MonKey Vision Song Contest 2009 - fun photo competition
|
i mentioned this to a few people at the 080808 meet
Monkey Kettle (local arts group) have this crazy idea ....bands from different areas of MK, each bringing a nominated judge, competing against each other and voting Eurovision style...plan is to stage it March 2009
if you or anyone you know might be interested in going or competing i'll post the details as soon as we have them
meanwhile we're looking to get some promotional artwork together
so...
we are cordially inviting MKF to enter a photo/caption competition
as the event is designed to help advertise a community project, there are no prizes…it’s just for fun
Monkey Vision Song Contest – competition rules
1. All entries to consist of content made up of two criteria: a photograph which in the opinion of the photographer epitomises the spirit of Milton Keynes, and a caption which helps to promote the event Monkey Vision Song Contest 2009 or entices the intended audience to want to know more about the Monkey Vision Song Contest 2009
2. All entries are based wholly on original material
3. Entries can be received as the work of more than one person.
...so if you have a pic with no caption or idea of a caption but no photo you can post it here and see if another flickrite can team up
4. Entries are submitted on the understanding that winners will be publicising Monkey Vision Song Contest 2009. As such the competition organisers are granted the right to adapt, crop, modify or otherwise alter the work in return for the appropriate credit, prominently displayed on the work.
here's an example...

thanks coolkitten
another photo/caption idea we used for our meeting but couldn't reproduce due to copyright; Neil Wykes concrete cow photo www.flickr.com/photos/neilwykes/51182658/in/set-1109798/
with the wording
main cow: "where ya goin?..."
background cow: "…off to vote for Bancroft mate"

Sounds great I'm trying to find some live music in MK, not just to photograph - just to watch, but can't find any!?!

Monkey Kettle met recently to further discuss
plans for the Monkey Vision Song Contest
we'd love pull together some promo material
so we can get some "teasers" out there
if anybody's got ideas please post here
even if you only have photos you don't mind us using;
if you can provide some iconic images of MK, our team of writers can do the captions
thanks all

I appreciate money is tight so theres no prize, but how about if all of the pictures you use inlude wither the name of the photographer of his/her url as a reward? ie Picture supplied by www.richard.simplysnaps.com or Picture supplied by www.newport-pagnell.co.uk might increase the number of submissions
