    Amateur Photographer opens Inaugural Film Photographer of the Year competition for UK residents.

    The UK’s biggest-selling photography magazine is now taking free entries to their first analogue-centric competition, sponsored by Kodak, Analogue Wonderland, and Ricoh Imaging.

    Deadline: 5th January 2025, 11:59 pm GMT.

    Submission: 5 images shot on film in 2024 (some editing allowed).

    Prizes: the winner will get a brand new Pentax 17 film camera, a year’s supply of Kodak film (I’m curious to see what they consider a year’s supply, given that we all shoot at different rates), a year’s supply of film developing and scanning with the Analogue Wonderland lab, and a limited edition Pentax t-shirt and baseball cap. There will also be two runner-ups with smaller prizes.

    Submission form: photocrowd.com/photo-compe…

    Another chance to get free gear and film is great news for everyone in the UK.

    For everyone else, this can be read as a sign of the continuing growth of analogue photography’s popularity — an offline craft advanced by the extremely online generation of photographers. Film has been in resurgence for over a decade — almost immediately after crashing in the early 2020s — yet I don’t think its new popularity has peaked.

    What do you think?

    Call for Submissions: “What the Film?!”

    Help us build a game for film photographers.

    How well do you think you know your colour films? Can you guess if something was shot on Ektar, Portra, or Velvia?

    Daren (instagram.com/learnfilm.ph…), Yvonne (instagram.com/yvonne), and I are building a game that will test your knowledge of films. It’s based on the popular “What the Film?!” game (featured on PetaPixel and 35mmc). WTF?! was made for black-and-white film. The new one will focus on colour. 🌈

    We need you to help us build it:

    👉 Submit your colour film photos to analog.cafe/app/what-the-f…

    Once we have enough images, we’ll build the game. Your name and profile will be featured under each photo, and we may also feature you in the videos about the game. You will also get to play the game with a slight advantage and have your name listed in the Top 100 Rankings table!

    Play the black-and-white WTF?! game levels here: analog.cafe/app/what-the-f…

    See how well the community did guessing black-and-white films here: analog.cafe/r/photographer… (do you think we’ll do better with colour?)

    Thank you!!

    Magnum is collaborating with Polaroid to launch an open call for submissions on July 15, 2024.

    Magnum is a world-famous photography publishing brand that helped stars like Robert Capa realize their vision.

    In about five days, they’ll crack an opening for regular film-shooting folks like you and I apply to get on “the inside.”

    Magnum Open Call: site.picter.com/polaroid-m…

    Note! This isn’t an application to become a Magnum photographer. Polaroid × Magnum Open Call is your chance to win a Polaroid I-2 with 12 packs of Polaroid i-Type BW Film, an intro session with a Polaroid representative, and three online group critiques with Magnum-represented photographers.

    The submission is free. Sounds like a good deal.

    This open call is an application to get a Polaroid camera to shoot your proposed project on + 12 packs of film.

    You don’t need to submit a complete project. It’s a proposal; you can illustrate it with digital photos.

    I’ve been feeling exceptionally busy during the past few months so I’m not confident I can show my best effort on this application. But I encourage anyone reading to give it a try. Could be fun!
