Freestanding acrylic trophy for the World Illustration Awards

The Association of Illustrators has been organising competitions that celebrate and cultivate recognition for illustrated works for over forty years. This year, in partnership with the Directory of Illustration, they hosted the World Illustration Awards 2019, open to illustrators across the globe.

Illustrators submitted work across eight categories ‘that reflect the breadth and diversity of illustration‘.

Acrylic trophy with personalised print manufactured for the World Illustration Awards

Patrick Dias, a Toronto-based designer and animator, took home a prize in the ‘Experimental’ category. Patrick created a series of handmade props and sets for use as concept images and promotional material for a short film. In the ‘Books’ category, Anna Mill won with a graphic novel that envisaged a near-future city.

Encapsulating and embracing the variety of style in an artistic industry for a worldwide award isn’t easy, but an acrylic tablet makes a great blank canvas.

 

Illustrating Excellence

We’ve covered some of the options with acrylic tablets on the blog previously. The World Illustration Awards are a fantastic example. Dual-layer print adds depth and interest to an award with a strong brand.

UV printers work a bit like the inkjet or laser printer you might see in your home or office. Unlike ordinary printers, the ink dries under UV light and prints on an array of materials.

Custom print on the World Illustration Awards trophy

Print is pantone-matched, so it’s crisp and colour accurate – a necessity not only for the World Illustration Awards, but brands, businesses and award sponsors in every industry.

Bright pops of colour, as well as dynamic branding, go hand-in-hand on these awards. Acrylic tablets are an undeniably versatile award, and designs are flexible and customisable for the ultimate bespoke award year-on-year.

Blank

When you order a blank trophy, it will arrive without any personalised details. The trophy is blank for you to add your own personalisation, or use as a decorative piece.

Personalise Online

Select your layout using the dropdown menu, then enter your details. The live proof shows you an approximate visual of how your trophy will look when it’s engraved. Once you’ve added the details you want and purchased your trophy, we’ll begin manufacture right away.

Please note: The live render is an estimate of how your trophy will look, and the final result may vary in size, colour and placement.

Gaudio Proofing Service

With the Gaudio Proofing Service, simply add your chosen trophy to your cart and checkout as normal. A member of the team will be in touch to collect the required details, and we’ll send you proofs to approve before manufacture. Delivery time excludes proofing.
