Marysville, OH -- March 21, 2008-- UniKeep LLC, a Univenture company, announced Recording Artists as the second quarter Bonus Category theme for its “Fifth Annual UniKeep Design Awards Contest.” Entrants can design UniKeep CD/DVD Case and Binder covers for their own compositions, collections of music or concert tickets, favorite artists, indie band promotions and more.

“This is a great opportunity for musicians and graphic designers to use their imagination in designing UniKeep’s eco-friendly Binder covers, and potentially win a cash prize. The designed Binder covers offer a variety of uses: favorite recording artist compilations, promotional CDs and DVDs, concert sales and giveaways for indie bands, aspiring musicians and songwriters,” said Ross Youngs, CEO of UniKeep, and inventor of the UniKeep binder. “The creativity of the entries we’ve been receiving in all our categories has been remarkable and I can’t wait to see the entries for the Recording Artist theme!”

Judges for the contest are Jane Guthrie, Editor of Scrapbooking & Beyond, Natalie Rhinesmith, Technology Features Editor for All American Crafts, and Judi Kauffman, nationally known designer, writer and teacher.
