WE FUND CREATIVE PROJECTS

To promote creativity, we are pleased to contribute to creative photography projects with promising concepts. Submissions are open at all times, however we fund only one project per month. We also propose concepts from time to time, for project we wish to publish in our magazine.

Submission details:

  • Submissions must be still photography projects primarily, involving consenting human subjects, in one of the following genre: portrait, art, abstract, fashion, art nude or art erotica. Categorically, we do not accept glamour photography, lifestyle / stock type photos, casual portraits, etc. Artistic merit and creative talent is determined at our discretion, and are a must for concepts and executions.

  • We do not accept video-only concepts. Behind the scene or accompanying video footage however, is encouraged and accepted.

  • All aspects of the creative should be determined at the time of submission, this includes a description of locations, concept, models, photographers, wardrobe / looks, technical considerations, etc. with links to any applicable actual location photos, model portfolios, photographer portfolios, etc.

  • We do not accept ‘inspo’ photos in place of proper concept descriptions. We do not accept recreation of existing photography works as a concept submission. Elaborate textual descriptions, accompanied by mood boards or visuals to better describe the vision, if needed.

  • We have specific technical requirements for the resulting photos, in terms of resolution and quality of work. These must be met for qualification, even after approval of the submission. We do accept digital creations, film creations, as well as instant film works, as well as any unconventional capture methods, as long as the final works are digitized optimally for viewing and publication.

  • We require non-exclusive rights to the outcome of your project, meaning we may publish / use it in various media without limitations, as can you.

  • We currently fund up to CA$1,000 per project. This may increase in the future. Funds are given to the principal, who submitted the project. Funds are released only after execution of the project according to the approved submission, meaning you will have to fund it on your own and you will be reimbursed after.
