DVC student designs chosen for Oakland billboards
Oakland Digital sponsors an annual billboard design competition called Inspire Oakland.
80 students from 13 schools across the bay area competed in this year's design challenge,
and eight DVC students made the final 16. Four DVC students made the final eight and
each of their designs will be seen on a billboard in Oakland.
Launched in 2009, Oakland Digital is an award-winning, non-profit, digital marketing agency that trains design students in creating social media marketing campaigns for under-resourced, women-owned, small businesses.
"This is an amazing opportunity for our students to complete a real world design challenge. The students selected to have their designs on billboards will get tremendous exposure and opportunity that will jump start their careers." said Joann Denning a DVC Art Digital Media faculty member.
Please join us in congratulating these students on their hard work and doing an amazing job representing our school in the competition.
