In addition to offering free of charge its software for three months and to halve its prices, the software publisher Affinity had announced a financial support operation for creatives. It unveiled today the details of "100 days. 100 orders".
Over 100 days, Serif will buy the works of 100 creative people created with one of its three software programs. The total amount will represent the annual envelope usually spent for the purchase of creations by the publisher. The authors of the 100 creations will each receive US$1,500, or approximately 1?380 euros.
But it's not your typical creative competition. "We don't ask people to create illustrations within a given time frame, said Ashley Hewson, Director of Serif. We are looking for real projects created with Affinity software because we know that many people have worked on projects that have just been cancelled. But they can also be unused projects or just for fun."
This can be documents created with the Affinity Publisher layout software (such as leaflets, brochures, magazines, reports, books...), creations created with the vector graphics software Affinity Designer (such as illustrations, user interface and graphic designs, website or application layouts, logos, packaging...) or creations produced with the photo retouching software Affinity Photo (such as portrait retouching, compositions, focus assemblies, astrophotography, panoramas, fashion and product photos...).
The deadline for applications is April 20, 2020, at 12:00 noon TSB, 13:00 French time. Only one submission per person is possible and any mark must be made fictitious before the submission of the work.
