Every year I volunteer for the SXSW music, film and interactive conference so that I can participate without having to pay for it. I’m cheap like that. The 10 day festival has nearly 12,000 attendees with venues that span the entirety of downtown Austin, Texas. Aside from the conference staff, several thousand volunteers are needed for the whole operation to run smoothly. Those volunteers all wear identical shirts so that participants can easily identify them.

This year the SXSW staff decided to have a design contest for the volunteer shirt and I took a crack at it.

The contest rules stipulated that only three colors (not including the shirt) could be used and the design must somehow reflect the 25th anniversary of SXSW. After that anything goes.

My design, “VolunDEER In The Headlights” won!

 

I had a second submission, “SXSW 4 Life” which apparently resonated with the SXSW staff because they have decided to use that design for a SXSW employee shirt.

I was honored that my design was chosen and I can’t wait to see it forcefully adorned by tons of people on the streets of my hometown.
