The process
Five steps to submit

- 2
Choose your category and subcategory
Pick the category that best fits your project, then the subcategory that describes it most precisely. You can submit up to 5 entries per category.
- 3
Fill in the entry details
Tell us about the job: the press it ran on, materials, finishing techniques, print run and completion date. You can save a draft and come back at any time.
- 4
Upload your work
Upload 3 to 8 photos of the finished piece (JPG or PNG, up to 10MB each) in one zipped folder, plus one video upload showing the piece in use or in detail.
