Creative Common / Temple APA Issue Eleven guidelines and deadlines

« on: 08 April, 2012, 04:01:57 PM »

Apologies for my lateness in mentioning this. Had a lot going on and this year seems to be zipping by at a bit of a mental rate.

Deadline for the next issue is April 29th, (though you'll probably get away with being a bit late 'cos I probably will be).

Quick guidelines...

1 : It's for creators active in the British comics scene, (both amateur and professional), but you don't have to be in the UK to contribute.

2 : Writers are required to find their own artist to team up with and vice versa

3 : Already completed strips or pieces of artwork are welcome, (even if they've appeared elsewhere).

4 : Submissions can have a maximum of 20 pages.

5 : Image files should be a minimum of 1240 pixels wide at 150 dpi and can be in colour or black and white.

6 : An intro page is required telling people a bit about yourselves. You and any co-contributor can put this together or you can include a short paragraph along with your submission and we'll put something together for you.

Creative Common / Anyone want to draw a faux Sci-Fi B-movie poster for a Temple cover?

« on: 01 January, 2012, 06:34:46 PM »

As it'll be the tenth issue of that Temple APA thingummy, and the Roman numeral for ten is "X", it of course means there should be a '50s style sci-fi B movie-style cover for the next issue. Yes, it does.

You know the kind of thing... freaky alien robot mutants carrying off fainted ladies in swimming costumes and stuff like that.

You can do the logo and text for it yerself, (or get a responsible adult to do it for you), but it should contain the following words, (except for the bits in brackets)...

"TEMPLE APA" (that's the title)

"ISSUE X" (in the style of an old movie poster "CERTIFICATE X")

"WARNING! MATURE CONTENT!"

"A Digital Comics Showcase."

...and you can include some other cliched tagline thingy like "FROM THE DEPTHS OF SPACE IT CAME..." or somesuch, if you want.

Deadline's Jan 29th, (but we could probably stretch to a few days later).

Introducing the new bloggy home for the Temple APA digital comics showcase. Deadline for contributions to the next issue is the end of this month, (eek!), and a slight change of wording means that you don't need to be in the UK to contribute - you just need to be active within the British comics scene, (or intend to be).
