ICMA for Magazines.

The ICMA has four categories. This booklet is about the category for magazines. Information on the other categories of the ICMA can be found here: www.icma-award.com

Why should I take part in this competition?

In the magazine “Page” there was the following quote from a designer about this: “We have been in agreement for some years that there is no cheaper advertising than participation in design competitions. How much more would we have to spend without this simple method in order to attract attention! And what’s nicer than the accolade of colleagues?”

The objective of the comeptition: Exchange of creative ideas.

There are competitions in a lot of countries on corporate media, books, corporate design and magazine design, which take place in separated competitions. The ICMA aims to support the exchange of ideas at the international platform. This is why the call for entries is send to more than 9000 designers, custom media specialists, book publishers and magazines worldwide.

Further objectives of the competition:  Disclosing trends: The results of the competition give everyone the opportunity to classify his or her object in international comparison, and to quickly execute optimisation measures for his or her own product.  Impact outwardly: Winners report intensively on the Awards they have won, on their websites and in print media. They thus underscore their standards of quality and at the same time get involved in their own advertising.  Think tank: Publication of the winners in the ICMA‘s Almanac and on www.icma-award.com promote their own creativity.

“Schöner Wohnen”, a high-circulation magazine from the publishers Gruner + Jahr, reports on the Award at the 6th ICMA.

”Harper‘s Bazaar Singapore“ reports on the Awards the magazine won at the 6th ICMA.

Students of the Werbe Design Akademie (Advertising Design Academy) Innsbruck are pleased about the Award for their magazine “shortcut”.

In its printed edition, the editors of “Musikfreunde” (Music Friends), Vienna, report on the Awards of Excellence this magazine has won on an entire page.

Synsation Brand Design, Australia, reports on the Awards for the Visual Identity of the Faculty for Arts & Social Sciences of UNSW (University of South Australia).

4.1.7. Women and Fashion.

nüyou, August 2016 SPH Magazines Pte Ltd Singapore, SG Gold Award

The magazine “nüyou” appearing in Singapore has taken “red hot” as the title topic of this issue. The photo on this two-page spread on the subject of health works very well as visualisation. The text blocks are divided up with interlines. Between the columns are two pastel-shaded circles containing little additions to the topic. The white space is well distributed.

nüyou, Fabulous 40 SPH Magazines Pte Ltd Singapore, SG Gold Award

Fashion magazines the world over look for stimulating ways of presenting fashion, accessories, jewellery and watches. This example shows a combination of watches and exotic fish. A real eyecatcher.

Bier Motor Presse Stuttgart, D Silver Award As well as short articles “Beer” also has photo reports, in which, alongside photos and texts, infographics are used to explain details or production processes. The photo-reportage entitled “Dann brauen wir unser Bier eben selbst” (“Right, then we’ll brew our own beer”) shown here comes over as very authentic. The choice of photos, image sizes and picture editing are well done.

Savour, July/August 2016 SPH Magazines Pte Ltd Singapore, SG Bronze Award

This issue of the magazine „Savour“ is devoted to the topic of Asia. On the cover page it says, “Fresh and piquant flavours to perk up your meals”. Especially impressive for its simplicity is the page with the tart bases on it. The title “State of the tart” is simply inserted in the bases. In this article cooks and one creation by each are presented.

Chrismon Chrismon HDV, D Bronze Award

„Chrismon“ is an evangelical magazine. This issue is about the work of Hieronymus Bosch. In the introduction to the cover story it says, „Manga girls, aliens and androids – are they really new? The Flemish painter Hieronymus Bosch, whose death is being remembered this year, was fantasising, mystifying and mixing man, animal and material long before these came along.“

4.1.16. Economy and Finance.

Markt, Studio Piraat, NL Deutsch-Niederländische Handelskammer, D Gold Award

“Markt” (“Market”) is a Germany-Dutch business magazine produced

by Studio Piraat in The Hague. The client is the German-Dutch Chamber of Trade & Industry. Work is done with a lot of attention to detail.

Example: use typography to visualise stress. Just rotate and mirror a few letters, and it’s perfect! Website: www.dnhk.org

4.1.16. Economy and Finance.

The cover shows the cover story “50 stille Aktien-Stars” (“Fift y Hidden Star Shares”). The share price performance is presented visually: the colours are also an infographic, because the share price is shown by Nippon Paint.

The page with the cushion on it refers to a New Zealand operator of luxury retirement homes. The price is embroidered.

The two-page spread with the electrical flex on it refers to a Chinese company group, Techtronic Industries.

This company, for example, manufactures vacuum cleaners of the brands Dirt Devil and Hoover. The flex mimics the share price performance.

Capital 7/2016 G+J Wirtschaftsmedien GmbH & Co. KG, D Silver Award, Infographics

Capital 05/2016 G+J Wirtschaftsmdedien GmbH & Co. KG, D, Bronze Award In the special issue of “Capital” devoted to the topic of real property there is a photo-report about Pforzheim. The photographer moves from overall views to detailed pictures. The result looks objective, sober, documental and ... typically German.

Star Wars figures are used as illustrations.

4.10. Cover and cover story.

The cover story is the heart of every magazine. The front page makes the reader curious and after the first inside pages he finds the cover story: a number of pages with photos, illustrations or infographics and text.

Migros Magazin Migros Genossenschaftsbund, CH Silver Award

The Migros magazine has brought out an issue with a double cover. One story is entitled “What girls like” and is on a pink background, the other is entitled “What boys like” and is on a blue background. The illustrations on both covers are especially eyecatching.

The subject of this cover story is cakes. Shown on the left on each of the two-page spreads are the ingredients: raspberries, apples, strawberries. On the right are the recipes, tips for preparation and a photo of each finished cake. The fruit with the titles printed over them especially make very well arranged eyecatchers.

4.12. Photography.

This category is about image formats, perspective, cut of pictures and variation in image sizes in the page-layout.

Single photographies will not be evaluated, just pictures that have been published as part of a publication.

Desserts are arranged diagonally on the pages. Diagonals always look and feel dynamic and exciting. The dark shadows of the desserts and the backgrounds in different pastel shades play a special role. A great detail: you can still see the hands that place the desserts on the page.

“Alkohol war mein Partner” (“Alcohol was my partner”) is the title. The illustration emerges from the mark that a wine glass leaves behind it on the tablecloth.

“Sein längster Kampf” (“His longest fight”) is the title. The header states, “The Japanese boxer Iwao Hakamada sat on death row for nearly half a century for a crime he did not commit. He expected to be executed any day.”

This photo-reportage is about the children of drop-outs who settled on the island of La Gomera in the nineteen seventies. One of the questions asked in the article was “What do these young people think is their homeland, what future do they have?”

“Des Schmiedes Glück” (“Smith’s pleasure”) is the title of the photo-reportage on the work of a smith. The photos capture the atmosphere very well. The work is shown naturally and documentally. A good idea: the detailed shots with a white border.
