B/W CATEGORY--JUDGES COMMENTS:
JUDGE: IMAGE: PLACE: COMMENT:
SLOTA, L.
BIGOT EYE 1
GOOD CONCEPT--WORKS WELL WITH ALL PEOPLE--NOT JUST BLACK OR WHITE,
MEN OR WOMEN.
SLOTA, L.
EYE CHART
ALL MEN & WOMEN ARE CREATED EQUAL 2 EYE CHART WORKS WELL--CLEAR
STATEMENT--SIMPLE AND IT WORKS.
SLOTA, L.
EMBRACE DIVERSITY 3
WELL MADE--IN THOUGHT AND OUT PUT. WILL INTEREST PEOPLE READING IT.
SLOTA, L.
LOVE IS BLIND 4
GOOD GRAPHIC--WILL SHOW UP WELL IN B/W INK--SIMPLE EYE CATCHING.
N, NOAH
HARMONY 1
ONE OF THE ONLY TWO IMAGES WHICH DOSEN'T SEEM TO CONFINE ITSELF TO
"BLACK AND WHITE." IT THEREFORE EMBRACES A GREATER DIVERSITY, AND IN
CONCEPT, SHOWS ONCERN FOR ALL CULTURES AND PEOPLE. I ALSO LIKE THE
DESIGN PER SE.
N, NOAH
EYECHART 2
THE ONLY OTHER IMAGE WHICH EXTENDS ITSELF OUTSIDE OF THE "BLACK AND
WHITE" ISSUE. IT ALSO HAS AN ELEMENT OF HUMOR, AND SHOWS MOCHERZ
TO THOSE WHO CAN'T GRASP THE SIMPLICITY OF DIVERSITY AND EQUALITY.
CORTEZ. C
SEE CLEARLY 1
IMAGE IS SHARP AND LARGE ENOUGH TO SEE AT A DISTANCE. THOUGH UNCOLORED
THE SIMPLICITY OF IMAGE MAKES UP (FOR THIS). SELECTION MADE ON THE
BASIS OF IMPACT AND CLARITY.
STEWART, L
BIGOT EYE 1
IT'S A SIMPLE STATEMENT WITH A NICE QUOTE. THE MAJOR ISSUE IS STHE
TYPEFACE ITSELF, WHICH IS TO SMALL TO BE READ EASILY.
STEWART, L
UNITY 2
ANOTHER SIMPLE STATEMENT WITH A FITTING QUOTE. AGAIN, MY ONLY ISSUE
IS THE TYPEFACE CHOSEN.
STEWART, L
UNTITLED 3
SIMPLE IN STATEMENT. PERIOD.
STEWART, L
EMBRACE DIVERSIDY II 4
VISUALLY STRONG ENOUGH TO PULL SOMEONE IN LONG ENOUGH TO READ THE
TEXT AND ACTUALLY THINK ABOUT WHAT IT SAYS AND WHAT IT MEANS.
WAPAHI, R
BREAK THE CYCLE 3
EYE CATCHING DESIGN ALTHOUGH THE IMAGE IS WHAT I'M UNSURE OF.
IS IT MIRROR OR MALE SYMBOL DESIGN?
WAPAHI, R
POISON 4
USE OF BOTTLE IMAGE IS COMMON. WORDING GOOD. BUT LENGTHLY
WAPAHI, R
LOVE IS BLIND 1
SIMPLICITY OF DESIGN W/ ACCOMPANYING IMAGE. IN THIS SPEED ORIENTED
SOCIETY: LESS IS ACTUALLY MORE.
WAPAHI, R
EYE CHART 2
INNOVATIVE USE OF EYE-CHART PREMISE. THIS DESIGN IS "THE BEST OF"
WHILE WORDING ISN'T
BECK,G
DIRECT ACTION 2
VISUALIZED REPRESENTATION (OK WORDING) OF RACISM/BIGOTRY/INTOLERANCE,
NOT JUST RACISM. AND ALSO INCLUDES IDEA OF NON-VIOLENCE.
BECK,G
EMBRACE DIVERSITY 1
GIVES A CLEAR SIMPLE VISUAL IDEA W/O RESPRTING TO PLATITUDES. AND
SORT OF UNIVERSALIST.
