SUMMARY
The "Hiii Illustration International Competition" has been officially renamed as the "Hiii Illustration International Awards". This award calls for illustration works from illustrators, creative agencies, teachers and students all over the world. It aims to discover outstanding illustration talents at home and abroad, commend excellent illustration works and promote the development of the illustration industry.
Since 2012, the Hiii Illustration International Awards has been held for twelve consecutive years. During this period, more than 60 international judges from five continents have been invited to participate in the review work, and a total of more than 30,000 entries from over 100 countries or regions have been received. After more than ten years of development and accumulation, the Hiii Illustration International Awards is one of the few heavyweight illustration awards in terms of the scale of participation, the quality of works and the influence in the industry in the Asia-Pacific region and even globally.
Hiii Illustration 2024, the 12nd Hiii Illustration International Awards, has five categories: A - Commercial Application, B - Publication, C - Children's Picture Book, D - Uncommissioned Work, and E - Animation. The award will go through a three-round strict review process to select awards in each category and give commendations.
