If you are still in the process of creating your entry, here is some guidance to help you conceptualise the shoot that will wow the world!
Imagine
Let your imagination run wild. Envision your collection. What will you show the world? How will the colours, shapes and textures look? Once you have your vision, assemble your mood board to bring it to life. Review, refine and reimagine it, and repeat until you’re satisfied.
Create
Find your muse – the perfect models for your looks. Assemble your team. It’s time for you to bring your vision to life. Be clear and focused. Push yourself and make your entry as fabulous and eyecatching as it can be. BUT – remember to read the rules carefully so that your entry is valid for the category you choose and it stands the best chance of success.
Inspire
Now it’s time for you to put your creation out there and inspire the entire world! Enter your photographic work in the Global Creative Awards by submitting it on www.globalcreativeawards.com and share your vision with hairdressing professionals all over the globe.
