BubbleUK: VIBER LAUNCHES STICKY FINGERS: MY CITY, MY VIBE

 

 

 

Viber, one of the leading messaging apps with more than 600 million unique users worldwide, today announces the launch of its second Sticky Fingers initiative, “My City, My Vibe”, a search to uncover new animation talent from all over the globe, in partnership with Talenthouse.

Sticky Fingers: “My City, My Vibe” is a global design initiative inviting animators and cartoon character creators to create original stickers inspired by their favourite international city. Creators are encouraged to submit three original designs that bring to life the vibe and personality of their favorite city.

A judging panel including Viber Creative Director Erez Shocher, Stanislav Makarenko, aka ‘Drawk’ (the Selected Artist of the first Sticky Fingers), online personality Julieanna “YesJulz” Goddard and graffiti artist Alec Monopoly, will select 20 finalists which will then be narrowed down to five Selected Artists. The  Selected Artists will receive the opportunity to work with the creative team at the Viber design studio to see their image come to life in a Viber sticker pack, which will be sold throughout the world and used by millions of people worldwide, putting their designs on a global stage. The Selected Artists will also receive a revenue share for every sticker sold.

The Creative Invite brief is open to anyone 18 years old and over and will run from

October 15 to November 18, 2015. The twenty finalists will be announced on 9 December,

2015 and the five Selected Artists on 15 December, 2015.
