Contest Brief

I have a wall mural that I need designed for an elementary school. (grades kindergarten to 5th grade.)
 
The mural will be 12 feet high and a minimum of 16 feet wide. Please focus on illustration, with minimal text.

The school’s mascots are a male and female wildcat. Photos of the mascots are attached.
 
The photo of each mascot will need to be vectorized and then incorporated into the design.
 
A 75” wide x 65” high portion of the mural will have picture frames covering it so space will have to be made for it. I have included a image of what the boxes will look like over the design. You do not have to add the boxes to the design, space just needs to be made for them. It will need to have a background design that is not. Above this allotted portion the mural needs to have the title “Programme of Inquiry” above it. And design the mural around this space.

The mural must incorporate the following themes
1. Friendship or Community Helpers
2. Recycling
3. History of North Carolina USA, State Flag, Outline of State
4. Space Exploration
5. Newton's Laws
6. Paw Prints from Mascot

We want this mural to be bright and kid friendly. Use textures in illustrator when needed. No white space, transition everything well.

Kids will be passing this artwork every day, we want there to be a WOW factor. But also informative.

Have included examples of other murals and the NC state flag.

We really want it to show that we are in the 21st century and stretch the kids imaginations.

    Centered. And it doesn't have to be an actual box, but just allow space with nothing in that area.

    This is going on an inside wall, near the entrance. The kids will see this first thing as soon as they enter school We want it to be relevant to the 5 requirements.
