Below is an email John Gordon, Provost of Otis College of Art and Design forwarded to Otis faculty, in hopes of getting information out to Otis students and alumni, about a comic book publisher who is sponsoring a comic book artist competition.
I also would recommend, if you are interested the contest and in comics, you might take a look at the publisher’s own web site – Platinum Studios. Here’s the email:
“My name is Randy Greenberg and I’m the head of marketing for Platinum Studios, a comic book-based entertainment company based in Los Angeles. We are conducting a contest to find the next great comic book creator. This contest is open to anyone over the age of 18 in the United States. Entries are being accepted through May 31, 2007 at www.comicbookchallenge.com and we would like to be able to post this information somewhere on the Otis Campus or website for all Otis students to see.
Otis has some of the best and brightest artists/creators in America today and we want them to know that we are looking for them. We want to turn their dream of creating a comic book and getting it published and distributed around the world.
Please let me know if this possible to accomplish with Otis.
With many thanks and best regards,
Randy Greenberg”
