Aside from the evil spec nature of this “contest”, the Project format is an interesting concept. Check out the demo video and project assets for inspiration in how mobile media is changing editorial.
As part of its launch on Tuesday, Virgin’s first iPad-only magazine, Project, announced a contest to redesign the magazine’s animated cover. In order to get ahold of the brief and assets for the contest, however, designers (or their unemployed friends) had to locate one of four paper mannequins (with Sir Richard Branson, pictured above) touring New York and San Francisco, each of which held the coordinates of USB sticks containing the brief, earlier this week.
I’ve since gotten ahold of a .zip file containing the outline and assets for the cover contest, which you can download from my personal Dropbox account here. You can watch a video outlining the challenge below, and enter your design at facebook.com/project.
