CATEGORIES

Print Single Page (PSP) –  A single printed page from a publication containing any type of photography (news, sports, feature, etc.) Each entry should showcase excellent use of photography, design and picture editing. Entry can be a page with multiple unrelated stories or an entry with one story.

Print Multiple Page (PMP) – Multiple printed pages from a publication containing any type of photography (news, sports, feature, etc.) Each entry should showcase excellent use of photography, design and picture editing. Entry should be primarily from one story over a series of pages.

Online Photo Gallery (OPG) – Entries in this category will be judged on the sequencing, selection, order and storytelling through the edit of an online image gallery. Entries can be galleries that stand alone, exist with written stories or are part of larger online presentations, but in this category, only the photo gallery will be judged based on its merits from a picture editing standpoint.

Digital Single Story (DSS) – Entries in this category can be of news, feature, sports or other types of photographic coverage. Each entry should be a single topic or story presented on a digital platform. Entries can be website pages of a single topic or a single story coverage which will be judged based on their selection of images, use of multimedia including video and visual innovation in storytelling. Videos and other multimedia on the site will be considered in the judging but only as components of the whole presentation and edit.
