Arty Competitions

duckula · 09-07-2004, 01:18 AM

What are peoples thoughts on having art competitions in the gallery. Different sections like; video, photography, non photographic image, writing and so on.
Then have voting once a shortlist had been selected.

As an artistically untalented person I shouldn't really comment be I do feel like this is a very good idea. What better way to promote KKW as a grouping of sophisticated intellectuals than to show off our members artistic qualities?

Quick, do it while Baz isnt here.

Seems like a cool idea. I suck at anything to do with artistics.

Whatever happened to this? There seems to be quite a lot of photoshopping and picture taking going around this board - a contest of sorts might be fun. (Do I get the 'biggest bump' award?)

*Hands you a shiny plaque*

I think it's an excellent idea, I'm always photoshoppin'.

Leonie · 03-05-2006, 10:12 PM

With the pictures, we could pick like... a monthly topic, then get that shortlist out of the entries, and vote. Same goes for the photoshopping really.

Mandy · 03-05-2006, 10:15 PM

Yeah, but depends on how many people would do it. So far it'd be me against you each time. haha

I think it's a really cool idea. I mean I would give a shot at writing and definitly draw some stuff.

hasselbrad · 04-05-2006, 01:22 PM

I finally have the ability to scan stuff, so I could be arsed to particpate.

Leonie · 04-05-2006, 01:28 PM

Now all we need is someone to take charge and set a topic

I'm not going to volunteer as I have nothing but my own personal taste to judge other people's work. We'd need someone to create a shortlist, after which a poll could be made in which people vote for their favourite piece of art.

Would anyone be interested?

Mandy · 04-05-2006, 02:27 PM

I'll do it.

Should there be both competitions going at the same time? I dont take a whole lot of pictures, so If I'm participating it's most likely going to be in the photoshop business.

Swordsman · 05-05-2006, 02:16 AM

By photoshop to you mean literally to combine and make pictures or just take cool photos? I just sort of take arty light pictures.

Mandy · 05-05-2006, 02:31 AM

Photoshopping as in like as in doing cool things in photoshop with set topics like "Turn Keira into a superhero," "Turn Keira into someone with breasts"...etc.
