About the Comics Contest:
The Lakeland Community College Comics Contest recognizes amateur artists in various age groups for work in comic strip and graphic fiction.
During the 2008 Contest, a panel of judges comprised of industry professionals will review entries and winners will be announced at the Wednesday March 26th Symposium/Book Discussion.
Contest entrants need not attend Symposium.
All entries will be displayed at the Symposium and Symposium participants will participate as judges to select an additional "People's Choice" winner.
The Lakeland Community College Comics Contest is not an "art contest." There are many elements to comics and graphic fiction two of which are writing and illustrating and you need not be proficient in both to have your work evaluated.
Submissions will be judged on important comics and graphic fiction criteria such overall concept, copywriting, storyline, visual composition, ability to convey topic and tone, originality and development of characters, technical proficiency, and, for comic strip submissions, humor.
