Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: Herscher High School Entry Title: Lights! Camera! Action! Entry Credit: Alex Graefnitz Judge Comment: Art work draws the attention to the story nicely. The second art is best. The top art pulls the reader away from it. Work on clear wording- less is more.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Harrisburg High School Entry Title: All I want for Christmas - Pet Christmas Tree Entry Credit: Gabby Dooley Judge Comment: Lots of nice art- but too much- reader needs a focus. Advertises the story accurately.
Wrap the text on the paws closer.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Herscher High School Entry Title: Happy Holidays Entry Credit: Alex Graefnitz Judge Comment: Lots of good art- needs a dominate image- wording is distracting.
Place Name: Honorable Mention Contestant Name: Harrisburg High School Entry Title: Snakes of Southern Illinois Entry Credit: Gabby Dooley Judge Comment: A good idea and informative. Works well with the story. Maybe make one photo larger to lead eyes into the story. Photo credits needed.
Competition Comment: All work shows good art skills and nicely advertises the stories. Wording needs to be clear, so the readers don't struggle.
Art work should not dominate the page but lead readers into the stories.
