 Manga Competition We aren't acccepting any more submissions. Please try again in 3 months. LavaMind is putting on a contest for aspiring magna artists of exceptional talent. Submit your original work and win a development deal with LavaMind. The difference between this contest and other contests out there is that we're interested in raw, unadulterated talent. We don't expect you to have a finished manga or be a polished professional. We're looking for that spark of brilliance that we can help to develop. The other key difference is that we don't expect you to do it alone. Maybe you're brilliant at drawing characters but you cannot do scenery, or maybe your story telling skills aren't quite there yet. We're open to putting you together with other talented artists, story tellers, manga inkers, manga toners, and experienced producers so that together you can create something bigger and better than any of you could do on your own. This is what we call development. The winners of our contest will be offered a development deal with LavaMind, where they will work as an extension of our company to produce a complete manga series. LavaMind will then work to license and distribute this series in as many countries around the world as possible. We believe in the creative process, and we hope to nurture the next generation of great American manga artists.     |
