Contest in the Works - Weekly Review

Journal Entry: Mon Apr 7, 2008, 1:55 PM
  • Mood: Artistic
*EDIT*
To promote submissions, I was thinking of adding a new mini-contest to the club. Now every two weeks I will choose the featured deviation of the club to be the submission with the best review, and that is the most helpful. This way you guys will get a little more publicity for your photos, and your review will help more people. I am going to start this on next Tuesday, April 14th. I will make a journal and put the submission for that week up. Good luck, and get shooting ^^


Contest Ideas
So with the club back up and running, I was thinking of hosting a contest! However I have no idea of what the contest should be about. Our last mini-contest was a detailed review of IR photography, and i was thinking maybe we could do something like that again. So I am asking you guys: is there any topic within photography that you want a more detailed review about, or something that is just so out there and weird that we have not even considered covering it? Leave a comment at the bottom of the journal with ideas and we will come up with the contest.

However it will be hard to feature the winners of the contest (let alone any member of the club) if we can not have thumbnails in our journal. I feel bad asking this, but can any of you guys buy the club a subscription? We would greatly appreciate the gesture and will feature the person who donates it in our next journal.

Also I want to thank you guys for supporting the club and making it everything that it is. Without you guys this club would be nothing. So thanks again for all the great submissions and reviews, and i hope you guys have learned something from them.

Also we have a new admin who has been doing a great job of updating the club, so i would like to give a big thanks to ~Tizrael :heart:

Welcome!
If this is your first time visiting our fine club let me explain what we are about. This is a club dedicated to teaching others about photography. We submit photos and explain the techniques we used to take the photos in a review. So come join our club and learn something new about photography!

Joining
To join the club all you have to do is send the club a not with the topic of "join," add us to your friends list, and our name or icon to your journal. We also have a stamp you can put in your journal if you are a subscriber. Anybody can join the club. You can join to teach, learn, or just to support the club.

Submitting
Once you are a member of the club, you can start submitting your photographs. You can submit any photograph that you like as long as you think you can teach something about photography from it. You can submit these photos by sending us a note with the link to the photo, some technical info, and a review that teaches the viewers.

These reviews need to include technical information such as type of camera, lens used, aperture, shutter speed, or any other equipment you used that helped you. The review should tell how you took the photo not why and not explaining what is in the photo. Explain in detail the techniques you used that got you the results you got; so other could take this info and reproduce a photo of the same style. You could also explain in detail rules of photography that are used in the photo. These could include compsition, lighting techniques, color, IR photography or anything else ranging from beginers to advanced photography.

Here is are examples of photos from our gallery with acceptable reviews:


Unacceptable reviews only explain what the photographer is feeling when he/she took the photo, and does not teach the viewer anything. While feeling and inspiration are important to understanding a photograph, we want more. A good question to ask yourself before submitting a review is "Can I learn anything from this?" Please understand that if a review does not meet our requirements that we will not post it in our gallery, and will probably ask you to rewrite it. Please understand that you are not obligated to rewrite the review if you dont want to. Remember this club is for fun! There is not limit to submissions for now, however if we get spammed by your photos we will put one on the club.

Affiliates
If you want to affiliate your club with ours, send us a note and we will add you!

Featured Artists
We will continue featuring artists in our journal once we get a subscription

Also a reminder this is a club so please DO NOT FAV ANY OF THE PHOTOS IN OUR GALLERY! go to the original on the artists page to fav the photo.

If you have any questions or concerns note ~MarshmallowsYAY

And if the sun seems grey no light
I can make it digitally bright
Going out to colour them mountains
Slow it down or speed it up
Turn around and make a stop
And we'll care for making it right... (c)
