“A Better Tomorrow” Design Contest

Just a word from Jacky at Play Imaginitive about The “A Better Tomorrow” Design Contest, the Deadline has been extended to Jan 31st due to popular demand.

Play Imaginative (PI)and The Coca-Cola Company have launched a 2nd licensing program themed “A Better Tomorrow”. ‘trexi’ is the medium — the challenge is to depict your own personal definition of happiness creatively, and show the world what your vision of “A Better Tomorrow” looks like.

With 25 designs in total, the top 15 designs will be chosen by online public voting to join 10 other internationally renowned character artists such as Tokidoki (please see attached for design), Cupco and Mad Barbarians in the trexi series, set for launch in May 2007. Attractive prizes to be won including USD$10,000 for the first place, and the opportunity to see your design on a limited edition Coca-Cola bottle.

UCP Google and Wooster on Spring

Not only did UCP founder Abe Lincoln Jr. get to represent his work on the coveted inside of the Wooster on Spring show, but UCP made it’s first appearance in the streets of NYC with its latest value added partner Google.com. UCP’s Creative Team led the design of this ad. We brought the look and field Google’s ubiquitous and distinctive Ad Sense ads to the real world for the premier gathering of urban art and commerce. Look for more new and innovative creative designs coming from Urban Creative Partners!

Urban Creative Partners vs. SkyGRANDPager

UCP is proud to announce the final artist in the first series of the Are You Stoked?tm campaign. New York City’s SkyGRANDPager has been busy getting up all over New York City for the past several years. His iconic character is based on hip-hop legend JustIce. SkyGRANDPager is the newest member of the UCP family and you’ll be seeing work from him and all the other artists on the roster soon!

A word from SkyGRANDPager:

“I’m really excited to be partnering with Urban Creative Partners. They’re offering some fantastic services to the Street/Urban Art community. I myself plan on working with UCP and thier team of 360° Urban Consultants!”

Urban Creative Partners vs. Matt Siren

We’re now proud to announce the second artist we’ve contracted for the Urban Creative Partners “Are You Stoked?™” campaign. Matt Siren is an extremely talented Street Artist from NYC and has been “on the grind” for the past few years here. Matt says of UCP

“Urban Creative Partners is a revolution in Marketing Services for an underserved niche market that has UNLIMITED growth potential. The skills and comprehensive services that UCP offer are INVALUABLE to the emerging Street/Urban Artist!”

Urban Creative Partners vs. The Viking

For our first collaborative effort with an artist, we couldn’t be happier to announce that we’ve signed on The Viking as our first UCP Artist. The Viking is a talented Street Artist who’s work can be found all over Chicago. The Viking is a tough nut to crack though, his vehement rejection of the traditional fine art world and critical eye on his own Street Art brethren make him a coup for UCP and the first feather in our Urban Cap!

Here’s what The Viking has to say about Urban Creative Partners:

“UCP has been great for my business. Not only has my earning potential INCREASED 3 FOLD in the our second quarter, but I got finally got my pilots wings aka entry into “mile high club” on a recent business trip to San Jose! I cant thank them enough for their help marketing my ‘urban style art” MAD PROPS!”

Look for The Viking’s work for UCP in a town near you!

Urban Creative Partners welcomes MySpacers!

A warm welcome to MySpace users and future friends! Be sure to take a look around at What We Do and Who We Are to get a good feel for what UCP is trying to do to level the Urban Arts playing field. Perhaps we have a solution thats right for YOU!
We’re committed to making MySpace an important component of our marketing strategy in the coming year, so to stay attuned to whats going down with UCP by all means add us as a friend!
