Digital Jury Resources |
| |
|
Lately, I've been contacted by a number of artists for whom
the digital jury system hasn't been working. They may have been
consistently getting into shows when submitting slides, but have not done
well submitting digital images of their work. A number of these artists
have asked me to evaluate their ZAPP images. |
|
I have no problem evaluating images for artists, given that
they understand the limitations of my skills, experience and knowledge.
And don't hold me responsible for getting accepted into any art shows.
|
|
I will not critique the actual art work or give my opinion
on it. I don't feel comfortable being put in the situation of being a
juror. I will make suggestions on how to improve the photography of the
work so as to show it off more accurately to the jurors. |
| I'll view the images in a calibrated
system to see the color accurately and then test project them
using the same equipment as ZAPP uses. |
|
I will critique the images from a digital perspective and
point out ways that they can be improved in image editing programs like
Photoshop to more accurately represent the art work. |
|
Besides the quality of individual images, I can also make
suggestions about the presentation and relationship between images. I've
made that a major part of my seminars over the past year. |
| Contact me in advance, either by
e-mail or telephone
412-767-8644. Then send me one picture per e-mail. Make sure to
include your phone number in the first message so I can contact you to
discuss the images. I will not respond with evaluations by e-mail
because they need to be discussed verbally. All I ask in return is a
small
donation to my web site. |
