After extending the deadline I received an influx of submissions. Within the extra 7 days NEST received another 50 submissions, containing a more varied mix of photography, illustration, screenprint, monoprint, fashion photography, animation, performance art and sculpture. This equalled roughly 80 submissions in total, significantly more than had been received for previous issues of the magazine. Extending the deadline proved to be successful for the magazine as these new submissions would provide a more accurate cross section of the students and the talent at LCA, and ultimately fulfil the aims set out for the new issue.
