《傳達藝術》雜志2001年年度圖形設計競賽
2001 COMMUNICATION ARTS ANNUAL Graphic Design COMPETITION
Deadline: June 15, 2001
Juried by nine top design professionals and attracting entries from
20 countries, each year’s Design Annual features 250 pages of the best work
in posters, brochures, packaging, trademarks, corporate identity, annual reports,
catalogs, letterheads and signage, and is fully indexed for reference.
Published each November, 76,000 copies of the Design Annual will
be sold and distributed worldwide, assuring important exposure to the creators
of this outstanding work.
The Design Annual incorporates special reproduction techniques developed
by CA, including quality 175-line color separation and printing on premium 80
lb. coated paper by one of the finest printers in the United States. Everything
that was originally in color is reproduced in color at a size that allows the
concept to be understood.
Of the 17,002 entries to the 2000 Design Annual, 269 were accepted,
making the Design Annual the most exclusive major graphic design competition
in the world.

any country, but we need an English translation for the jurors. Submission of
entries acknowledges the right of Communication Arts to use them for publication
and exhibition.

entries should be sent by post or international courier. All entries must be
received by June 15, 2001.
Accepted Entries
Only accepted entries will be notified on or before September 15, 2001. Complete
credits and any necessary material for the best possible reproduction in the
Annuals will be requested at that time. Award of Excellence certificates for
firms, individuals and clients will be mailed in January 2002.
How the Judging Takes Place
The nine jurors work in screening teams of three. Each category is distributed
into three parts so each group screens one-third of the entries.
Print entries are spread out on tables by category. Most categories
require several room setups. Each juror views the entries independently. Any
juror can put an entry into the final voting by picking it up from the table.
Entries on slides are selected by checking an “in” or “out” column on prepared
scoring sheets.
For finals, all nine jurors work as a single team. In one hall,
print entries are again spread out on tables by category. Two paper cups, one
white and one red, with slots cut in the bottom, are placed upside down to the
right of each entry. White cups are for “in” votes, red cups for “out.” Each
juror votes with different colored ceramic tiles by putting his or her tile
in the appropriate cup.
After all the jurors finish voting on print, they move to another
hall for slides. Again, voting is done by each juror checking the “in” or “out”
column on scoring sheets.
Meanwhile, in the print hall, if the votes do not total nine, a
check of the tile colors tells the Communication Arts staff which juror has
inadvertently missed that piece and he or she is called back to vote.
After the judges make their selections, their votes are tallied.
A simple majority is usually required to place a finalist into the Annual.
