My class in Canterbury, New Zealand has worked incredibly hard to produce an entry for a competition we are competing in at the moment. The criteria for the competition was to produce something creative using Colgate toothpaste cartons that relates to the 2012 theme of sports/athletics. We came up with an original design called the 'Triple Action Triathlon' and, apart from the black background, it's made completely from empty Colgate boxes. We created and developed concepts, and played around with different colour schemes and images before deciding on our final design. After settling on our final design we took photos of individual boxes in front of a green screen, removed the backgrounds, then pasted, rotated, and resized them digitally to make up our final design. This took a long time and lots of patience, but we are really happy with the final result!
We were lucky enough to have our design selected for the top 10 in the competition and now it just comes down to facebook votes. It only takes a minute to vote by following the link below, logging into facebook, and voting for the design by Kaiapoi Borough School. If you like the look of our entry, we would really appreciate you taking the time to place a vote and pass the link on to as many people as possible. If we win, our school will receive $5,000 worth of brand new P.E gear, which we desperately need to help our school rebuild from the earthquakes in our area over the last one and a half years.
As part of this competition we have been looking at the power of communication, so with your help we can produce a real life example of the amazing power of the internet and how it can be used as a very effective communication device! We really hope that if we get enough votes, we might be able to get Colgate to sponsor a nationwide triathlon event called the 'Triple Action Triathlon', which will encourage young children to become more active and live a healthy lifestyle.
