Hello peeps!

I got some new and exciting illustration opportunities for y'all for the upcoming month of February (ie the monthly movie poster and an annual Gateway tradition)!

As always, feel free to share with your illustrator friends and/or refer them to me so I can put them in the newsletter. If you have any ideas on what else to contribute to the section, besides the occasional article illustrations and movie poster pitches from me, let me know via email.

- Arthur :)

Feb Gateway to Cinema Movie Poster: Top Gun: Maverick

Where:

posted around campus

When: rough drafts in by Feb 3

Next Gateway to Cinema on Feb 24 is a student's choice one and people voted 

Top Gun: Maverick

! Here's a 

doc

 with all the info you need to help you with the rough drafts.

Purity Test: Glass Onion

Where:

published on our website

When: rough drafts by Feb 2

The Gateway

's annual Purity Test is back and the theme is the recent murder mystery movie

Glass Onion!

Along with having to be in theme, Purity Test illustrations tend to be NSFW in nature so we would also like to see something along those lines in your portfolio submission. The finished product will look something like the Purity Test from

last year

and

2021

.

The illustrator chosen will have to have the second draft in by Feb 9 and the final draft in by Feb 16. This gives time for for potential timeline leeway, as we are planning a publish date by the end of Feb.

State of the Art: Call for general illustration submissions!

Where:

published online

When:

no particular due date, open year-round

Although our magazine run is cut short, we're currently building up a space on the site to house all your cool artworks. Submissions may include, but are not limited to, illustrations (traditional or digital) and comics. Here's an

example

from one of our volunteers from last month!
