Appel de propositions
En 2012, les Prix Rideau Awards célébreront leur cinquième anniversaire. Pour souligner cette importante occasion, nous lançons un appel de propositions de concepts pour une nouvelle statuette Rideau.
Les Prix Rideau Awards ont été créés en 2006 pour célébrer, encourager et promouvoir le théâtre professionnel local de langues française et anglaise, ainsi que les artistes qui y oeuvrent, au moyen d'une cérémonie annuelle de remise de prix. Ils favorisent l'excellence artistique et la communication entre les deux communautés théâtrales. Actuellement, les prix que nous remettons prennent la forme de certificats encadrés, mais comme notre organisation mûrit, nous aimerions célébrer nos artistes en leur remettant un prix, soit une statuette ou un trophée, qui est lui-même une oeuvre d'art.
Nous vous prions de tenir compte des critères suivants dans votre proposition de concept :
- la taille;
- le coût;
- le concept doit rappeler le théâtre et notre mandat, mais évitez le kitsch et les clichés. Nous sommes à la recherche d'un concept classique qui puisse être réutilisé année après année;
- la durabilité des matériaux - les statuettes doivent durer;
- il faut un espace réservé à l'apposition d'une petite plaque contenant les détails du prix;
- la facilité avec laquelle le concept peut être reproduit.
Nous comptons présenter un prototype du concept sélectionné à l'occasion du gala qui se déroulera en avril 2012. Les nouveaux prix seront ensuite remis aux lauréats à la cérémonie de remise des prix d'avril 2013. En plus d'être reconnue comme le créateur du prix, la personne sélectionnée sera rémunérée pour son concept. Les droits d'auteur appartiendront aux Prix Rideau Awards.
Les propositions doivent être envoyées au plus tard le vendredi 27 janvier 2012 et inclure des dessins, des couleurs, une liste des matériaux, les spécifications de conception ou un modèle.
Envoyez le tout à l'adresse suivante :
Les Prix Rideau Awards

Succursale B
Ottawa (Ontario) K1P 5R1
C'est avec beaucoup d'enthousiasme que nous lançons ce projet et nous avons bien hâte de recevoir vos propositions. Pour toute question ou des renseignements supplémentaires, n'hésitez pas à communiquer avec nous à l'adresse suivante :
