Selection process
Selecting the finalists for Zealous X will happen in two rounds.
Our first round will shortlist 45 entries in each discipline. The final 15 in each category will then be selected from those 45 by a panel of independent industry specific judges.
All finalists, from those 7 disciplines will then be invited to showcase their works at Rich Mix in January 2016!
The Judges
The work to be showcased will be selected by an independent panel of industry professionals spanning some of the UK’s largest and coolest creative institutions
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I submit?
This very much depends on your field (before you submit you’ll see a set of guidelines related to your field). But the gist of it is, each submission you make defines a work / body of works which will be showcased at Zealous X. Make sure you give our judges a good understanding of what your work is about (quality photos of your art, good video footage of your performance…) and if you include text please don’t submit more than 2 A4 pages.
What happens once I submit?
As soon as you submit, you should receive an email from us confirming your application has been received (check your junk mail, just in case!). We will then automatically keep you updated at each step in the process regardless of the outcome of your submission.
Be aware that Zealous X is not the only opportunity on Zealous, so be sure to update your profile and upload more projects to have the best possible presence for when opportunities come knocking!
Can I submit password protected videos
Yes you can, we’ll ask you for the password in the application form. This will only be shown to our judges.
Can I submit multiple projects
Yes you can, so long as the projects you are submitting are different. Anyone submitting the same project twice will be disqualified.
