Free Spirit of Ramey Calendar Contest
Contest ends May 15, 2010
About the contest
Most reunions have T-shirts but in the inspiration of The Free-Spirit of Ramey Reunion, we want to offer something a little more memorable with a whole lot of fun. The 2011 reunion in Puerto Rico will feature a special calendar of Rameyites. The calendars will be a “nude” (as in, not actually nude, but creatively akin to it) calendar, a very sensuous yet tastefully presented. There will be 2 calendars offered: 1) A 12 month “Ramey Bombshell Calendar” (women) and 2) A 12 month “Ramey Bombers Beefcake Calendar” (guys). The sale of the calendars will be used as a fundraiser, to assist in offsetting a portion of the cost of the reunion, as well as a great Rameyite souvenir keepsake. With this in mind, we are looking for volunteers (both women and men) for our special calendars. Any Rameyite may submit an entry for the calendars, and we encourage you to do so.
All volunteers will be responsible for deciding their theme, photographic settings/backgrounds, attire, props and poses. The volunteers will also be responsible to have their own photographer, as well as decide which photos to submit for entry.
All photo submittals will be sent to Robert Woods at email address: rwoods319@earthlink.net. All submittals will be held by Robert in private. Only a 3 person-judging panel and Robert will have access to your submittals, until publication of the calendars.
There will be 12 BombShell calendar winners and 12 BeefCake calendar winners, one winning image will be used for each month of each Ramey calendar. The calendars will be sold to the public to raise funds for the "Free Spirit of Ramey Reunion". Images will be selected through a contest, which ends May 15, 2010. To be considered, images must be of appropriate size/high-resolution quality/ 4 megapixels for printing at its LARGEST size of 11 inches wide by 8 inches high. It is the quality and impression of the finished photograph we are looking for, so be creative! The judges want to see photographs that are bright, well lit, clearly focused and not grainy. Composition of the photograph is essential -- boring "standing-against-a-tree-or-wall" shots are discouraged.
Be creative, have a lot of fun with the process and think about what kind of image you would like to see hanging on your wall for a whole year. Use fun props! Interesting locations! Interesting themes!
The final 2011 calendars will be available to buy for approximately $20 (plus any taxes, shipping and handling).
Good Luck and we cannot wait to see what you come up with!
