LG’s UltraWide Festival is back for its fourth edition
The tech giant is giving creators the chance to win big prizes
Tech company LG has announced the fourth edition of UltraWide Festival. The event gives support to creators of music, film and other creative outlets by providing funding and equipment to creative industries, as well as offering opportunities to win prizes.
The theme for this year’s event is ‘My UltraWide Time’, with a focus on the process of creating rather than the product itself. If you’re a music producer, video maker, graphic designer, blogger or do anything creative, LG wants to hear from you.
The festival gives you the opportunity to take a quiz, describe a moment or share a story about your creative workflow to be in with the chance of winning prizes including UltraWide monitors. The screens are designed to show you more of your projects at a glance so that you can focus on the ideas. Click here to find out how UltraWide has enhanced Norwegian producer Alan Walker’s workflow.
Walker said: “Making music takes a lot of time and effort, not something that just happens with a snap. It takes time but is a very fun road to go.”
Also, since 2015 LG has run UltraWide-themed projects including an Academy Sponsorship to provide state-of-the-art equipment to creative schools such as the Royal College of Art and Parsons School of Design.
Vancouver Film School was UltraWide’s selection this year, decking it out with an academy lab.
Vancouver Film School’s Head of Animation, Colin Giles said: "The creative digital art is an exciting canvas for any idea you can create with the possibilities being endless. The students will benefit from this strong partnership with LG and the LG UltraWide Monitor Academy Lab by having access to a literal canvas that removes any possible barrier to their imagination. With a wide, seamless screen that allows for a more immersive use of the software at hand and a colour range that meets their own imagination, their creations will jump into reality. ‘The more you see, the better you create' has never been truer than at VFS."
