Pieces from a Symphony Photo Contest
Symphony will be having its grand opening soon, and we’d like to invite you join in the festivities with a photo contest worth L$10,000! Ando Joubert worked hard to bring Symphony to life, now it’s your turn: the goal of this contest is to gather impressions of Symphony from the best photographers in SL to celebrate its grand opening.
RULES & GUIDELINES—————————————-
Entry is free, and the rules are simple:
1) The photo must be taken on location anywhere on Symphony, and post-production very welcome.
2) You can enter up to 3 images
3) There are no restrictions regarding content (though it’s unlikely overly “intimate” portraits will make the final cut
Guidelines: use high resolution pictures to disk, with the smallest dimension at *least* 1024. While excellent work at lower resolution will be considered, high res pics will present both to the judges and to the public much better.
SUBMISSIONS —————————————-
Send a notecard to Ando Joubert inworld, entitled [your name] [Symphony photo]; in the body of the notecard, include a statement about your photograph including picture dimensions in pixels, and include the high-resolution photograph in the notecard.
JUDGING————————————-
The contest will run from now until June 1. Selection will be by a panel of judges, and their decision will be final. We’ll look for all the right notes – composition, originality, creativity, and how well the image captures the essence of this Symphony.
WINNERS————————————
The winners will be announced at the Grand Opening celebration Friday, June 12th, at 4pm SLT
First prize: L$10,000
Second prize: L$5000
Third prize: L$1000
The top 10 entries will be displayed in the Hopper House Gallery on Symphony through June. These 10 artists may choose to set their work for sale, with no commission charged for the duration of the display. Contest entries will be posted on flickr as they’re received.
