For 2013, we want to blow this out even further by making the 'DANCE (RED) SAVE LIVES 2 ' experience both musically and visually inspiring, and Adobe Creative Cloud tools are perfect to help us achieve this."

American graffiti artist Futura adds, "Every artist aspires to communicate a powerful message through their work. With this competition, Adobe Creative Cloud and (RED) are providing students with a dream opportunity to do just that, while entering the public arena on a global scale. I am very excited to be a part of the process and mentor the winning student."
