🎨✨ Uspješno završen likovni natječaj projekta Z-Future II "Dizajn lika: Inkluzivni junak videoigre” 🚀🎮 U subotu, 30. svibnja, na manifestaciji Expo Gamers svečano su proglašeni i nagrađeni pobjednici srednjoškolskog likovnog natječaja. Ovaj hvalevrijedan projekt postavio je pred mlade autore izazov spajanja kreativnosti, digitalne umjetnosti i kreativnog razmišljanja o prikazu inkluzije i drugačijega. Stručni žiri imao je zahtjevan zadatak među mnoštvom izvrsnih ideja odabrati: 🏅 3 najbolja rada 🏅 7 istaknutih radova Tijekom same dodjele, okupljena publika i posjetitelji imali su priliku uživati u digitalnoj izložbi svih pristiglih radova na velikom platnu, čime je prezentiran izniman potencijal i vizualni talent naših srednjoškolaca. Zahvaljujući pokroviteljima i sponzorima, za mlade su umjetnike osigurane iznimno bogate i vrijedne nagrade koje će im pomoći u daljnjem radu i razvoju vještina: Vrhunski Kamvas Pro grafički tableti za digitalno crtanje Informatička oprema i periferija Profesionalni crtaći blokovi Fabriano za tradicionalne skice Tematske geeky majice, kape i modni dodaci od Croppa Od srca zahvaljujemo pokroviteljima projekta – Ministarstvu znanosti, obrazovanja i mladih (MZOM), Zakladi Kultura nova, Ministarstvo kulture i medija te Primosko-goranskoj županij, kao i našim partnerima i sponzorima koji su prepoznali važnost poticanja mladih talenata: White Shark, Cropp i Računala.hr. Čestitamo svim nagrađenim učenicima na izvrsnim radovima i hvala svim školama koji su podržali ovaj projekt! 👏👏👏
