What does "series" mean?
In some categories it is possible to submit your work in series. What does that mean?
For the purposes of participation in Golden Hammer competition - series are linked advertisements on one media channel with a single idea of theme and creative concept. They may focus on one or few brands or products, and may last from few weeks to years.
For example three versions of print advertisment must be submitted as series, and uploaded as seperate files, so that each print ad gets its own uniqe Golden Hammer competition identification number.
One single advertisment or campaign over several media channels is not considered series in Golden Hammer competition. And must be entered in each category seperatly.
When submitting series the entree fee is lower for each serie.
In case you have inquiries - Golden Hammer team will gladly help.
What does "image file" mean?
