SLAM

So – who is your hero? That’s the question we’re asking in the run-up to publishing Nick Hornby’s first ever book for teens, Slam. It stars Sam, a 16-year-old skater whose girlfriend gets pregnant and his whole world flips upside down. He turns to his idol for advice, skate legend Tony Hawk, talking to him through the poster on his bedroom wall.

See where we’re going with this? Design a poster of your hero and win the chance to have it exhibited at London’s Design Museum, alongside the work of our celebrated designers. We’ve teamed up with seven cutting edge designers including eboy, Maya Wild and Peter Stitson, who have created these posters of the heroes and heroines from their own teenage days.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The fourteen finalists will also win the chance to be a VIP at Slam’s London launch party.

Interested? Just go to www.mtv.co.uk/slam to enter. And from mid- September see your entries on spinebreakers.co.uk.
It’s that simple. Show us what you’ve got.
