Sobre o Prêmio de Fotografia
Last year, Booooooom hosted their first-ever Photo Awards. The competition saw the highest number of submissions of any prior call on Booooooom, garnering wide international attention. The awards exist to propel the winners toward successful careers in their chosen field. You can view the winners and shortlisted submissions from last year’s awards aqui.
Aqui no Format, reconhecemos a importância de criar espaços e oportunidades para celebrar os profissionais criativos e seu trabalho. Estamos empenhados em ajudar os criativos a crescer e atingir seu potencial máximo e mal podemos esperar para ver o que está reservado para o Photo Awards deste ano!
Categorias de prêmios
This international competition will grant awards to photographers in five categories:
PORTRAIT — Human subjects are the focus here.
NATURE — Images related to land, sea, sky, and the natural world.
STREET — Street photography is generally understood to be candid unposed moments of everyday life in public spaces. Images may be spontaneous and chaotic or they may be more quiet observations.
COLOR — Images may feature one color or an explosion of many. Or maybe they capture a few that feel in perfect harmony with one another. How can you make the viewer notice the color first?
SHADOWS — Silhouettes and dark shapes. Change your focus from the things that cast the shadows to the shadows themselves.
Each category winner will be awarded a $1,000 USD cash prize, editorial and social coverage, and a feature in Booooooom’s print publication. Format is offering 3 lifetime subscriptions to contest participants.
Winners and shortlisted photographers will also receive a special mini printed zine of all winning and shortlisted work. This publication will not be for sale, but will be sent to curators and editors of Booooooom’s choosing. Don’t miss out—this is your chance to get your work seen!
