January Show!

I just got word that we can have a SCAD photo show at the Defoor Centre in January. I have an email address we can submit work to, I will try to find out how much space we have to work with. How do we want to do it? Give everyone a little space or all submit and have them jury it? Any thoughts? Peace,

Kyle

P.S. Happy Birthday Carla!

UPDATE now available.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving

Found this photo on Lee’s myspace page. When did we shoot it? Looks pretty exciting.

December First Friday

Even though school is out, a few of us are still going to be in town during the break. And although I’m one of the few, we will be out of town for the December First Friday (Dec. 1). Dave and Professor Elizabeth Turk will be going, so if anyone else is around, get in touch with them or me and we’ll get you set up.

New Design

As you can hopefully tell, the Photo Awesome Club web site has finally been designed. Hopefully you like it.

A few requests:

  • Please limit image widths to no more than 400 pixels wide when embedding a photo. The design breaks otherwise.
  • Please send me (Walker) a single photograph of yours for use as a header image (the image up top should rotate). Keep in mind that there must be a place for the text. I need a file roughly 1000px wide in highest quality jpg mode… that is, unless you have the perfect cropping (600px wide by 300px are the dimensions, if you’re wondering) and don’t want to relenquish control.
  • To reiterate, yes, you can upload images to this site. Please be reasonable with your file sizes, and if you have an image that just has to be posted big, upload the big file, and then upload a smaller thumbnail as a link to it from the page.
  • If any of this is confusing, ask me for help.

Thanks for contributing!

Photo Forum: 27th Annual College Photo Contest

The deadline for the 27th Annual College Photography Contest from Photographer’s Forum Magazine is noted as November 14, 2006 on their web site. However, the actual entry form (PDF) says entries are due no later than November 24, 2006.

Hey, Hot Shot!

Hey, Hot Shot! is a competition at Jen Bekman, a New York photography gallery. Deadline for entries is Tuesday, November 14, 2006 at 6pm EST.

Texas Photographic Society: 22nd MOS

I know the Texas Photographic Society’s 22nd Annual Members Only Show sounds like a regional competition, and it is. But the membership of TPS is pretty large and includes people from all over the country and world (currently 1324 members from 48 states and 12 countries). The prizes aren’t awful either. The images from last year are posted online. The deadline for entries is November 20, 2006 and the juror is Photographer Kathy Vargas.

Open Studio Night

This is obviously after the fact, but SCAD-Atlanta held Open Studio Night on the 5th floor this past Thursday night, November 9th from 7-9pm. Hundreds of people attended and it was a lot of fun. Hopefully someone will post some photos soon, but for now, I’ll just post card all of the guests received as they entered the building.

Theta is In

Theta is In

If you see Travis with a cart full of stuff that looks like it came from the Hubble Space telescope, don’t worry he’s not robbing NASA, he’s just assembling the Theta machine.

Possible May Show

Hey Everybody,

I have located a place where we can probably have a SCAD photo show in May. It is at the Defoor Centre, just off of Howell Mills on Defoor road. Tim, the director of promotions said he would love to do a show of just SCAD students. It’s a little ways off obviously, but something to start thinking about.

CastleBerry Hill ArtStroll 11/03/2006

The Castleberry Hill ArtStroll is tomorrow (Friday) night, November 3rd, from 7-10pm. Based on previous experience, I think everyone who is interested should carpool and arrive early, as parking was a major issue for me last time.

So, the plan: Meet at the entrance level of the parking garage at the SCAD-Atlanta main building at 6:30pm. Call me with questions: (512) 576-7460

Also, following the ArtStroll, we can eat food.
