Pro'ject Sound Submissions

This note is IMPORTANT for any photographer planning on submitting images for Proj'ect Sound*
We are ready to start receiving your images in all categories.  Please review the following criteria for each image.

Image Criteria
Each image you submit must

·         be in 'landscape' orientation

·         be the highest resolution possible

·         contain NO watermarks of text overlays

·         be in JPG format

·         be correctly labeled with group, name and sequence (see label format below)

Image Label/Name
Before sending images, each file must be labeled using the following format.
C_LName_F_seqnbr.jpg
where:
C              is the color category (R, O, Y, G, B, I, V)
LName    is the photographers last name
F               is the photographers first initial
seqnbr    is whatever numbering scheme you want to use
                 each component of the name should be separated with an underscore ( _  )
Example:
An image from Doug Hackett in the green category would be labeled   G_Hackett_D_1579.jpg

Submitting images
When you are ready to submit images please email SVPC@shaw.ca with the number of images you are ready to transfer.  You will be sent instructions on how to transfer the images as well as a transfer date.
Transfers will take place using an online tool called DROPBOX.  This tool works on both Macs and PCs.  It appears as a file folder on your computer so you can just drag and drop your photos into the folder and they will automatically be transferred.

Is this my only opportunity to submit photos?
No, there will be additional opportunities but we need to start to assess any categories that are weak or have too few images.

I have a friend who might would like to participate as well.  Can I send them this info?
By all means, they will need to join the photo club before they submit images but that is the only limitation.

How will I be recognized?
Every photographer whose images are selected will have their name in the program and in the credits.  They will also have an opportunity to display in the gallery show associated with the project
 
Am I giving up my rights to my images?
No, absolutely not! Photographers will retain the rights to their own images – you are giving permission for your images to be used for this specific performance.
I have more questions
Send any questions, thoughts, concerns to Doug Hackett   ( SVPC@shaw.ca )

* Pro'ject Sound

Pro’ject Sound (as in pro’jector)  We have an opportunity to be part of a very unique production in collaboration with the Howe Sound Performing Arts Association.    The presentation will combine the pianist Sarah Hagen playing live with a continuous stream of appropriate photographs that will be coming from local photographers (that’s our part).
After an initial meeting we decided to go with the COLOUR theme which features the colours of the rainbow. Sarah likes to begin with violet and end with RED!  (violet-indigo-blue-green-yellow-orange-red)
The MUSIC will be Claude Debussy and the concert will run approximately 45 minutes.
