Opportunity 2: design the identity for Graduate Week 2008

Graduate Week is a week-long programme of workshops, talks and events, designed to help Arts London students launch their career after graduating. Find out more about previous Graduate Weeks and this year's programme here.

This competition, run with the help of the Design Practice, is to find the promotional identity for Graduate Week 2008, which will be used across all activity and items to create awareness of the event. All you need to do is register your details on the ECCA website, submit your response to the brief and wait for people to vote.

The student with the most votes, or the one ECCA feels is the best contribution, will see their design used across the University of the Arts London to promote the event, and will be paid £300 for their contribution. The winner will also receive one-to-one support from ECCA and meet with the Design Practice to get their work into production.

The brief
