Ok, so we want to give this a shot and see how it goes.
The contest is quite simple, but does have a couple of MANDATORY IMPORTANT guidelines.
First off the contest is to design a DVD Box cover art for our 2008 release, Overlooked. We are going to select the best one based on what we think will look the best and hopefully use it. The winner will receive a free copy of Overlooked as well as a free copy of our 2009 film, and possibly some other goodies.
Guidelines are...
-You must use this template here at full size. http://img396.imageshack.us/my.php? image=dvdcasewraptemplatehs7.png
-In addition you must make the picture 300dpi or your cover art will not be able to be printed (the current templates settings are already at 300).
All submissions must be emailed to bentley@dosmedia.net.
If you would like to post them on this forum to show others and rate others as well then feel free too. We are taking others opinions into consideration.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Thank you,
Bentley Atteberry

Feel of the art (ideally to match the movie)
things you do or don't want to see on the cover?

also, any textual information you want on the front/back cover?? Aside from the title, skier names? brief description? sponsor names/images? We could just use a little more info on what exactly you're looking for homie. Thanks mang.

Ok, so I am going to try to answer all of the questions above. This should clear things up quite a bit and make it a little bit better of a contest.
Type of movie we have is split pretty much into thirds. Third park, Third backcountry, and a third urban.
As of colors we are into a more brighter and upbeat movie.
You can find tons of pictures and such in our news updates page here...
https://newschoolers.com/web/content/viewcult/action/news/id/4161/
I will be making a separate photo bucket account with tons of pictures just for this contest.
If you incorporate our website it is www.dosmedia.net and currently under construction.
Also if you want to incorporate sponsors right now we have Salomon (skis and snowboards), Bonfire, Moment Skis, Boone Skis, Newschoolers.com, with Moment Skis and Boone Skis as our title sponsors (biggest logos). That may change though.
Ill let everyone know when the photobucket is set up for everyone to grab pictures off of. For now feel fre to use the news updates.

Anymore questions feel free to ask.

What kind of look are you after? tongue in cheek humor, or something really stylish, do you want the dvd cover to resemble the look of your website, or something totally different ?

well, originally... we felt our athletes, our edits, our company, were all overlooked. none of them were hooked up, no one thought anything of our edits or company. and we thought we were overlooked.
Now that most of the riders are getting the respect they deserve, getting hooked up, as is DOS... its kind of like welll you overlooked all of us.. but now look.

my take atleast
