when its time for galleries .... - GoFuckYourself.com

lil2rich4u2 · 07-31-2003, 01:04 AM

should i have one of those contests and give alot of people a shot?

or just contract a few indeviduals.

i was thinking contest only because it will give me good idea of who i can contract for additional work.

I was thinking like a $1,000 contest. 100 entries minimum ....

hadnt given it too much thought yet, just wondering

?

100 entries minimum is ridiculous.

thekebie · 07-31-2003, 01:06 AM

Just give me a $1000.

John3 · 07-31-2003, 01:07 AM

why in the fuck would you throw away $1000 on galleries, when you've already seen the work of pretty much every design person here.

It's not like the extra 'publicity' will go a long way for you

detoxed · 07-31-2003, 01:08 AM

100 entries minimum per person would have been even more ridiculous.

Because in a contest like CFF's they have to design the galleries and submit them. Plus they get great galleries for thehun listings.

tootie · 07-31-2003, 01:10 AM

100 entries is a bit steep to expect unless you're a big sponsor. There aren't a whole lot of designers out there who do quality work that are willing to take a chance on a contest, especially where there is only one chance to win. They could spend that time making galleries for paying clients and have a sure thing.

If you do a contest, you should have more than one prize so that designers feel like they have a better chance to win something. Maybe a $500 prize, a $200 prize and 3 prizes at $100 each. That's five chances to win and I think more people would enter that way.

No, I understand that.

I'm just thinking that whatever this program is it won't exactly be on the level of a CFF promotion.

im also thinking maybe to make it a contest with 50 entries minimum? $500 top prize?

the additional $500 i can use to pay the winner for more of his good owrk.

dunno, its all so new to me.

yes i know im not even on same playing feild as CFF, i just need galleries, no promotion.

why not speak for yourself?

there are plenty of designers or gallery people that would love a chance for some cash.

John3 · 07-31-2003, 01:20 AM

if it were me I'd pay a good designer upfront for the galleries, and use the leftover money for promotion
