ViewSonic Kickoffs the ColorPro Award 2021 Global Photography Contest by Announcing This Year’s Theme, “New Adventure”
ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solutions, invited five creative industry leaders, Monogram Creative Console, Shoot The Frame, Capture One, Getty Images, and iStock to jointly hold the annual ColorPro Award 2021 Global Photography Contest
From 14 August to 15 September, 2021, everyone is welcome to submit photos based on the theme for this year, “New Adventure.” Prizes include ViewSonic ColorPro VP2776 professional monitors, cash prizes, and a package of photography tools.
“The theme of last year’s contest, 'Kindness’, brought hope to people during the pandemic. This year, the future remains uncertain, we hope to remind people that venturing into the unknown can lead to new adventures,” said Oscar Lin, Head of the Monitor Business Unit at ViewSonic. “We are glad to once again host this global contest with our partners to form a community for all creators to exchange artistic ideas, and provide a platform for creators to showcase their aspects of what ‘New Adventure’ means to them.”
The ColorPro Award not only seeks to encourage people to express themselves through art but engaging with other creators can demonstrate how artwork can make a difference to the world. To further assist creators in evolving their creative process, prizes made available by ViewSonic and its partners for exceptional submissions include ViewSonic ColorPro VP2776 professional monitors, cash prizes, and professional photography tools. The tools comprise of Monogram Creative Consoles and Capture One Licenses, which improve the efficiency of artwork editing and Shoot The Frame Premium Memberships, allowing photographers to submit imagery into their monthly photo awards.
ViewSonic also invited three renowned professional photographers to share inspiring photographs of this year’s theme, “New Adventure”. Dan Rubin’s photo shows a narrow pathway on a ridge leading into a misty mountain, expressing anticipation and discoveries. In Luke Stackpoole’s photo, a girl, embodying the spirit of adventure, walks toward the sea on a beach in Sochi, Russia. And Paola M Franqui’s photo captures a woman who goes horse riding early on a quiet and misty morning in Bend, Oregon, embarking on a voyage of gratitude.
All submitted photographs will be evaluated based on three main criteria: (1) Overall impression conveyed, and emotion delivered; (2) Originality, creativity, and storytelling; (3) Technical aspects, such as lighting, exposure, colour, tone, and execution.
