2008 Holography Contest?
2008 Holography Contest?
OK, I learned a great deal from last years contest about the administration of the whole thing. However the question remains, is any interested in having a contest this year?
I don't think we have enough entries to make two catagories. Thoughts?

I think the last contest had 2 categories: 4X5" and under and anything above. It would be simpler to just drop the big category which is not easily available to amateurs anyway. I could, however see distinguishing between store bought and home-made films, since last year my lovely and powerful hologram made with BB-plates lost to Dave's glitzy and superficially attractive DCG image
But seriously last year there were way too few serious entries for a meaningful contest and unless we can raise the participation rate it's not worth doing.

yes I'm sure the the nice folks over at the holocenter would be happy to host a showing of forum/contest holograms.Theres couple of local "big wig" art holographers that would/could judge them as well if needed ............Danny Bee wrote:Dave is ther still a way to get the Holograms Displayed at the holo Center ther in NewYork i think that would be a great boost for holography, and get one of the juges to be Frank DeFreitas that would be so cool
one catch here is we need enough holograms to warrent a "showing".

I think we would need 15 entries. I will enter one. Whe else?

Count me in!
You should choose a theme for the contest. It would be fun to see everyone's artistic interpretations.
