The Little Hawk is featured as a finalist in the NSPA’s 2013 National Photo and Design contest.
The photos by City High’s Ryan Young ’13, and Kierra Zapf ’15, were selected among 1200 submissions, with only ten selected as finalists in each category. The photos were judged on technical, artistic, and journalistic qualities.
City High’s Jason Arnold ’13, and Nora Holman ’13 were selected as finalists for the National Design contest. Their design was selected among over 600 entries, and were judged based on effective use of photos, color, art, graphics and typography.
“I think this will be good, positive press,” current Little Hawk co-executive editor Ellen Carmen ’13 said. “It’s a good motivator for our staff. But at the end of the day, we win these awards because we are the number one high school news source.”
