Arlyn Award - Outstanding Design in Puppetry Theater $1000 prize

[LoLa]

I was doing some research online, and came across this. Didn't see it posted, so I thought I would mention it. It's an award given out every two years for puppetry design.

Here are the requirements:

Entries consist of:
a) A portfolio containing: not more than ten original designs and photographs of a single production premiered in the calendar years 2010 or 2011,
b) A brief outline of the designer's intent and,
c) A video, edited to 5 minutes maximum, showing how effectively the designs work in the a performance. The video should be in Video for Flash format so it can be viewed on a computer.
To ensure unbiased judging, the video and photos should not have visible identification. All items will be catalogued and numbered before the Jury receives them.
d) On a separate page provide the following details:
Name of Designer:
Production Title:
Premier Date:
Name of Director:
Name of Puppet Troupe:
Mailing Address:
e-mail Address (if available):
Age Level of Target Audience:
Touring or Non-touring Production:
Only one entry per person per competition will be accepted.

The problem is that you would have to get your stuff together fast, and get it there, since:Entries for the 2010-11 competition must be received by
15 February, 2012.
