Winter Quarter Calls for Entries- January Post

Here is an edited list all students should consider for submission. Resume building and introducing your work to a wider audience is vital.

Dates listed are deadlines. Submitting early is recommended. 




01/22/2023

Same but Different The New York Center for Photographic Arts (NYC4PA) invites photographers world-wide to submit images using any photographic process (print, image transfer, emulsion transfer, encaustic, black and white, etc.).

For this call NYC4PA is challenging photographers to pair two photographs and submit them in diptych format (both images in one file). The images in each file will be “almost” the same but different enough to make each unique. You may have two versions of an image that you processed differently, or the same scene shot at different times of day. Have you taken two portraits of the same person with a feature or features that distinguish the images. The possibilities are endless and the room for interpretation and creativity equally vast.

2023 Krappy Kamera® Competition

What is a Krappy Kamera?
Our philosophy at Soho Photo Gallery is that in the hands of any artist great photographs can be made with basic equipment. To explore this talent, we are searching for extraordinary photographs made with lousy lenses. Examples of some Krappy Kameras are the Holga, Diana, Ansco, and pinhole cameras. You can also create your own Krappy Kamera by using your non-Krappy Kamera (e.g., 4×5, SLR, DSLR) and exchanging the lens with a Krappy lens (e.g., pinhole body cap or Holga-type lens). Cell phones, disposables and point and shoot cameras are ineligible. Remember, just because a camera is old and moldy doesn’t make it Krappy. The lens is the determining factor.

Submission
The competition is open to all photographers 18 years old and older, excluding members of Soho Photo Gallery. Use the link below to upload your digital entries and payment.

Awards
First Place $300, Second Place $200, and Third Place $100 will be awarded as well as three honorable mentions.

The Psychology of Night. For almost two centuries, night photography has captured the creative imagination. There is a long photographic tradition of capturing the scenes and moods of the night and low light. From the 19th century long exposures, to high-speed color films and digital technology, the subject of night has inspired many contemporary artists.

There is a certain psychology of the night. The night can be an incredibly suggestive time. Mystery, introspection, quiet or loud, and behaviors not abiding by the mainstream rules of the day, with the darkness useful for creating mystery or an unnerving atmosphere. Scenes we overlook during the day often take on a fascinating new appearance at night – in a literal or abstract way.

Urban street scenes, portraits, documentary, landscapes, conceptual, still life … All subjects, genres, capture types, color or black & white are welcome for submission.

Show us life at night, the night’s effect on the mind, the body, the nature or the city, as well as self-expression afforded in times when most are asleep.

Design for Good class with Habitat for Humanity and Restore this coming winter 2023

 

We're looking for 1-2 photography students, both undergraduate and graduate, for the following Design for Good class with Habitat for Humanity and Restore this coming winter 2023 quarter.  It will be a fun and meaningful project for students to be a part of and gain experience as they start their careers. 
The students can reach out to me directly via mnandigj@scad.edu.  
Thank you!
We're offering a Savannah-based on ground GOOD 560 course with Habitat for Humanity and ReStore this Winter 2023 Quarter!
 
GOOD 560 Design for Good 
Background
The multidisciplinary course, GOOD 560 Design for Good, directly supports the mission of SCAD SERVE, our community service design studio. Focusing on four critical areas of need — food, clothing, shelter, and environment — SCAD SERVE empowers the SCAD community to listen to the needs of its neighbors and local leaders, and create meaningful design solutions that improve quality of life. Volunteerism, public service, and social impact are and always have been an integral part of SCAD’s character. GOOD 560 Design for Good employs our students' collective brilliance through elevated, design-for-good solutions that make a difference in our hometowns of Atlanta and Savannah.  
Habitat for Humanity and ReStore  
Course Details

  • Section 01
  • Professor Munkhtsetseg Nandigjav, Chair of Digital Communication (DIGI)
  • Mondays/Wednesdays
  • 8:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.
  • Herstand, Room 401

Background 
Affordable housing is a national conversation, Coastal Empire Habitat for Humanity and ReStore bring solutions for affordable housing to the local community. Through a ReStore, donated home goods are resold and funds from the store help bring the possibility of homeownership to families throughout the Coastal Empire.  
Deliverables
The ReStore is an important source of income to help fund and fuel home-building projects in the community. Maximizing the sales from the store and community awareness of the ReStore will increase profits and increase funds for new home builds. Arranged inside a long-term lease of a former grocery store, the ReStore is set up in sections within a large space with limited directional signage or wayfinding and limited visuals along the shopping spaces. With the help of SCAD SERVE and GOOD 560 students and faculty, the development of a wayfinding and directional system for the ReStore in addition to creating and identifying appropriate visuals to adorn the walls and help convey the “Habitat for Humanity Story”, is anticipated that customers, clients, and community members will better utilize and understand the importance of their dollar by purchasing from the ReStore.
  • Wayfinding system to optimize the shopping experience through directional improvement and signage
  • Visuals to enhance the ReStore space to narrate the story of a shopper’s dollar and improve community awareness of shopping to help others
  • Scope out the intended use of the space and provide renderings, NOT for professional use
  • Determine the best use of interior and available space, as well as the most economical design decisions
  • Production of renderings, design features, and visual schematics to be used in grant proposals and donor relations 
Learning and Design Opportunities for Students 
Students will:
  • Create exciting and comprehensive documentation of current ReStore shopping systems and provide immediate, short-term, and long-term solutions to an ongoing community resource
  • Collaborate with political and industry professionals working on the issue of affordable housing locally, nationally, and internationally
  • Observe and document the shopping experience, the donation experience, and the volunteer experience of the ReStore and office spaces
  • Understand community building and the role of permanent residents to enhance it
  • Development of internal and external process and system enhancements with stakeholders
  • Gain real-world experience in local policy and industry volunteerism
Programs of Study Needed

  • Interior Design
  • Architectural History

Our mission is to discover the best talent, promote it and spread it, because we live and breathe photography, because we know the effort, the work and the passion behind each image, the need to find and capture beauty, to find a unique moment, to interpret the reality that surrounds us. Of the will that is needed to explain a story through a reportage, and to decipher the truth that is hidden in it.

For us, photography is light, life, emotion, communication, a challenge, but it is also a purely introspective act that forces us to question the way we see the world, our way of looking at reality, imbuing each photograph with a little bit of ourselves.

Our print edition has been designed as a promotional instrument, a tool to present your work to the world and give it the boost it needs. Exclusively professional in nature, it is distributed to leading galleries, agencies, festivals and industry professionals to ensure that your images are seen directly by the right people and in record time.

After 22 editions, our print edition has proven to be highly effective in promoting new photographic talent worldwide, and today, our print edition has become a leading magazine in the photography scene around the world.

Now is the time to focus in the right direction to get real results. All you have to do is select your best images and projects, register for the call for entries and upload your files using the registration form.
