Requirements

This is an analogue only photography call: only work shot on film in any format or using other analogue media/processes is accepted. Submissions captured digitally will be disqualified without notice. Scanned and post-edited negatives/originals using image editing softwares such as Photoshop remain eligible to be entered.

Awards

* 2-month solo exhibition (May-July, 2019)
* Invitation to Danny Lyon's May, 2019 Master Workshop with $500 traveling stipend
* Global online and in print exposure through multiple interview and exhibition publications
* Inclusion in the FotoFilmic SOLO collection both in store & online
* FotoFilmic REP (1-year trial)

Considerations

The SOLO VI call is capped to 100 applications: photographers are therefore encouraged to apply early in order to have their work considered. The Solo VI call may close earlier than the October 3 deadline once 100 valid applications are received.

Evaluation Criteria

With 50+ years of photography & filmmaking experience under his belt, Danny expects to encounter a wide variety of works and genres as juror: don't be deterred to apply if your projects/ series aren't focused on street & documentary photography. As always the real challenge will reside in quality of execution, innovative envisioning and above all risk-taking as a photographer. Remember work submitted if picked will be exhibited and will thus represent you & your photography out there. You may enter selections/editions of different bodies of work, but try keeping your overall vocabulary as coherent & tight as possible.
