Contest Brief

Use:
Greeting card concept for sending someone (i.e. family/friend/relative) a special message (i.e. a warning or final warning for his/her misbehavior, foul).

Looking inside (!) the folded card (confronted with your cartoon or illustration), the recipient of the card immediately recognizes himself or herself. He or she (!) is a Workaholic. Someone who is addicted to work. While the term generally implies that the person enjoys their work; it can also imply that they simply feel compelled to do it.Try to show different situations in which the card sender gets annoyed by the behaviour of a Workaholic. Or try to warn the workaholic about his behaviour, because it is bad for his health or show him/her the things that really matter in life.

Style:
- Strong symbolism is the key;
- Cartoonesk, serious but fun;
- Wordless/pantomime cartoon.

Bonus points
Sexe/gender neutral (if chosen otherwise, bonus for female + male version in one entry)

Tip:
Including the effect of the behavior/foul.

Multiple winners:
We expect this to adjust multiple winning designs (max 7). Quality and variety will tell.

Have fun!

Due to concept, please present illustration portrait orientated (as opposed to landscape orientated).

High quality vector art,: Adobe illustrator (.ai), RGB or Photoshop (.psd)

# ab-so-lutely love the style and quality you put on the board. we really We so much lik eto reward this but please read the briefings carefully. We really prefer a worldess cartoon. The card receivers sees your illustrtaion like he is looking in the mirror. It makes him aware of the effects of his behaviour (workaholic). Thanks!

@hristina1605. Thank! We are happy with your many fine entries but you could win more prizes with exaggeration, strong symbolism, clear cause. We also love gender neutral charakters. Good luck!

Like the idea and putting yourself and others at risk (cause/effect) of workaholism. Another effect is on objects social life (working too much, not seeing friends and family etc.). Jus an idea