BECK,G
LOVE IS BLIND 3/TIED CLEANEST EASIEST TO INTERPRIT DESIGN AND JUST
STRIKES ME VISUALLY.
BECK,G
UNIFIED INDIVIDUAL 3/TIED
CAN'T SAY WHY. JUST A REALLY UNIQUE PIECE. THE INCLUSION OF MEN AND
WOMEN.
DREW. C.
JOIN THE FIGHT AGAINST RACISM 1
EXCELLENT BLACK AND WHITE SKETCH WITH A NUMBER OF HISTORICAL ELEMENTS
THAT PUT THE POINT OF HER T-SHIRT INTO PERSPECTIVE. THE CONTEST FIT
OUR THEME TO A T.
DREW. C.
POISIN 2
QUICK IMPACT IMAGE WITH WHICH TELLS ITS TALE EASILY AND IS HARD TO
DISPUTE. IT TALKS ABOUT THE CORROSIVE EFFORT OF RACISM
DREW. C.
BREAK THE CYCLE 3
PRETTY IMAGE/DESIGN THAT IS SYMBOLIC AND ITS CONTENT IS CLEAR.
DREW. C.
RISE ABOVE THE HATE 4
VERY TIMELY. HATE IS A GREAT TEMPTATION IN THIS TIME OF FEAR AND WAR.
I LIKE THE WAY UNCLE SAM, WITH HIS STERN FACE STANDS IN THE
BACKGROUND THREATENING US.
RIESS, ALISON
BLACK & WHITE 1
THE " YING YANG" DESIGN OF THE PROFILES OF A CAUCASIAN/NEGRO
IS ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TO CONNET TO ALL PERSONS - ALL RACES &
AND ETHNICS. NO TYPE NECESSARY. EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE BALANCED IN LIFE
AND THIS IS A GOOD WAY TO START (YING YANG). THERE IS A "BLACK &
WHITE" SITUATION EVERYWHERE, AND EVERYDAY. GREY ZONE IS TOUGH TO
ACHIEVE, UNLESS WE WORK WITH THE BLACK/WITE EXTREMES FIRST.
RIESS, ALISON
EYE CHART 1
i LIKE THE IDEA AGAIN THAT THE VISUALIZATION WORKS WITH ALL RACES AND
ETHNICS. eVERYONE ALL AROUND HAS TAKEN AN EYE CHART EVALUATION. BUT
OUT OF HOW MANY OF THESE PATIENTS CAN ACTUALLY "SEE IT ALL"?
FEW/RARE FORM. NO MATTER HOW HARD THEY TRY TO SEE.
RIESS, ALISON
N*GGER LOVER 3
I'M UNSURE ABOUT THIS IMAGE. VERY 2-SIDED & VERY RISKY. SERIOUS
IMPACT. MAKING A FUN GAME A SUICIDE GAME JUST BASED ON BACKGROUND.
IS IT REALITY OF LIFE? PEOPLE MIGHT SEE THIS AS A THREAT OR JUST PLAIN
TRUTH. (UNSURE MESSAGE) IT CAN ALSO BRING OUT CONCERNS, SERIOUS
CONSEQUENSES, OR A DART IN YOUR HEART--SHOULD A BLACK PERSON WEARING
THIS SHIRT A GOOD THING OR SHOULD A WHITE PERSON WEAR IT IN A GETTO?
RIESS, ALISON
PENGUIN 4
IT IS CHOSEN BECAUSE IT MAKES IT LESS STRESSFUL TO GET THE MESSAGE
OUT TO KIDS AND ADULTS ALIKE SINCE ITS INVOLVED WITH AN ANIMAL--ANIMALS
TEND TO SOFTEN PEOPLE UP AND PUT A SMILE ON THEIR FACE; NO MATTER
HOW HEAVY THE WORD SELETION IS. PENGUINS HAVE NEVER BEEN A THREAT
TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING. THEY'RE CUTE & CUDDLEY AND LIVE IN THE
TOUGHEST AND COLDEST HABITAT, AND THEY STILL PLAY, SLIDE DOWN
OBSTICLES AND MAKE THEIR OWN HAPPINESS IN THEIR SEPARATED WORLD
FROM THE MAINSTREAM.
