IDEA for the IA Calender (Not Rens) ** Please Read*
I thought about this idea and I think itll work.
Here is the idea:
Everyone goes and takes shots of their own car ( under a specified resolution stated by whomever is getting it created and anything less is inadmissable). This means you take your own car, do your own personal photoshoot, with your own camera or the help of someone else. Once you get the pictures you like, have them submitted to Paul or someone else that is in charge for the final decision on the top 25-30 shots. Then have Paul pick out the top 25-30 shots he likes and post them in a main thread where people vote on the desired numbers they like. After polling is over the Top 12 are placed in the Calender in no particular order.
The reason why I think this idea is perfect:
- It cuts down on drama and provides an unbiased decision making process for who reps IA in the Calender. It not only pleases the makers of this site, which have the ultimate decision making power, plus it pleases the members by providing a voting system.
- It cuts down on having to schedule a meeting time for photoshoots. Everyone takes pics on their own time and their place that they desire.
- It gives everyone the oppurtunity to submit something, whether you are well known on IA or not. Who knows, there might be a diamond in the rough on this forum (no dsm pun intended)
-It saves time! The calender can be produced quicker with less hoops to jump through to get the project done.
-IT gives people a perspective on what to expect in the calender rather than purchasing blindly and getting disspointed when opening it up.
So what do you all think? Hell even the top photgraphers here on the site can volunteer their own time to help other members that dont have nice equipment!
