That Poster Show: Season Six – Call for Entries!

Coming this fall, That Poster Show: Season Six, featuring the theme of TELEVISION! We’re in a golden age of television, and it’s time to embrace it. We’re back for the best poster season yet, and looking for artists ready to show us what they’ve got.

What are you binge-watching lately? What show did you grow up with that holds a special place in your heart? What show do you recommend to all of your friends? What are you still hung up over being canceled WAY TOO SOON?

Pick a show and design a poster inspired by it! All submissions will be reviewed by a few carefully selected critics, and a juried exhibition of the top entries will be on display at our season premiere in October. You don’t want to miss that party!! All posters in the show will be up for the chance to win the People’s Choice Award and a prize! Prints of all chosen posters will also be for sale at the event. Proceeds will fund AIGA Atlanta’s event programming.

Even if your poster is not chosen for the show, you’ll get free entry into the show in October! Keep checking back here for updates on judges, sponsors, prizes, and party details.

Open Call Entry Deadline is August 21. No exceptions!

FAQS

Is there a submission fee?

Nope! Your time and talent is payment enough! Plus you’ll get free entry to the Poster Show party!

Can my submission be created in another medium?

You can use ANY medium to create your poster, but we’ll ultimately need a digital file at the correct size so we can print it.

Can I submit more than one design?

Absolutely, but we may not be able to exhibit more than one design.

What about copyright restrictions?

Due to copyright laws, we encourage you to completely reimagine any television artwork. You must not use any photography, illustration, tv stills or fonts that you do not have the rights to. AIGA Atlanta reserves the right to disqualify any piece we feel infringes on any copyright.

How will the posters be printed?

The chosen submissions will be printed digitally by our amazing sponsor, Standard Press! We’ll display the posters in their full Emmy-winning glory at both 18” x 24” and a smaller portable size.

How will I know if my poster is chosen for the show?

All artists whose posters are chosen will be notified by mid-September.

How will the posters be sold?

By submitting artwork for this event, you are giving AIGA Atlanta permission to print digital copies of your submission. Up to 20 copies of your artwork (at two sizes) will be available for sale at the show and in the future to raise funds for AIGA Atlanta.
