Slide Evaluation Rules and Regulations

Rules and Regulations 2007

  The slide Evaluation/Critique program for the Camera Club will consist of two major types of entries: a “Traditional Slide” Evaluation/Critique and a “Digital Slide” Evaluation/Critique. The Evaluations will be held seven (7) times a year with two (2) traditional and five (5) digital slide evaluations. The schedule and dates for each of the evaluations will be posted on the bulletin board and our website (lwcameraclub.com). The months will not necessarily alternate so check the schedule regularly.

  Traditional Slides

  For the “Traditional Slide” evaluations there will be two Divisions: One and Two. Members will be assigned to one of the divisions based on their previous year’s average score and the number of slides entered in that year. Division One will have the higher average scores. A list of the members for each division will be posted in the CH4 photo lab and will also be available at each evaluation.  For each Evaluation/Critique a member may enter three slides of any subject. The slides should not have been entered previously and all newly entered slides must be materially different from previous entries such that a casual observer would recognize it as being entirely different. If a slide receives a score of less than eight (8) it may be re-entered at any time in Divisions One or Two. At each Evaluation/Critique awards will be given for First, Second and Third place.

  At each “Traditional Slide” evaluation there will also be a separate Evaluation/Critique for a “Special Selected Subject” for the evening. Two slides may be entered into this Evaluation/Critique with no regard to membership in one of the divisions above. The Subjects will be announced and posted well in advance. Slides entered into this evaluation may not have been entered into any previous evaluation, regardless of score.  Awards of First, Second and Third will also be given with emphasis on matching the theme of the subject.

  In November there will be a Year End Slide Evaluation. Each member may enter up to four (4) slides that were entered in that year’s “Traditional Slide Evaluation Divisions One or Two.” A closed judging will be held on the third Saturday of November and First, Second and Third Place awards will be given at the Annual Holiday Dinner.
