SECAUCUS, NJ – Rose Brand noted that applications for the 2015 Action Design Competition, to take place during the USITT Conference in Cincinnati, OH this March, are now being accepted. The competition pits four teams of student designers and technicians against one another in a rivalry for prizes and bragging rights. Pictured here is last year’s winning entry.
More details from Rose Brand (www.rosebrand.com):
The students work together creating a 10’ x 10’ scenic environment, from concept to creation, in four hours or less. The REAL challenge, however, is that participants won’t know what supplies they have, who they’re working with, or what the theme is until they arrive at the conference.
Winning teams are chosen based on a combination of social media votes and ballots at the Rose Brand booth. A panel of judges will determine individual winners for best scenic, technical, costume, and lighting designer.
Students wishing to participate in this year’s competition should submit an application via the Rose Brand website at http://bit.ly/ActionDesign2015. The application deadline is Feb. 23, 2015.
