180 Photo Contest
Project Title: Southeast Raleigh 180 Photo Contest
Status (facilitator will change): DRAFT FORM, PROPOSAL- Waiting for approval, APPROVED- Seeking committee members, APPROVED- Committee in progress, RETURNED FOR REVISION, NOT APPROVED
Project Manager: : Collin Shaw
Committee Members: Roger, Michaela, CJ, Dana, Kevin, Richard, and Cee Cee.
Anyone else interested in joining needs to contact Collin or Mrs. Harrell by Tuesday 4/7 so we can delegate responsibilities.
Project Description:
The Photo Contest is a school-wide project we have been brainstorming since the Leadership Snapshot on the first day of 180. The committee is designed to get everyone active and anyone willing to participate can enter the contest or serve on the committee to organize it. Any students willing to join the contest may submit a picture of some sort of act of leadership. They will enter their photo and we will tally the voting and the top one(s) will be the winner(s). The photos will be judged by either judges or an online voting process. Also, there still stands the idea of having 180 members involved in the contest and every month have another one, putting the winner on the homepage for a month or involve it in the handbook (the ideas listed from the other forum about the photo contest.) Give your views and opinions! Feedback is greatly appreciated. :]
There is a need for photos for the next 180 handbook, yearbook, magnet recruitment, and photos to show here at SRMHS in offices. A photo contest could generate lots of photos that we could use in a variety of ways.
Mrs. Harrell had the idea of collaborating with the Digital Arts CFLC for a photo contest like one she did a few years ago. There is another thread about discussing the entry form and the idea of having one every month, and I really like that idea. If you have any follow up suggestions for that, please comment below. I am trying to make this a committee, and it is still in progress, so read ahead and give feed back to any ideas you have about it or if you have any suggestions, comments, criticism, please post a reply or come talk to me or Mrs. Harrell or one of the other facilitators about them. We also need ideas for dates or times to start the contest, and finish it and judge.
This project will serve a school wide activity that anyone can participate in and can be used for many different purposes. This can connect with the school by anyone willing to enter the contest can, and it can benefit anyone. The school also gets a benefit because we can use it in the great hall for showing school spirit (another committee), or the idea in the second discussion thread for having multiples contests every months and showing them off on this site. =]
Draft of Entry Requirements-
We have been discussing on putting in clubs to the contest, the club can submit photos and enter them into the voting. Since we have not fully decided how to involve them, we may either have it one picture per club (each club picks the favorite out of all their pictures and it is added to the voting) or have it one picture per member of the club (every member is allowed to enter one picture into the voting.) Also, should we have two separate contests? (One for clubs and one for students) The voting needs to be discussed and decided on how many one person can enter for the contest, and whether or not they need to submit an entry form to be apart of the voting. How can this be combined with what 1st period is already doing? Is there a proposal in the works? Could this be the proposal for both?
As you can see, this is still a work in progress, but I really want to make this contest work so please add any ideas or suggestions you have for this committee so that we can really get this up and going. It would be greatly appreciated, thanks! =]
Resources Needed: ¨
Number of team members: ¨ There are 3 in 4th period who are already interested in this but we need more to make it successful. Possibly , 5-10 total members.
Any specific skill sets needed on the team? ¨ Photo experience, photo editing, marketing, possibly generating prizes, matting and framing photos, someone good at organizing files.
Meeting space and equipment: We need lots of photo and digital equipment which the Digital Arts CFLC is providing.
Supplies list:
The requirements are not very much, I would prefer if you had some sort of experience with cameras, but it is not required. We may need to have an after school meeting, or use smart lunch as an advantage and just talk about it once a week, or however much time we need to discuss the ideas (dates, ideas for the contest, etc.). As I said above, the Digital Arts CFLC is providing most of the equipment.
Project Timeline/Calendar: See the Photo Contest Calendar for more details.

I've uploaded the powerpoint to http://180degrees.wetpaint.com/page/Photo+Contest+Calendar and deleted the page Roger created for it. Please review this powerpoint and share with folks to encourage participation. Roger and Collin are presenting it to Mrs. Aker's classes today and I am on Monday. Entry forms will be posted this afternoon along with the flier Dana created. What else do we need to do to promote this contest since we only have 2 weeks for it?

I've approved the photo contest so the committee can proceed but they still need everyone's feeback about the entry requirements and timeline. Please take 2 minutes to respond to any or all of the following questions:
Do you think the limit should be 1 picture per person per club? What about if they aren't in a club but they take a photo of an abstract image like the leadership snapshots or someone volunteering for their grad project? Should we describe what is school appropriate? Does this refer to offensive subject matter that wouldn't be appropriate to dsplay somewhere? Do you think 3 e-mail addresses would be the best way to collect entries? Could you set up another e-mail account to check at school that the entire committee could check? Does anyone know of any e-mail we can use for that other than the Wake County e-mail? Should we discuss what kind of resolution the image would need? March 2nd seems very early to start advertising when you haven't quite worked out all the kinks for this yet. Also, do you think that advertising before spring break is the best idea? We need both 180 teams to give this group some feedback since they are planning to start advertising soon. |
