In conjunction with media partner CBS Outdoor UK, creative team Smile For London has launched a new competition with the aim of raising the spirits of London's Underground train commuters. They invite all emerging artistic talent to submit a twenty second silent film or animation as part of a campaign to exhibit a series of motion works on the large platform screens across the Underground network.
On weekday mornings for two weeks in January, at a time when most Londoners and the rest of the UK feel the January blues and are in need of a lift, platforms screens in the Underground will be showcasing artwork designed especially for the space to provide thought provoking visual stimulation for travellers.
The final day for submissions is 3rd December 2010 and the selection process will involve an online vote with a view to fifty successful submissions going forward to a panel of celebrated industry leaders to make the final selection.
For full submission details and to see features by industry leaders and current profiles of artists visit the Smile For London website.
