⭐ IMPORTANT info ⭐
Please no flash during any performances.
Please be mindful of how you might distract the audience. If a show is quiet and contemplative and you think your shutter sound might annoy someone, just don’t take photos. It’s fine! Shoot video if you like, or just enjoy the show.
I really just need 3-5 good photos of each performer/group, but more is great! We’ll be using them on the website, and I will send them to artists to use however they like. (Part of Fringe’s mission is artist development, and we all know how far a few great photos can get you!)
I’ll be sending you a Dropbox link for uploading your photos. Or you can send them to me however works for you.
Please submit jpgs that are at least 1600px wide. Minimal watermarks are perfectly fine. If the artist would like to buy high-res, unmarked versions, they may contact you, and y’all can work out pricing. If you feel like shooting short video clips, that’s cool too! I make GIFs and slideshows, so video is useful.
Please have the photos ready by 2-3 weeks after the shows.
I’ll be sending your photos to all the artists, and will pass along your info for crediting purposes.
you may also vote for Fringiest of the Fringe and Fringe Fan Favorite!
