Categories

Up to two pieces of work may be submitted per category.

Submission Requirements:

Please send submissions based on the following naming conventions and file types and sizes below to ECGA2013@gmail.com. The subject line should say which category you are submitting to, e.g. Digital Photography. Each category submission will need a separate email. Thus, if you had two submissions for Digital Photography they could be in one email, but if you had another submission in 3D Modeling you would need to submit it in another email properly titled. Be sure to include the title of your submission(s) in your email.

If you will be making two submissions in a single category place a 1 and 2 in the filename, for example: DigitalPhotography_lastname_firstname_1_2013ECGA.jpg and DigitalPhotography_lastname_firstname_2_2013ECGA.jpg

Do not place the name of your piece(s) in the filename. You may state the names of your piece(s) in the body of the email when making the submission.

*Animation submissions: follow the file naming convention listed below and place your animation in the ECGA folder located in the turn-in directory in the lab. There are two folders within the ECGA folder: Digital Animation and Story-based Animation.
