NoBS Inferno Print Competition
Inferno Print Competition - 2009 Think, Conspire, Strive to Win!
This will be an 8x10 competition. No digital files. This is a print competition. Competition mounted. Print quality will be taken into consideration as part of the score. No logos or identifying marks on the front of the image. Maximum 3 images per person/studio.
Image must be shot within the past year. Image cannot already have won in any major competition. We will be tentatively judging on Monday night. Closed panel. We will find someone to video tape portions of the judging.
We will not be held responsible for missing or late prints.
Categories: Babies and Children Seniors Wedding Group Individual Wild Card - (Have an image and you aren't sure where it goes? Add it here and take a chance.)
*We reserve the right to merge categories if the participation is low in any category.
Images will be judged on their own merit. Placing them in categories will help expedite finalists and winning prints.
NoBS Shootout
Tuesday night is the shootout at 7:00pm sharp...
Here is how it will go down...
We will have 6 photographers and 6 retouchers.
EVERYONE that is participating will be introduced and then escorted into the hallway to wait their turn. One by one and completely random - the photographer will enter the room to find a backdrop, lights, a model and a prop. The shooter will have 5 minutes to get their shot - they MUST have the model and the prop SHOWING in the final image. After they are done shooting they go back into the hallway to wait until everyone is done.
Once everyone is done shooting - at random Alison will take the card and pair it (at random) with a retoucher. Retouchers will enter the room - set up the computer (and make sure they are up to date with the shooters camera (brian) ) and begin retouching. They will have 15 minutes to download and retouch the image. At the end of the 15 minutes we will take the final image and display them on the screen. Alison will hand out ballots so you can vote on the winner. You will have until 11:00 pm to vote and Alison will announce it at the fun night that is immediately after the shootout at 9:00pm in the Pink Slip lounge.
Inferno Halloween Fun Night
9pm Tuesday - in the Pink Slip Lounge, we are having a HALLOWEEN PARTY!! Since most of us are missing Halloween we are going to have our own Halloween party!
