Montage 2005 - NUSPS

[photo_kbc]

We did mess the pictures up but it is never perfect. Try rearranging hundreds of pictures and not to damage them. We do not need them in order as we just have to key in the index and the score and the program will enter into the data base. They do not need to be in running order.

i guess your guys didn't really rearrange them in a "mess". 900 or 1000 over prints per cat' are VERY normal for photo compeititions... if your rules stated that "organiser will not take responsbility for damges duing competition",then u guys can work with not worries..

4 friends of mine submitted in a bag with over 50 pictures and all 50 pictures comes out together......i have seen so many competitions and this is the only competition all 50 photo comes out together on the panel...... this will cause unfairness in judges view.

no flames..... because u guys only do this once a year and not always the same guys..... we also watch judging and at less 7-10 PER year, so we know how this works and these organisers work perfectly well..... if possible, let your guys watch how SAFRA photo club works during the Photographer of the Year judging..... they always have over 1000 prints to sort out....

Judging is judging on whether the judges like your shot or not, not because of whether ur photo is good or technically well done.

So, guys, dun be so hard up on yourself, you still can hang up those beatiful 8R in your rooms or workplace.

-Advice to participants, if you are out to win, then look out who are the judges. That is the usual key factors, besides having an appealing and outstanding photo.

-Advice to organizers, relax, and take all those comments into consideration, than pass on to the next batch. Learning is an essential part of organising.

Yes, You need an authorization letter signed by the party you are collecting on behalf of, with the other party's NRIC No.

That's why we need to interview the winners of the students category and also ask for proof of student identity.

Some of the many things we have to do but most ppl won't know of..........

 

[leeter]

I don't see why 'studenst' are incapable of producing 'winning' entries.
afterall, it's not the age or even 'how long ya've been into photography' that counts. it's about being able to see it and make it.

hey, aren't ya a student too ??

If a person is out to cheat, then there is only so much the organisers can do.

Do you want all montage winners to go through a lie detector? :dunno:

 

[Fluorite]
