Links to all the weekly Qualifying Matches
Here's how the playoff field was selected. Shaun Inman and Jason Koxvold were last season’s co-champions. They’re in. Our 9000+ Season Ticket Holders elected the rest of the players. They chose four winners of regular season matches: Aaron Draplin, Scott Hansen, Sam Potts and Chris Glass. They also chose two of the 36 artists who took part in our weekly “Qualifying Matches” (q) to round out the field of eight: Greg Hubacek and Aaron Scamihorn prevailed in that very close voting.
We’re hosting a series of live design events called Layer Tennis. The season wouldn’t have happened without the support of Adobe® Creative Suite® 4, the weapon of choice for Layer Tennis players and creative professionals everywhere.
We'll be playing matches using video, animation, sound, photos, type and lots more, but the basic idea is the same no matter what tools are in use. Two competitors will swap a file back and forth in real-time, adding to and embellishing the work. Each artist gets fifteen minutes to complete a “volley” and then we post it to the site live. A third participant, a writer, provides play-by-play commentary on the action, as it happens. A match lasts for ten volleys and when it's complete, Season Ticket Holders tell us what they think and we'll declare a winner, so sign up today.
You can follow Layer Tennis on Twitter and if you're so inclined, be a fan of Layer Tennis on Facebook.
A production of Coudal Partners in Chicago.
Support and technical hand-holding by Tilted, the nation's most gracious hosting company.
