Calling all film fans! NBCQ and Don't Panic are offering design ninjas the opportunity to win an all expenses paid trip to the 56th BFI London Film Festival and a one year membership to your local independent cinema!

To celebrate the release of Strawberry Fields on July 6th you are are invited to design the flyer for the film. The winning artwork will feature on the official promotional material and will be distributed nationally.

The Brief:

Submit a flyer design! The theme is Fashion in Film so make it stylish! It can be a sketch, a mood board, photograph, illustration, digital graphics or pretty much anything that fits the bill. Just include space for the film's title and credits. Easy!

About NBCQ

NBCQ (New British Cinema Quarterly) is all about highlighting the craft behind British filmmaking. The programme selects one new film to tour independent cinemas across the UK for 3 months. Each tour also features a Q&A with the creatives behind the production.

Because of the film's gorgeous costumes, the theme is Fashion in Film. You can see the mood boards created by the film's costume designer - the very talented Emma Moore - over on Facebook.

About Strawberry Fields

Centering on two sisters, Gillian and Emily, Strawberry Fields is the twisted tale of sibling rivalry, sexual awakening and mind games, set over a hot English summer.

Gillian has always planned adventures in her mind and has now fled the family home to find some freedom. She uses clothes to disguise herself, provide an armour and allow her to escape. Indulged and spoilt, her sister Emily wears a sensual, retro style that hides her manipulativeness and own fragility.

Any other questions? No? Good. Get designing!
