Holy Moly! After looking at 195 poster submissions, the Grand Cinema is proud to announce the winning poster design for the 2010 Tacoma Film Festival by graphic designer Jason Larche!
It was no easy task selecting this year's winning poster. Entries were received from all over the world (Istanbul, Germany, Colombia), and the talent was incredible. Thank you to the panel of judges along with our loyal Grand Cinema patrons for giving us your feedback that ultimately led to the winning choice.
"The poster is clean, simple and does a good job of mixing film and Tacoma," says Philip Cowan, Grand Cinema's Executive Director. "With so many talented entries it was really difficult choosing just one winner."
Thank you to each and every artist who submitted a design. The Grand Cinema is very lucky to have such great supporters that are willing to share their talent.
About the Artist
Jason Larche is a 25-year-old graphic designer and illustrator based in Norwalk, Connecticut. He graduated from Syracuse University in 2008 with a degree in Communications Design, and chose to pursue a career in branding and packaging. He has always had a great appreciation of film, and hopes to further his involvement in the industry. Visit JasonLarche.com to see more.
About the Design
My goal with this design was to boldly announce the festival by establishing a reputable and contemporary look. I wanted to convey Tacoma's character in a classical manner through a high-contrast color palette. It was important for me to show my appreciation of traditional film in what has increasingly become a digital art form. « hide details |

Here's your chance to shine as an artist and have your work displayed all over Tacoma. The non-profit Grand Cinema is once again turning to the artistic community to design this year's Tacoma Film Festival poster. Last year's contest saw entries from ALL OVER THE WORLD! This year we hope to see the same participation. The Grand will accept entries for the poster through June 23, 2010.

The winning poster will receive:
-$350

- A joint membership to the non-profit Grand Cinema.
- We will also ask the winning artist to assist in creating some print ads and miscellaneous other uses of the artwork.
All entries will receive four (4) complimentary movie passes to the Grand Cinema.
As for the design, that is pretty much left up to you. It will need to say:

www.TacomaFilmFestival.com
space at the bottom for sponsor logos (a minimum of 10 logos)
DEADLINE: Wednesday, June 23, 2010
