Contest Brief

Awaken the die-hard Star Wars fan in you!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the seventh edition of the highly anticipated movie franchise, premieres on December 18, 2015. At the D23 Expo a few weeks ago, famed poster artist’s Drew Struzan’s official illustration was revealed in a poster design showing the characters of Finn, Kylo Ren, Rey, and Han Solo.

However, that was just a promotional limited edition poster for the D23 attendees. It was reported that Struzan is likely to create another one, which will be the primary poster for the film. What do you think it would look like?

WHAT WE WANT YOU TO DO

Submit an illustration of your own design of what you think the main Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie poster should look like!

THE RULES

1. The design must be your ORIGINAL work. Downloaded posters from the previous Star Wars movies are highly unacceptable. Get ideas and inspiration from The Force Awakens teasers and information you can find online.

2. Submit your entry in .JPG format. The illustration should follow a standard movie poster size and portrait format. We’ve attached several examples for you to base the dimensions off.

3. You are allowed to submit as many entries as you wish but you can only win once.

THE PRIZES

Main Winner: $750
1st Runner-Up: $500
2nd Runner-Up: $250

Get the show on the road and send us the most creative Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie poster in all the galaxy!

      I This guy kujtamak from entrys #223 and #245 is creating fake accounts to give him likes, because all of that accounts were create this month, have 0 works done in the page and no even have the email verification. And one of those fake accounts is giving negative comments to the other top entrys, dDake to be more specific. I think that's dishonest from kujtamak.

      Blame the website and the contest holder. Their system can't detect those problem. The site is terrible in doing action with their policies.

    Hi, please check entry #241. Again it is an upgrade of my previous entries. I was able to spend much more time painting it and I am very happy with it. Please view the pencil drawings that I have included. Also note that I have withdrawn my previous entries so that you don't get confused. Thank you.
