Anime Art Academy x ASVOFF

ILLUSTRATION CONTEST

This November 10-13th sees the 14th year of ASVOFF's annual international fashion, style and beauty film festival, presented by Diane Pernet!


Not only has Anime Art Academy been invited to judge their brand new Anime and Manga category, we are also excited to be running a special illustration contest in collaboration with ASVOFF!


This contest is open exclusively to students and friends of Anime Art Academy, and offers participants the exciting chance to have their work announced and featured both at the festival, and on ASVOFF's popular social media pages.

This is an amazing chance to win some publicity for your work, and get yourself out there as an artist!

CONTEST THEME


ASVOFF and Anime Art Academy would love for you to draw one or both of the following:

🞇 An illustration of ASVOFF founder Diane Pernet

🞇 An ASVOFF logo, in "anime/manga" style


Please see the following Google drive, where you can see pictures of Diane for reference. She has a unique and striking style, and it will be so much fun to see her drawn in all of your original manga art styles!

For the logo, you might be wondering what constitutes as "anime/manga style", but anything from simply using a "pop" comic style for the letters, to actually including anime characters in the logo is great! We just want to see your creativity at work!

WHAT IS ASVOFF?


ASVOFF (A Shaded View on Fashion Film) is the world’s first film festival dedicated to fashion, style, and beauty founded by fashion icon Diane Pernet.

Since its launch in 2008, ASVOFF has gained critical acclaim for encouraging both emerging and established artists to reconsider the way that fashion is presented and for challenging the conventional parameters of film. ASVOFF tours the globe with screenings at prestigious institutions and events like the Centre Pompidou, the Guggenheim, the Barbican, Art Basel Miami, CaixaForum Barcelona, the Franz Mayer Museum, and the Cannes Film Festival in a host of creative capitals such as New York, London, Tokyo, Milan, Moscow, and Mexico City.


ASVOFF is not only a competition of short fashion, style, and beauty films but also a traveling international event showcasing feature films, documentaries, conferences, performances, and installations – making it a must-see on both the fashion calendar and the film circuit for its genre-bending and ground-breaking program.

ASVOFF'S NEW ANIME CATEGORY



The worlds of Manga and Anime, through the mediums of film and online gaming, have opened up whole new desires and opportunities. 


In the past, brands have traditionally relied on photographers, stylists and creatives – but now, they are turning their attentions to a new generation of artists; to shape and convey their images within a digitally driven and multi-cultural 21st century. 


This makes the ongoing development of both the Manga and Anime fields a highly lucrative and sought-after one. The mission of ASVOFF 14’s brand new category is to showcase these digital talents, which are at the precipice of the Manga and Anime worlds and sit within today’s revered fashion film genre.

Anime Art Academy students - YOU are this brand new generation of artist! And this is your chance to get out there and show your work to the world!



Best of luck to all contestants in both the art and film contests!
