All entries are NOT to be mounted. They prefer them to be submitted individually in transparent envelopes. Manila and the gold envelopes are also acceptable, however, not preferred.

To be included in each transparent envelop with your work:
• entry number attached to pack of piece
• 2 copies of entry form behind the entry

If you are submitting a 3-D piece, submit it in a box. Attach the entry form to the inside bottom of the box, then the piece will sit on top of that with the entry number attached to the piece.

If you are submitting a non-traditional ad (environmental, etc) submit a paragraph of how it would be used.

If you are submitting certain elements that appear in a piece (such as illustrations, photos, logos, etc.) submit the same way. If it’s a logo, explain the type of company with 1 or 2 words.

If you are submitting a campaign:
• label each piece with the entry number on the back in the upper right corner
• label entry “1 of 3”, “2 of 3”, “3 of 3”
• extra copy of entry form inside envelope

If you are submitting mixed media:
• indicate each entry “1 of 3”, “2 of 3”, “3 of 3”
• submit in one large envelope

Campaigns can be submitted as one and the individual pieces can be submitted as single pieces. Different envelopes are required.

Make sure you fill out all of the paper work for each entry on-line (www.orlandoaddys.com).
When you are registering on-line and you are an Ad Club member, you must choose Orlando Advertising Federation (it is towards the bottom of the list). Print out two copies of each entry form and a copy of the manifest (not submitting a manifest as well can disqualify your entry!) for each entry you submit. You need to bring the entry forms the day of submission. Payment can be made on-line this year. For students, it’s $20 an entry.

Also put a labeled CD containing a PDF of each piece in each entry envelope (including 3D work photographed in it’s 3D form) so that if/when your work is chosen for an award, they can use that PDF to show your work during the awards presentation.
