Per i vincitori, visibilità internazionale e possibilità di aggiudicarsi importanti riconoscimenti

I Sony World Photography Awards, ormai giunti all’11^a edizione, celebrano la fotografia contemporanea con i migliori scatti degli ultimi 12 mesi. È possibile partecipare gratuitamente a tutti i concorsi – Professionisti, Open, Giovani, Student Focus e National Award – attraverso il sito www.worldphoto.org/swpa.

Ogni anno, a finalisti e vincitori delle varie categorie viene data visibilità e notorietà a livello internazionale, oltre a premi in denaro, attrezzature fotografiche digitali di Sony di ultima generazione, nonché la possibilità di promuovere e vendere le proprie opere tramite la World Photography Organisation.

Inoltre, per la prima volta a partire da questa edizione, i fotografi premiati potranno aggiudicarsi dei riconoscimenti da parte di Sony per il finanziamento di futuri progetti fotografici. Per alcuni tra i vincitori del concorso Professionisti sono previsti premi in denaro da 7.000$ (USD), mentre una selezione di finalisti del concorso Student Focus riceverà 3.500$ (USD) per lavorare insieme a un nuovo progetto fotografico commissionato da Sony e dalla World Photography Organisation.

Ecco i consigli dei giudici dell’edizione 2018 ai partecipanti:

“Scegliete con attenzione le vostre storie, pensate a come si inseriscono nel vostro sistema di valori. Fate ricerche sul tema e su eventuali altri lavori pertinenti, quindi iniziate a scattare. Siate spietati nell’editing e nel controllo qualità e cercate una forma di coerenza nella presentazione delle immagini. Infine, chiedete sempre l’opinione di chi vi sta intorno: il loro punto di vista non corrisponde necessariamente al vostro, e vi aiuterà a capire se il vostro lavoro funziona o no con una maggiore obiettività.” Mike Trow, presidente, concorso Professionisti

“Mandateci un lavoro in cui credete e che pensate possa essere apprezzato e sostenuto anche da noi.” Sue Davies OBE, giurata, concorso Professionisti

“Per me la cosa più importante è che ciascun fotografo faccia sentire la propria voce, facendo emergere le sue qualità individuali e la sua personalità. In ultima analisi, questo significa trovare un tema/un soggetto in cui si crede fermamente e che si ha davvero a cuore.” Dewi Lewis, giurato, concorso Professional

“Non copiate (troppo) lo stile altrui.” Gareth Harris, giurato, concorso Professionisti

“Siate sinceri, pensate al messaggio che il vostro lavoro comunica, privilegiate la semplicità e lasciate parlare il cuore.” Zelda Cheatle, presidente, concorsi Open, Giovani e National Award
