PRIME CUTS - the exhibition for graduates of moving image has teamed up with ARTS THREAD to create a new competition to help launch the careers of seven designers at the Truman Brewery this July 19-23 2012.
See all the action from Prime Cuts 2011
We are hosting a new competition, starting January 16 2012. The Title is ‘The Games’, inspired by the Olympics that starts only a few days after the Prime Cuts show on July 27, with its hub at the Olympic Park at Stratford, also in East London.
We are contacting over 50 universities/colleges to invite them all to take part in the Prime Cuts/Arts Thread competition.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for some wicked, fresh and diverse ideas, based on our title.
