Contest Brief

PLEASE NOTE: WE DON'T NEED A NEW LOGO. WE NEED THE GRAPHIC DESIGN FOR A T-SHIRT/MERCHANDISING

We are in a hurry (our fault!) and we need a nice, cool design for the Rome BDSM Conference 2016, the largest european event of this kind, that will be held at the beginning of March. www.romebdsmconference.com
The purpose of the conference is to share knowledge about BDSM alternative lifestyle and is open to people of any gender and sexual orientation.
BDSM stands for Bondage, Discipline, Domination, Submission, Sadism, Masochism. It's a name that covers a wide range of sexual activities and is considered by most a true lifestyle.
The tshirt will be the main gadget and will serve as a promotional item.
Again: we need the t-shirt design, NOT the design of a new logo!
If you keep proposing things that show you didn't stop thinking for a split second to the concept, if you copy from existing designs we will remove you from this contest.

PREVIOUS DESIGN (just for reference - not to be used)
Last year design is shown in the attached file and was a way to sum up some of the combinations that could be found in this world, with 4 couples (Dom man/sub man, Dom man/sub woman, Dom woman/sub man, Dom woman/sub woman) and representing also some of the typical characters (some would say stereotypes) and BDSM activities.
We liked the concept behind this design a lot, but we want to have something fresher and even more appealing for this year.
The previous design has been shown only for reference, but you DON'T HAVE TO USE IT! We want original designs.

THE CONCEPT
BDSM must be shown as something positive and bright. The tshirt must show the pride of being a BDSMer and should make other people curious about it.
Ideally the tshirt should be as gender-neutral as possible (it's an event for people of any gender/sexual orientation).

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS:
- ONLY ORIGINAL DESIGNS. Be creative and don't be afraid to ask for more information.
- The design must not be vulgar or depict explicit sex scene.
- The design MUST be vector based (need .ai or .pdf file)
- The design will be printed on the front of a tshirt, so the size of the details must be taken into account (usually max width/height for the design is 30-35cm-12-14in) and of a canvas bag. Silk-screen printing will be used for both items. Keep that in mind when creating fine details.
- The design might or might not include the Conference logo (you can use also only the design, without the text)- The logo can be reduced to black and white, if needed.
- The design should include the Conference motto "Learn, share, play", but it's not mandatory.
- The design might or might not include the dates of the event (4-6 March 2016)
- The design has to have the minimum amount of colours (ideally one or two + the background given by the tshirts), to keep the cost of production as low as possible. Flat colours or halftones must be used. NO FULL COLOUR IMAGES, NO GRADIENTS.
- The design has to work both on black tshirts and white/coloured ones (so it must be possible to invert/change the main colours or it has to be outlined)

    Italian, I won a contest for an Italian contest holder designing a Logo and they didn't pay a Guaranteed Contest, so how to trust and to work for such people.

    Keep in mind that the printable area is not "the whole t-shirt". So designs that will outrange the standard maximum printable area will not be considered.

    WE NEED A GRAPHIC DESIGN FOR THE T-SHIRT!
    Be creative: don't just use pieces of the old design, don't just use the writing "Rome BDSM Conference", etc.
    We want something new and nice/fun. It has to be a tshirt that people will want to wear also everyday.

    WARNING FOR EVERYONE: we keep receiving entries of logos for the Conference. WE DON'T NEED A NEW LOGO. we have one and if you want to incorporate it in your design you can (but you shouldn't alter it if not to make it B/W).

    The name of the event IS NOT "BDSM 2016" or "ROME BDSM".
    If you want to integrate the name in your design, it has to be the FULL NAME of the event:
    "Rome BDSM Conference".
    Keep in mind that WE ALREADY HAVE A LOGO! We don't need another one. we need a tshirt.
