August's Photo Contest Winners!!
"Congratulations to Isabella Dake and Brian Wisenbaker"
Children In Film Photo Contest Tip of the Month: When you are first starting out and shopping for representation, it is perfectly acceptable to take your own photos. Today, even the camera on your cell phone can create a great shot, but don't be tempted to use the fancy "film" filters. Although unnatural tones, lighting and effects are fun for Facebook, they are distracting and considered unprofessional by the trained eye. It is best to keep things simple - natural lighting and well-framed shots free of distractions.
Isabella and Brian will each receive a FREE ENHANCED membership on ChildrenInFilm.com until they turn 18 and will be featured on our website and newsletters. Plus, Bunker LA is providing this month's winners with 50 free prints of their winning headshots. 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:
