All you have to do is create an account with us and upload your poster to the ‘Star Wars The Force Awakens contest’ category when uploading. We’d like to advise that when exporting to ‘Save for Web’ and to keep files under 1MB if possible. You may enter a Star Wars poster previously designed before the announcement of this contest.

The deadline for this contest is December 5th 11:59PM GMT which will give us time to shortlist the entries and display the chosen 10. This contest is open Worldwide. You may enter more than once.

There are no restrictions on what you can design, we’re interested in seeing the huge scope of talent this contest will expose. However please try to avoid using existing material and just replicating the existing theatrical poster. We are looking for creativity and originality.

Traditional media is allowed as long as it can be digitalised to a high resolution for A1 print. Be sure to create your design in CMYK colour (for printing) and convert to RGB for uploading.

We’re looking for digital entries as 10 shortlisted entries will be printed and displayed in the Curzon Mayfair, London (Sponsored by Blueprint London ). The winning entry will be chosen by Anthony Daniels, who plays C-3PO (Possibly the coolest droid in the Galaxy).
