So now that we have a title, we will need a cover for the movie, below, is all the stuff you need to create your very own DVD cover.

We will choose the top 5 or 10 and have a vote


RULES:

- The Title on the Cover must be "NS Movie Volume 1: First!!!"
(Please put most emphasis on the word "First!!!", since that is the actual title, the "NS Volume 1" should be in smaller letters than "First!!!")

- You must use the template provided below

- Only use pictures that you have the copyrights or permission for(this does not include the sample pics provided in the forum listed below)

- You must place all the sponsor logos provided somewhere on the DVD cover

- You must make a credits section on the back, please use fake names since you don't know who the riders are going to be yet

- The sponsor logos must be sized according to their importance:

Gold Sponsors:

Moment Skis
Jibij Pro Shop
Newschoolers.com

Silver Sponsors:

Tinga's Hats
Switch Gloves



PRIZES:

Winner will receive an NS Sticker pack and a hat from Tingas Hats, we may throw in some extra stuff. Plus you get bragging rights.

i like this but i think you need to change the font on the title and get rid of the the text bubble that says this is going to be on ns.

im on there, shit, better get those last couple shots that got lost so i can finish our edit.

haha, but this one is really clean looking, and incorporates one of the more unique pictures people put up. i'd say it's a toss up between this and ivan's, though i favor this cause it has my name, lol.

here's my entry:

Are you allowed multiple entries? I'm thinking of working on another one...


Also for you graphic experts, is there any way the colour in photos can be better on NS, my Illustrator pics always come out un-saturated and its really frustrating, is there some way so that what I see on the canvas on AI is exactly what it looks like on the web?

^ nice billy.

"little mounds of dirt they can ski hills in the east and mid-west since they have no real mountains"

"hopefully not too much backcountry since no one on here knows shit about safety"

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO USE ANY AND ALL OF THE PHOTOS/DESIGN WORK THAT ARE IN YOUR SUBMISSION.

I personally don't believe that the photog of the hooter brown photo has given his permission. Also the skier in the photo has no rights to the photo whatsoever. only the photog does.

then on the back make the inside of a thread that just has the pics
of the sponsors
