Ninette and her team reached out to our artist community, asking them to submit their artwork or photos revolving around the idea of bringing back the sexiness of safe sex. The winning pieces are to be used in future DAA campaigns and there were 4 winners chosen!

Nick Lovell is a Los Angeles based photographer who entered this competition with a clear vision: “When I heard that DAA was having a contest with the goal of making safe sex sexy, I jumped at the opportunity. Several years ago, someone surprised me by saying “no one dies of AIDS anymore.”

Rayner Seah is a graduate student in Marketing & Communications and lives in Singapore. To raise HIV/AIDS awareness he created this strong collage of notable artists who had two things in common: AIDS & talent.

Saima Altunkaya is an artist who studied and worked in Hamburg as a photographer assistant before moving to Paris where she found what she was looking for in photography — beauty and portraits.

Ashley Tolusic is an artist and graphic designer who was interested in art from a very young age. She aspires to travel and be inspired while taking the world by storm with her creativity.

We are very honored to be a part of such an important cause and proud of all of the artists who took the time to create some beautiful and powerful artwork. Be sure to take a look at the rest of the submissions and show your support! Congratulations to our winners and thank you to everyone involved!!

The winner will receive $10,000 in video equipment, be part of the global release and have the opportunity to meet with Eric Levi, the judge of the final entries and also the man behind Era.

All you have to do is create a video to the song “Ameno” (you can download it when you login and click participate.) The concept of your video can draw influence from fantasy literature and movies, with epic imagery to match the mood of this new age masterpiece. Characters created within the initial video will also be used elsewhere in the campaign as it unfolds through 2010.

Don’t miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity.

You can find the creative invite here.

Good luck and let us know if you have any further questions.

And the winner is – Blair Taylor from New Orleans and the making of “Cross The Border” (w/ VScript).

As all the submissions are so amazing we are working on a way how to provide further opportunities and mentorship to the runner-ups and are planning an online video conference with Ryan Leslie to ask questions about the industry and get feedback on their work.
