Creativity RULES in Graphics
We like to enter contests and win! The Daily
Chronicle newspaper in DeKalb offers a “Design an Ad”
contest every spring that is open to students from all over the
county. We entered in the High School division and were excited to
hear that two of our IVVC Graphics students were winners.
Congratulations to Keely H., a senior from Leland and Edwin M., a
senior from Sandwich for earning cash prizes for their winning
designs. Samantha E., Somonauk, was listed as honorable mention,
and Blake R., Sandwich, had his design printed in the “Design an
Ad” supplement to The Daily Chronicle, too. You may view
selected entries from the “Design an Ad 2008” contest online
at daily-chronicle.com (coming soon!) Look for the IVVC
Graphics students' creative designs.
Here is what Keely and Edwin
had to say about winning ...

Edwin - I picked the Smalltown Skateboard Shop
because I used to want to be a skateboarder myself. I wanted to
show something fun like a skateboarder doing a trick. I used red,
black and white for a punk look because skateboarders would relate
to that. I am thankful for winning second place in the high school
division, because I put so much time and effort into the design.
