1. What is Viz-a-GoGo?

Viz-A-GoGo is an annual art exhibition of student work that showcases work from the previous year. Submitted works will be judged by industry alumni and professionals for a Vizzie award. Learn more about Viz-A-GoGo on our about page.

2. What time frame of work is eligible?

Any work from Summer 2024, Fall 2024, and Spring 2025 can be submitted to Viz-A-GoGo 32.

3. Can works in progress be submitted?

Yes! If your WIP work has been accepted, the confirmation email will include a form to submit the most updated work. Please send in any work-in-progress updates before April 28th, 11:59 AM.

4. When do I need to finish my work?

Submit your work by April 16th in order to be considered into the show. If your work is accepted into the show, you will get an email on April 23rd. If you have been accepted, you can still update work until April 28th, 11:59 AM.

5. Is there a limit on how much work you can submit?

Nope! Submit as much work as you want. The only thing we ask is to not submit the same project into multiple categories.

6. Can fan art be submitted?

You are allowed to submit fan art as long as it’s 100% your original work. We will flag the submission and send you an email if we think it includes property from the materials you’re referencing (i.e. traceovers, logos, copies).

7. Can my teacher submit for me?

NO! If you would like to be considered for an award, YOU must be the one to submit your work.

8. Can my work be in the show but be ineligible for an award?

YES, if it is digital! Faculty submissions of digital classwork reels will be allowed into the show but will be ineligible for a vizzie. This submission will be accepted into the screening on a first come first serve basis. Please note that ONLY the professor or TA of a class may make this submission.

9. I am not a Visualization student; can I still submit work?

Technically, yes. You must be enrolled in a VIST (or cross-listed VIST) course either in the Summer 2024, Fall 2024, or Spring 2025 and be submitting work from that class in order to be considered into the show.

10. How do I submit group work?

If you are submitting a team project, only one member of your team needs to submit. In the form, please include the names of each group member.

11. Can I submit a portion of a group assignment?

Yes! As long as you showcase only your work, you may submit a smaller portion of a larger project.

12. How much work can I submit?

As much as you want! Each piece of artwork should only be submitted once, but if you’ve created multiple different works, you can submit them all!

13. How do I submit work in a series?

For works in a series (multiple pieces of art in one submission), you must provide a link to the folder containing each of the pieces in addition to one image of all the pieces together structured in the way you would like them to be displayed in the show. The judges will look at the series as a whole, not the individual pieces.

14. My work has been accepted, what now?

All digital artwork (photography, digital flatwork, graphic design) will be printed for you according to the size information and file you provided us upon submission. All physical artwork (traditional flatwork, sculpture and installation, some interactive media) should be brought to the Hive in ARCC 416 by Monday, April 28th OR should be brought directly to Rudder Exhibition Hall on Tuesday, April 29th. All other work will be showcased in the form of a reel on a screen.

15. My submission requires extra equipment to be showcases, what do I do?

There will be a space with VR headsets and Windows laptops. However, to ensure your work is installed properly, we ask that you (or someone with knowledge of setting up your project) be available on Wednesday, April 30th to set it up. Please visit the Hive in ARCC 416 ahead of time if you need to check out additional equipment.
