DigiFest South, a new digital arts festival and career fair, celebrates how digital technology combined with artistic creativity is shaping modern society. The inaugural event will be held September 7-9, 2012 at the Bossier Civic Center in Bossier City, Louisiana.
The Bossier Arts Council is currently accepting exhibit applications for original works of art in the following categories:
- 3D Design and Animation,
- CG Animation
- Digital Photography
- Digital Sculpture (Robotics)
- Digital Sound and Music
- Digital Video and Film
- Graphic Design and Motion Graphics
- Mechanical and Architectural Design.
One message that DigiFest South organizers want to convey is that art education is more than a school elective; it is a powerful vocational element.
“There’s a lot of tech-based infrastructure in Shreveport-Bossier,” said DigiFest South Organizer Clint McCommon. “We have a growing community of digital technology, and we want DigiFest South to highlight it for this area.”
Artist application forms are available online at www.bossierarts.org. The deadline for submitting applications is July 31, 2012.
