A message on Snapchat can live anywhere from one second to 24 hours. After that, poof it’s gone. There is a way to add personal stamp with more longevity to the platform, however. Geofilters are
special overlays for Snaps
that can only be accessed in certain locations.
In partnership with Snapchat, we're offering fans the opportunity to design original geofilters that will be active in four MLS markets during opening weekend. Post your original artwork on Twitter using the hashtag #MLSsnapchat for a chance to win. One overlay for each market below will be selected:
- Los Angeles (StubHub Center)
- Orlando (Citrus Bowl Stadium)
- Kansas City (Sporting Park)
- Seattle (CenturyLink Field)
UPDATE: Congrats to our four contest winners! The below designs will be seen at the StubHub Center in LA, the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Sporting Park in Kansas City and CenturyLink Field in Seattle.
Here's how to create an overlay:
-
Submit a web-optimized, transparent PNG. The png should have a width of 1080 pixels and a height of 1920 pixels.
-
Leave a buffer zone on the top and the bottom of the phone.
-
Avoid borders!
The promotion will run from Tuesday, February 24 at 12pm ET until Monday, March 2 at 11:59pm ET.
