Canon Photo Contest

Canon USA has announced a contest for students ages 13-18 and adults 18+ looking for photos of youth football from the 2008 season. The two Grand prize winners receive a trip to the 2009 Super Bowl, a trip to the Pro Football Hall of Fame and a Canon digital camera kit.

Full rules can be found at http://www.qdorfny2.com/canon/nfl/08/site/rules.asp. Other details, including how to submit the digital images , can be found at http://www.usa.canon.com/app/html/NFL/ (click on Amateur Photo Contest in the menu at the top.)

The entry deadline is December 3, 2009 and students can submit up to 10 entries.

The photographer retains copyright to the images, but does allow Canon and the NFL to use the image for promotional purposes.

What a difference a day makes!

Thank you to all who made it to our Design Workshop with HJ Special Consultant Paul Ender yesterday and today. The new format of projecting your files so we could make real-time changes worked incredibly well because you all came prepared and ready to dive in. Isn’t amazing what a difference it makes to have an entire day to focus on designs with the expert help of a yearbook guru? We’re already making plans to have Paul return next October, so mark your calendars now.
