Cut&Paste Digital Design Tournament 2009
Cut&Paste kicks off of its 16-city global design tour in the City of Angels today. LA’s 2D, 3D, and Motion designers will face serious pressure to design with speed, skill, and style as partygoers watch their every move on giant projection screens, cheer them on if they like what they see, and (of course), critique. Do these 16 competitors have what it takes to make it to the final showdown at NYC’s Global Championship on June 20th? Head to the Avalon to see for yourself. Doors open at 5PM; Tournament starts at 6PM.
