About showing your progress, isn't it a problem if you are showing off your progress and other see the design steal it and submit that concept before you have submitted it. And the other person will get away with your design? Or do you really look over the people here that people can't steal other when the designs are once showed here?

But showing off process could impress other designers or maybe even the jury. However not sure how much you can submit to let them see everything though. Because you can send max 1 mb to their email or show them the work on a server. 1mb isn't really much to work with because if I would put in the whole progress it could be more about 5 to 10 mb of materials even inside a low res pdf.

Thanks for your comments.

Yes, please keep the surprise factor and don't tell us all your packaging & design secrets yet!

This is a place to brainstorm and develop ideas with other designers together. By exchanging some of your work, tips, videos & resources you can leverage from the material & view points of others. By challenging each others ideas you might come up with a totally different approach...

...and maybe even surprise yourself with the outcome :)

Best wishes,

Mira

Hello,

Since we expect quite a number of submissions, there needs to be a limit so 1MB is part of the challenge.

You might want to use video, images (e.g. with animoto) or other online tools to display & explain the process of your work. Just make sure you add the URLs to the submission form so the jury can access your online pitch.

Best wishes,

Mira

Is there a possibility to still use this page made here as a submission. Because I saw there is possible to hide the uploaded vids for certain people and only show to friends or all. But should be extra possibility to show for jury only? This could make it easier so that this page can have more purpose then just talking about this contest.

At the moment there isn't really allot of activity in this forum. Seem allot just register and do nothing.
