A' Design Award's Digital Yearbook - How it Works in Great Detail
When you win the A' Design Award & Competition via Professional Edition or Digital Edition Entry, if your project was awarded in a public category, and if you had provided us a valid license and declaration to publish your work, your work will be published in A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook of Best Designs with a Distinct ISBN Number completely free of charge with the compliments of the A' Design Award, as part of the greater A' Design Prize. This benefit is different from inclusion in our other printed Hardcover Yearbooks of Best Designs we publish and is further distinct from Prime Editions which publish good designs thematically, A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbooks each have their own unique ISBN Number, and contain far more projects as our Digital Yearbook of Best Designs further includes Digital Edition winner works, in addition this yearbook may feature select Gold and Platinum works from other entry methods, at our sole discretion. The Digital Yearbook benefit indeed includes 3 distinct sub benefits that you should clearly understand as while we provide all these three benefits free of charge, other awards may charge you for each and every step. The Primary Benefit is pagination of your page. Typesetting, layout, visuals – we handle it all. When you win the A' Design Award via Professional Edition or Digital Edition Entry, if your project was awarded in a public category, and if you had provided us a valid license and declaration to publish your work, then you will obtain Free Yearbook Pagination Services. Many other awards charge book pagination fees, book contribution fees, or some sort of fee for such service, however A' Design Award & Competition Provides these benefits to you free of charge. The Second Benefit is the Complimentary Full-Page inclusion of your design in the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook Free of Charge. This is yet another important benefit which we shall explain because it is not granted by many awards: When we say we will include you in our prestigious Digital Yearbook, it means that your design will have a Full Dedicated Page in the yearbook. While A' Design Award provides you full page coverage, many other awards may pay partial coverage, sometimes your page would have multiple entries, so you would get a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a page, and sometimes, they say your name would be included or your design’s name, what they actually do is put your name in a long list. Of course, that’s not how you respect and promote good design, and that’s why A' Design Award laureates, when included in the Digital Yearbook, are granted a Full-Page coverage. So, make sure to join the A' Design Award via either Professional Edition Entry or Digital Edition entry in public categories to obtain this benefit and remember to upload your license timely. Once the yearbook is paginated, we cannot insert your page because it is not a website, but an e-book in PDF Format, with actual ISBN Registration. Moreover, because A' Design Award provides you a completely Dedicated Full Page, you don’t share your achievement with others, your page is not diluted with other brand’s works. The advantage is also that you are also given access to your yearbook page in digital image format, later you can download, print and showcase your yearbook page to visitors at your offices and sales points. Many brands print their yearbook page for their archives and some brands prefer displaying it in frames to showcase their success to clients, consumers and customers. The Third Primary Benefit is the Fact that you are given access to obtain a digital copy of the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook, once the results are announced, after Gala-Night and Award Ceremony, we activate the yearbook download options, and once activated, you can visit the Yearbooks page to download the PDF version of the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook, completely free of charge, with compliments. In a brief summary, A' Design Award allocates you a full dedicated page at its Digital Yearbook, and then makes design of the page complete with pagination, typesetting, layout and then provides you with completely free inclusion in the Digital Yearbook, and then also provides you a PDF copy of the Digital Yearbook. This is provided free of charge to all A' Design Award Professional Edition and Digital Edition winners. Because the Professional Edition winners are also included in our Hardcover Yearbooks, that also means that the A' Design Award Professional Edition laureates gain two ISBN registered publications each year for their winning designs. Unlike other well-known design competitions that typically monetize pagination, typesetting, full-page coverage, and digital yearbook access separately, the A' Design Award uniquely offers all Digital Yearbook features complimentary to eligible laureates of Professional and Digital Edition awards. A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook also offers valuable dissemination and publicity possibilities as is made available for purchase by design enthusiasts (apart from being given free to eligible laureates) which helps your work reach new audiences. Moreover, accredited journalists and press members are granted free access to the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook, with this, our aim is to get the eyes of editors on your winning designs, with a hope to cultivate further publication possibilities. What makes the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook more special is the works included within. The A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook is special for its scope and quality; first of all unlike the A' Design Award’s Hardcover Yearbooks, which are generally published in several volumes each year with a thematic focus and clustering of categories, the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook contains winners from all categories, which helps your good design get discovered by other winners; this is important because an award-winning interior designer discovering your award-winning furniture is highly relevant, likewise architects discovering new materials, digital artists discovering new devices, photographers discovering new cameras and equipment, brands discovering new packaging designers, it comes together and is part of our heuristic approach to helping your work gets discovered by brand managers, other successful creators, and companies. Moreover, A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook only contains works that have been awarded by the A' Design Award’s Grand Jury Panel, where influential journalists, prominent designers, established architects, industrial designers, brand managers vote on the nominated entries on pre-established evaluation criteria to select meritocratically some of the best designs of the world that year, together with highly professional designs that help make the world a better place with their superior characteristics and performance to benefit all. Your inclusion in the A' Design Award’s Digital Yearbook, starts with the submission, when you submit your design to the A' Design Award & Competition, you obtain a free preliminary score that communicates you how good your design is and how good your design presentation is. Let’s focus on the design presentation aspect here as it is what is important now: The design presentation aspect informs you how to improve your presentation and make it really good quality, the ultimate aim is that all entries have a perfect presentation so that they can be judged not on their presentation but the intrinsic quality, and the secondary aim of the presentation quality check we do, again completely free of charge for all A' Design Award entrants is to ensure the moment your work is awarded, it is already publishable, i.e. we want to enhance your chances of getting featured by journalists, both in traditional and digital media, and that’s why we ask you to also have very high resolution images, these images that we initially ask you to impress jury and later to increase your chances of publication, becomes very useful the moment we want to publish your book, because A' Design Award & Competition initially asks you to provide high resolution images and proper textual content for judging first of all, and then for journalist presentations, we have already at our hands all the materials to prepare your Digital Yearbook Page, without you lifting any finger; once you win, you do not need to do anything for preparing your yearbook page, except for reviewing it just in case; your pagination is done by us, you don’t have to upload images, you don’t have to input new text. Indeed, if you forgot to input text, we may ask you or if there is short time, we may use text you had already provided for your design submission, and then when there are errors in your yearbook, such as typos, unprintable foreign language characters, image issues, we fix it and charge you micro fees instead of bothering you, of course you are in full control with A.C.E. Settings : A' Design Award’s Automated Corrections and Enhancement system allows you to have full control over which kind of changes we can do on behalf of you, in the end, we only publish your work if we have a valid license and also we don’t change your design, just fix issues with images like image resolutions, typos and similar. These are all valuable because all these fixes, enhancements and corrections are done for all other winners as well, this way, when you are included in the Digital Yearbook, the quality of the book itself is good, which is distinct from the fact that the quality of entries in the book is also good. Moreover, because we already have good data, high-resolution visuals, descriptive texts, we can prepare your Digital Yearbook pages without taking your valuable time. We prepare your winner pages, we present to you, and we ask you to review it just in case, so you save great amount of time, and you can use your time to do what you do best; create award-winning products, projects and experiences that benefit and advance society. Having provided the preliminary review, presentation uplifting and yearbook pagination, the end result is you having a great looking yearbook page, fully dedicated to your winning design, without lifting a finger. Moreover, if you had won multiple A' Design Awards, again via Professional Edition or Digital Edition, you would have multiple yearbook pages, which is great, because then you can collect these pages, and showcase them together for an even greater marketing effect at your offices or sales points for example.
