Here is the current information of the queentribute.de-project:
This goes out to all you creative and productive people. As you might know, our album is currently in the final mixing process so we started to talk about what to do artwork wise. We came up with the idea of having a contest. That way all of you are able to be part of our full length CD. The procedure is simple: We’ll upload all artworks into our facebook and myspace picture section and you can go there and comment on it. The artwork with the most comments wins.
Facts:
We want you and your ideas to be as free as possible so there are only a few things you should be aware of. Please don't use the official Queen-Logo or Queen-Fotos. The record is entitled “Queen Tribute” or "A Tribute to Queen". A subtitle fitting to your artwork is optional. (Suggestions: "Crazy Little Thing Called Rock", Anotherone Rides The Bus", "Gunpowder Gelatine")
In order to have a coherent look, we would ask a front cover and an inlay card of you. Please make sure to meet the specs so that there won’t be any problems with it. Of course we reserve the right to not upload jokey or offensive artworks.
What’s in there for you as a designer?
First of all it’s all about the fame, but for those of you who need a little persuasion, here is what’s planned.
- Your artwork will be used for the final record, that you’ll get one of for free, when it’s done and in sale
- Massive promotion for you and your work. We’d love to give your name and your website on all record-related locations.
- If possible, we are going to print some fancy shirts with your artwork. Of course you’ll get one of these for free
So please tell everyone you know who might be interested in taking part about the contest.
Send your artwork (previews are okay) to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Deadline is 31st October, after that the voting / commenting will start for ten days.
