We love receiving all of your celebrity photos from movie and TV sets and wanted to say thank you for all of the long hours spent waiting outside of trailers and trekking from set to set by launching a new monthly photography contest!
Beginning tomorrow, September 1, 2011, everyone who sends us their fan photos of movie and TV sets will be eligible to win an HP Touchpad! And, if September’s contest is a success, we will continue doing monthly contests, with even bigger and better prizes!
Here are a few examples of what we think makes a great photo:
A clear photo of a celebrity on a TV or Movie set.
A unique photo (Is the celeb in a unique costume, playing with their pet between takes, or joining the crew in an impromptu game of basketball? Anything out of the ordinary always makes a great pic.)
A good shot of an actor or actors filming a scene (especially one that includes a few good spoilers!)
Of course, we always love to see cool photos of fans with celebs too.
And, if you’re really ambitious, it would be awesome to incorporate OLV into the photo (have the celeb hold up a homemade OLV sign, or reading OLV on an iPhone, etc), we’d love to see how creative you can get!
Here are the rules:
Photos must be exclusive to OLV.
Photos must be taken within the month of September 2011.
Photos must be emailed to us at olv@onlocationvacations.com with the subject line “OLV Celeb Photo Contest”. You will also need to include your name and contact information (email address, mailing address, and phone number). You can still send us the photo via Twitter or post it on our Facebook page, but you must also email the photo to us by October 1, 2011 to be eligible. Also please include a description of what the photo is, where it was taken, and the date it was taken.
You can enter as many photos as you like, there is no limit on the number of submissions.
You must read our terms and conditions which can be viewed under the “Contact”/”Send Us Pics” tab above.
You must be 18 or have a parent’s permission to enter the contest.
Though photos with watermarks will still be included, we would prefer non-watermarked photos for this contest.
Online entries can be uploaded starting 12:01 am Eastern Standard Time on September 2, 2011. Deadline for submitting entries is 11:59 pm Pacific Standard Time on October 1, 2011.
And though it is not a requirement to be eligible, we would prefer the photos be sized 550px on the longest side.
We will post our favorite photos throughout the month of September. Then, on October 5, 2011, we’ll open the voting up to our readers who will have 5 days to vote for their favorite (of the photos we’ve posted). There will be another post with voting rules, etc posted on Oct. 5. The photographer whose photo receives the most votes by Oct. 10, 2011 will win a 16GB HP Touchpad! You can read all about it here. The winner will be announced by Oct. 15.
Good luck! If you have any questions, you can contact us at olv@onlocationvacations.com!
