WHAT IS THE CREATIVE RESEARCH COMPETITION?

The 2020 Creative Research Competition is an opportunity to have your 
creative scholarship vetted in a blind-juried, peer-reviewed forum. 
Note: You must be a current member of AEJMC. There is a limit of two 
entries per person.


WHAT WORK SHOULD YOU ENTER?

The format is non-restrictive, but an entry must include a strong visual 
component that would typically appear as “Creative Scholarship” or 
“Creative Work” on your curriculum vitae. Projects that have been 
accepted into the Creative Research competition in the past include: 
historical studies, visual communication, photojournalism, books and 
documentaries, data visualizations. Work created between April 1, 2019 
and April 1, 2020 is eligible to enter.


HOW WILL THE WORK BE JUDGED?

The work will be judged by a panel of judges using the following criteria:

  * • Relevance to the focus of the AEJMC Visual Communication Division
  * • Contributions to professional practice or pedagogical approach
  * • Overall strength of the work
  * • Clarity and effectiveness
  * • Creativity of the work
HOW DO I ENTER?

3) Include a digital image that represents the overall project (jpg or
