The gamesounddesign.com Article Writing Contest!
We have one mission to uphold with this website, and that is to educate our
fellow sound design community with the best ideas and creative thinking that
will inspire the next generation of video games.
But we cannot do it alone. It is important to experience the creativity, ideas, and methodologies of the community. The more we listen to each other, the better we all become.
This is your opportunity to write an article, a how-to, or contribute a video to the website that is here to inspire your creativity. Gamesounddesign.com is visited by over 5000 creative professionals every month and features some of the best insight on sound design available on the web.
If that isn't enough we are offering a $150 grand prize for the best article, how-to, or video that comes our way. In addition, we will be awarding two prizes of $50 each for the 2nd and 3rd place runners-up.
Each article, how-to or video submitted will be published on the site! We will also publish a bio and link to your website or blog (if you wish). Entries can also be published as "anonymous" if you so desire.
So, sharpen your pencil, get out the recorder, turn on the video camera... enter today!
