In a goal to bring together the world of graphic artists and create a community around our passion MTV and Swatch has hooked up with growing popular social network Behance Network. There are a lot of competitions growing for graphic artists on the web (i.e big one threadless.com and design by humans). The goal is to gain awareness for specific artists around the world. Where are all the rockstar artists??? I think this is really the point to all these collective competitions.
Anyways, so MTV and Swatch has linked up an international graphic competition to achieve multiple things. One, to gain interest again from a group (the artists) that has abandoned them due to there shitty reality shows and lack of creativity and push Swatches pretty crappy artist collection (click here). Two, for Behance.net to gain more exposure and drive members to there website. Three, and the only positive thing… to create a competition showcasing an unheard of batch of amazing talent! The NEXT GENERATION OF IMAGINARY TALENT! They are calling it SWATCH MTV PLAYGROUND.
You can check out the Playground as it comes to life at venues around the world. Most events taking place across Europe and Asia.
Each event offers you a chance to get personally involved with features like art battles, artwork-to-go, graffiti wall and plenty more. And if you’ve uploaded a project to Swatch MTV Playground, your work could be showcased in all it’s glory.
I like the effort and think it is a step for MTV in a positive direction. Go a head and check it out!
