How it works

This year, the Digital Edge Awards have two briefs as well as two sets of prizes! All students will use Creative Cloud in their uni work. Don’t worry if you’ve never used Creative Cloud before, the Digital Edge Awards are open to students from all backgrounds.

To keep things fair, for those studying art, design, and other creative courses, students who are likely to be more familiar with these digital tools will work to a different brief than those who are studying subjects less likely to work with Creative Cloud. This way, you’ll only be judged against those with a similar skill set.
