Young Ones 2014 Briefs Released

young ones college competition
I’m delighted to announce the release of the 2014 Young Ones Competition briefs, which will let you and your students get to work on this year’s entries in advance of ourMarch 7 deadline.
We’re presenting two brief options for 2014: one, a traditional structured brief, comes from fashion label Organic by John Patrick; the second, in a new style for The One Club, is an open create-your-own-client brief to Save the Arts, developed in partnership with Serviceplan. We think the two present an exciting range of entry points—take a look, share with your students, and let us know if you have any questions.
The full entry site will be up and running in the coming weeks, we’ll keep you posted about that. And be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter for the most up-to-date competition news, including opportunities to get a deeper perspective on the briefs directly from the clients.
I hope you all are saving the dates for Creative Week, May 5-9, the perfect opportunity for us to get together here in New York. With the Young Ones Awards Ceremony at its core, the week will once again present an invaluable chance for students and educators to mix and mingle with the professionals, building important contacts and connections.
Best regards,
Emily G.

The two winning prezi creators (one by popular vote and one by staff selection) will receive a 2014 spring break “dreamternship” in the Prezi San Francisco office, where they will have a chance to network and receive advice from tech industry insiders (flight and lodging included). For those entering as teams, one student must be designated as the “dreamternship” participant (only student team members are eligible for this opportunity).
The two colleges or universities with the winning prezis will receive free Prezi EDU PRO licenses for a duration of one year for their entire population of students, staff and faculty
