspect of their entry as it is meant to be viewed. Finalists will be invited to Beijing, China and the Icograda World Design Congress and awarded software and cash prizes.

This contest has brought all the possible good talents in the computer world all in one place. It was a lively yet competitive atmosphere that made me amazed at the contender's level of skills. I hope that there would be future contests of this nature in the future. Rick at closet organizer systems

In my neck of the woods...three bright and creative high school students from Gregory-Portland High School are the Best-of-Best winners of the 2008 Adobe School Innovation Awards. They developed a “meaningful documentary about the scarring of seagrass and the effects on the local estuaries in the Coastal Bend area of Texas.
