Sublime Rush is a magazine for independent artists, rock stars, photographers, writers, models, webmasters, mistresses, illustrators, performers, body modders, designers, musicians, tech addicts, directors, social butterflies, film-makers, publishers, pin-ups, record labels, fashionistas, distributors, promoters and digital media glitterati, to showcase your creative passion and inspire a global audience with eyes, ears and minds wide open.
Sublime Rush is exclusively web-published and the first issue, released mid-October 09, has had almost 30,000 unique pageviews from readers all over the world. You can get more information and read the magazine online at the official website, SublimeRush.com, follow us on Twitter, keep up with us on Facebook and MySpace, and submit individual images for inclusion through the Sublime Rush group on Flickr.
So you’ve read issue 001, hooked up with Sublime Rush online and now you’d like to contribute YOUR work to issue 002, where it will be seen by a whole heap (technical terminology) of people? Here’s how…
Providing that you are OVER 18, you are welcome to contribute just about any kind of independent art-, culture- and entertainment-based content, as long as it is YOUR work and that it doesn’t contain derogatory or threatening statements about individuals or groups, or encourage attacks on any person or group of people for any reason.
You should already have started promoting your own work before you ask Sublime Rush or anyone else to promote you, and you should send links to at least one (preferably more than one) place online where your work can be seen and identified as yours.
If you plan to submit photographs that you didn’t take as part of your contribution (for example, models or bands), you absolutely must have permission from the photographer, and you must provide crediting information including the photographer’s name, website and email address. Artists whose work has been submitted by someone else to illustrate a contribution will be contacted!
We do ask that contributions be made up of finished pieces of work, preferably as part of a collection or existing project or venture. You must be willing to talk about yourself and your work too – it’s YOUR work, so you should have something to say about it!
If you would like to submit just one image without any further details, a great way to do this is through the official Sublime Rush Flickr group.
Depending on the level of interest and the amount of available time when the magazine is being put together, it may not be possible to contact unsuccessful applicants. Please be aware that magazines are often built around features, themes and concepts, so while not all contributions will be relevant at the time when they are first offered, some may be more appropriate for future issues.
At this stage in the magazine’s development, work for Sublime Rush is undertaken on a voluntary basis.
To submit your work for consideration, please email Tanya at mail@sublimerush.com
THE CONTENT DEADLINE FOR ISSUE 002 IS 30TH NOVEMBER 2009.
THE MAGAZINE WILL BE PUBLISHED IN JANUARY 2010.
