Winners of The Review

AIGA Colorado and Art Directors Club of Denver teamed up last Saturday, April 28th at local design agency, The Integer Group, to help Colorado and surrounding area college art students make it in the professional world by hosting the annual event, The Review. At The Review students get invaluable feedback on their portfolio as it is reviewed by up to five creative professionals and compete for scholarships and prizes.

Students presented their work to local agency designers, business owners and artists from many art disciplines such as digital design, web design, print design and photography, in one-on-one sessions, similar to an interview. The professionals gave feedback on the students work, how they can improve and advice on how to present their work to land their dream job.

A.J. Croce, ADCD Vice President and Elysia Syriac, AIGA President, reviewed the top portfolios and handed out a $500 scholarship and Adobe CS5.5 Creative Suite to the winner of each review session.
