Are you a designer, comic, filmmaker, or activist with a creative idea that could become the Internet’s next big viral success story? If so, we invite you to enter the Contagious Festival, an ongoing web competition and talent search. You simply create an account, upload your project to the official Contagious Festival server and watch the live rankings to see if your entry is contagious.
Each month, the entry with the most traffic wins the “People’s Choice Award” and a panel of esteemed judges awards a “Jury Prize” based on originality, creativity and best social commentary.
Be forewarned: this is called viral marketing because it is contagious, symptomatic and may cost you the better part of at least one work day as you pursue all of the many creative entries in this ongoing festival… You may never shake the infection – it’s monthly!
But then… it’s Sunday, so enjoy!
