A new dedicated online creative portal showcasing student talent from around the world.
United Kingdom, March 2006
James Chambers and Tom Judd have recently launched a website dedicated to
showcasing the best student talent from around the world. A portal run by students
for students, 5oup.com provides each successful applicant with a profile page that
includes a personal introduction and 4 images of their best work.
On top of this, 5oup.com also provides news, inspirational links and current art
and design competition details. Students themselves, James Chambers and Tom
Judd have big plans for the site and are currently looking to incorporate additional
content.
"We want to provide student artists with information that will encourage them to
explore the various ways that the Internet can be utilised for self promotion. This
new content will consist of tutorials, articles and interviews," Tom Judd, co-founder
of 5oup.com.
Bianca Zen, Editor of TAXI Design Network commented, " This creative initiative
of 5oup is very commendable and entrepreneurial. 5oup has very sharp foresight
for the future. With the vast contribution these emerging artists will make, the
design industry will not only gain new talents but it will also benefit from the
credulous growth 5oup will bring. Besides sponsoring this press release,
TAXI Design Network hopes to work closely with 5oup to build this young nation
of talents. "
James Chambers and Tom Judd are keen to bridge the gap that currently exists
between education and the professional world and hope 5oup.com will become
popular in both these areas.
This press release is sponsored by TAXI Design Network.
