L. Ron Hubbard's International Illustrators of the Future Contest Survey Reveals Notable Facts about Illustrator Entrants
(PRWEB) July 29, 2013 -- Illustrations from around the globe arrive at this contest on a routine basis, but in the 1st Quarter of 2013 there were an unusually high amount of very young entrants. The quarter drew entries from 16 year olds to 57 year olds but the age with the most entries was 17, by a wide margin.
"We are seeing younger contestants and, better quality illustrations from around the globe on a routine basis now," contest Director Joni Labaqui stated in a recent interview.
One of the most known and respected vehicles for supporting new and fledgling illustrators is this world-acclaimed, free-to-enter global contest called L. Ron Hubbard's Illustrators of the Future, now in its 25th year. Created by international best-selling author L. Ron Hubbard, the merit-based Writers and Illustrators of the Future Contests were initiated to discover and encourage talented beginning writers and illustrators of science fiction and fantasy. Quarterly winners of the Contest appear in the best-selling annual anthology, receive cash prizes, and attend an all-expenses paid gala awards ceremony and workshop.
The Illustrators of the Future Contest is that break new illustrators can use to launch the career they’ve dreamed of. In fact, the contest has launched the careers of hundreds of professional illustrators, including Academy Award winner for best animated short in 2011 - Shaun Tan (The Lost Thing).
