Late last year we opened our third poster competition asking for creative people to submit their designs for the 2015 Norwich Film Festival. We were pleased to get more entries than ever before, and we were really happy with the quality of work submitted, which culminated in the shortlisted Top Ten.

We then opened up the voting to the public for three weeks, and we had hundreds of votes in the end. We’d like to thank every single person who voted, as you have made our job a lot easier in picking the top three. But now, the votes are in and they have been counted. We are very happy to announce the top three posters.

Olivia Church, Georgia Howell, and Katie Kamminga

A huge congratulations goes out to Olivia, Georgia and Katie, and to all the other designers. We enjoyed Olivia’s use of bright colours, Georgia’s simple and minimalist approach to Norwich and film; and Katie’s attempt to throw back to and old school poster style. These three designs will now be printed as flyers / postcards etc and distributed throughout the city in the lead up to the festival this year.

Of those three, a committee of judges from the festival have chosen their favourite, which will be drawn up as full size posters for use throughout Norwich. After consideration and debate, the final winner has been confirmed as GEORGIA HOWELL.

Her design was elegant and simple, yet maintained a relevant theme true to the festival. It’s visual reference to Norwich market is eye catching and immediately obvious, while still offering a subtle hint to the film festival. We look forward to seeing this poster up throughout the city of Norwich!

Congratulations once again to Georgia. We will be holding another poster design competition for our 2016 festival soon, so please keep an eye open for that in June.

Let us know your thoughts about this year’s posters below!

This year has been our biggest year for poster design submissions! We’ve really had some excellent posters sent to us, from some very talented artists, and we’d like to thank each and every one of them for their hard work and commitment. THANK YOU.

Unfortunately, we can’t display them all, and not all the submissions could make it through to the next round of voting. But, after much deliberation, we have narrowed the selection down to our top ten designs which you can see below. Please view them all then vote for your favourite at the bottom. When voting closes at the end of month, the top three will be made into postcards which will be distributed in the lead up to this year’s festival. The winning design, as voted for by the public and by the Norwich Film Festival committee, will also be turned into a full scale poster and displayed throughout Norwich in the run up to the festival.

All these ten designs will appear in our 2015 Festival Programme, which will be available soon.

Vote for your favourite!
