ABOUT
HEY THERE, DELILAH
Hello, I haven't logged in AFF in ages and realized I have karma points that are rotting away LOL. What better way to get rid of them than a graphic contest? I haven't been seeing a lot of shops recently, but ideally, this sparks more of the community to design. Old or new graphic designers are welcome! Let's all inspire each other, yeah? :)
THE GUIDELINES & PRoMPTS

1. All works must be based off a category and prompt, which are listed below.

2. All works must be your own and specifically made for this contest (i.e. no old / existing story posters).

3. All works must have the prompt number + "entry for hey there, delilah" somewhere. You can alter this as you see fit, as long as it's obviously an entry for this contest.

4. There are no character specifics. You are free to use anybody you wish or even not add a person into your poster.

5. Ends on October 23 November 13, but you can ask for an extension if you need more time to complete your entry.

For any more questions or concerns, please ask in the comments.

CATEGORY: TITLE
— all entries must include any of the given words as the poster's title or main text. feel free to add more text, as long as the given word is present in your poster.

Prompt 1

CATEGORY: MEDIA
— all entries must be inspired by an existing piece of media (movies, tv shows, books, anime) except for fanfics. how you wish to use it in your poster (title, theme, quote, characters, etc.) is up to you.

Prompt 2

CATEGORY: MUSIC

CATEGORY: ANIMATION

THE RUBRICPRIZES

First impression: (overall first glance thoughts) [10]

Prompt Compatibility: (connection of the prompt to your entry) [60 total]
+ Usage of prompt: [30]
+ Photos or Textures: [30]

Typography: (usage of font, text visibility, style or colours, and placement) [30]

Bonus Points: (simply my own preferences as the judge) [20]

Total: 120/100

The judging will follow this rubric, but it won't be publicized except for the final score of the winners. I'm just letting you know for transparency. Designers may request for their breakdown once the results are out! :)

Notice that I didn't include "originality" or "creativity" in the scoring because I believe that art takes inspiration from other art (but of course, don't plagiarize or heavily copy something, I would know!) and everybody shows their creativity differently. 

If you are interested in donating more kps to the prize pool, please let me know! It'll give our talented designers more appreciation. Your username will also be listed as a sponsor.

There will be an overall winner with the highest score and separate winners per category, excluding the main winner's category, so I can give away karma fairly given the different prompts.

Category Winners (3): 1000kps
Overall Winner (1): 1500kps 


Bonus prizes may be given!
 

ENTRY FORM

Please make a blogpost for each entry you will submit so the contest can get more attention! Include the banner and a link back to this main page. Comment the form below with the blog link. One entry per comment, please, so I can keep track.

You may enter twice per category.

Prompt:
— for 1: let me know the chosen word and how you used it for the poster
— for 2: let me know the movie or show you chose and how it inspired the poster
— for 3: let me know the song, lyrics, etc. you chose and how it inspired the poster

Feel free to talk about what you wanted your graphic to represent (e.g. if it has a story, a message, a deeper theme, any personal meaning) but make sure it's still connected to the prompt.

I'm excited to see all your lovely works!

prompt #3 :
—For this poster, I used lyrics of this very y/ song by Taemin, known as "slave". Minho's picture is from a photo shoot while Taemin's pictures are from his "door" performance. So this poster is inspired by both songs as it follows a / mature concept.

prompt #2 :
—This one is heavily inspired by the movie "call me by your name". I tried my best to make all the graphics very simple as the original poster follows a minimalist concept. And I used the above picture because the movie has lots of scenes of the pair riding their bicycles together, and it has scenes near the beach as well.

category : Title
prompt :Wonderland
—I wanted this poster to have an angst/ sad vibe, where the two of them are trying to chase a 'wonderland' or so a happy ending in their life/ relationship by running away from their problems, even if they already know that it's not going to make any difference. This quote is taken from Key's BAD LOVE. The original lyrics are "even if I run away, there's no Paradise" but I changed it a bit to match the words.

prompt #3 :
—For this poster I used lyrics of "god this feels good" by Isaac Dunbar. This song gives a dreamy feeling, so I decided to make a poster which gives the same feeling.

prompt #2:
—This poster is inspired by the movie "Now you see me" . The plot centers around the actions of a team of Magicians/ con artists named "The Four Horsemen" (spoiler alert! It turns out to be five) I followed the same concept and made this poster.

Category: animation
Prompt:
— burst!! space and explosions are always something that i revel in and it just so happens that they work rlly well together too?? i was going for somewhat of a guardians of the galaxy-type thing where doja is this y space chick that flies a cool spacecraft and just blows stuff up, hence "saturn ticking" and the huge space burst in the background :> i just rlly love the colors of space so that's mostly what i focused on bringing out in the poster tbh and i had a rlly fun time doing it!

btw, bc of how inspired i was by this design, i made a bunch of different elements and stuff which i posted abt on my portfolio (https://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/1342226/35)!! u can check it out if ur curious, i just wanted u to know how much fun i had doing all this- ur prompts are great!
here's the link to my blog post :> https://www.asianfanfics.com/blog/view/1303014

joining again with two entries for category one c:

Username: augustflower / shu
Graphic Link(s): https://i.imgur.com/B9H7vNx.png + https://i.imgur.com/zJ0neEI.png
Category: title
Prompt:
— for falling: the general idea behind both was to make them a full contrast while still using the same characters, hence why both have hueningkai and somi. for this one, i played with the title "falling for you" and made it "falling for hue" instead to match kai's name. it's pretty simple overall with the focus mainly being on the text style where i worked on making it look fun and fluffy for a romcom vibe.
— for promise: to contrast the first poster i made, i wanted this one to have that eerie and dark vibe, taking the word "promise" and making it sound more ominous than sweet. the imagery i had was something loosely inspired by beauty and the beast but with a darker theme, which i'm hoping was captured by somi and kai's expressions? rather than a title, the text works more like a quote.

here's the blog post, thank you !! c:
