Welcome to Vectober: Icon-o-ween – a month-long artistic journey filled with spooky and Halloween-inspired creativity! This challenge invites artists, designers, and creatives of all backgrounds to unleash their skills and embrace the spirit of the season. Throughout October, your mission is to craft a unique icon every day, each centered around a spine-tingling, eerie, or Halloween-themed word associated with the date. Whether you’re an experienced artist/graphic designer or just starting out, this challenge is an opportunity to explore your artistic abilities, experiment with vector graphics, and celebrate the hauntingly delightful atmosphere of October.
Challenge Guidelines:
- Duration: Vectober spans the entire month of October, giving you 31 days to complete 31 unique vector icons.
- Theme: Embrace the Halloween spirit by designing icons and/or art related to spooky, scary, and horror-themed words. Each day, you’ll receive a word prompt to guide your creative process. Words are open to interpretation. We aren’t sticklers. This is just about having fun. See step 6.
- Materials: Feel free to use these prompts for any art style; using any medium. Feel free to explore different styles and techniques. Traditionally icons are made with vector graphics programs. We don’t need to be traditional. Do whatever you want.
- Sharing: Share your daily creations on social media using the hashtag #Vectober and #Iconoween. This allows you to connect with fellow artists and showcase your talent. Also would be dope if you could share the prompt list & flyer as well.
- Engagement: We encourage interaction and feedback among participants. Comment on and support each other’s work to foster a vibrant creative community.
- Have Fun: Most importantly, have fun and let your imagination run wild! Vectober is about creative exploration and embracing the Halloween spirit.
