January's Photo Contest Winners!!
"Congratulations to Ravi Smith and Ally Scanlan"
Children In Film Photo Contest Tip of the Month: Appropriate patterns - Have you ever heard that patterns "jump" on camera? It definitely happens which is why you want to be very careful in choosing your patterns, plaids and prints. Ravi's photo (featured above) accomplishes the plaid quite well because it is not the focus of the picture, nor do we see a large portion of his shirt. When all else fails, choose a solid that compliments skin tone, eye color and hair.
Ravi and Ally will each receive a FREE ENHANCED membership on ChildrenInFilm.com until they turn 18 and will be featured on our website and newsletters. Congratulations to both of you! And congratulations to everyone who submitted - it is getting more and more difficult to choose winners as many of you have excellent headshots; keep up the good work!!
The CIF Photo Contest is designed so that we may show you what great pictures look like, and so that you may learn from these examples. Plus, it gives our members a chance to have their excellent photos featured on the site.
How can your child become the next winner? Be sure to follow these tips:
Basic Members: Remember, everyone is eligible to participate in the photo contest, but you won't be considered if we don't have a picture of you. The best way to participate is to upload an image into your profile as soon as you create your account.
New Photos: If you've been a member for a while (basic or enhanced) and want to make sure your newest photo is being considered, send a JPEG (we recommend something around 400x600 pixels) to us at contest@childreninfilm.com
Photo Tips: The CIF Kidstart Program has lots of great tips on taking good photos. Or, you can view the former contest winners for samples of winning photos.
