Y-14. Proud Parent Advertisements
LIMIT 1 ENTRY. Note: 1 entry = a portfolio of 3 student-created advertisements
For one portfolio entry, submit three individual proud parent ads completely designed by student staff members. LIMIT ONE ENTRY PER SCHOOL. The ads may be on the same page/spread or may appear across multiple pages/spreads. If more than 3 ads appear on submitted pages, in the Additional Information field ON THE ENTRY FORM, INDICATE THE 3 ADS ON WHICH THE JUDGES SHOULD FOCUS. If you do not indicate specific ads, the judges will focus on the first three ads, starting at the upper left of the first page submitted and moving counter-clockwise through the pages. (In the “Non Student Work Copyright” field on the entry form, please describe any elements in the ads that are not created by the student entrant.) Submit a PDF or image file of the spreads including the advertisements.
