TELL THREADLESS YOUR STORY: Threadless and Stephen
Tobolowsky Challenge Designers to Incorporate True Stories
Into Works of Art
Community-centric tee shirt company
Threadless.com is asking designers to turn
the true stories of their lives into works of art in
its latest "Loves" campaign. To help lead
the way, Threadless has partnered up with original,
personal storytelling site Fray.com, self-publishing
site Blurb.com, and the film Stephen Tobolowsky's
Birthday Party, written by and starring famous character
actor Tobolowsky as he tells fascinating stories
from his life on-screen and off. Threadless, Fray, Blurb.com
and Stephen Tobolowsky are giving submitters the chance
to prove that extraordinary things happen to ordinary
people, and run wild with this challenge; tell their
stories through design. The chosen design could become
the cover of Fray's third volume of tales titled "Sex
and Death," so the design must incorporate these
two topics into its art.
"Threadless Loves" challenges give designers
an opportunity to flex their skills and design to a
particular challenge. Challenges are sponsored and supported
by companies relevant to the idea. Previous "Loves"
partners include Hot Chip, Moby, MTV's
Human Giant, and the Lomographic Society
International.
The designer of the chosen true story will also receive
goodies from each partner including a personal subscription
to Fray quarterly and two additional subscriptions for
friends, $150 to go towards a personal Blurb book, an
outgoing voicemail message recorded by Stephen Tobolowsky
himself, and an autographed copy of Stephen Tobolowsky's
Birthday Party DVD and poster. In addition, the
designer chosen gets $2k in cash, and of course, his
or her design on an awesome Threadless tee.
