Photographers

Photographers are always wanted for use in posters, marketing & promotional materials and postcard productions.

When you contribute a photo, you own the copy right but allow Cultural Compass to use the images for activities relating to cultural compass without charge or royalty.

You will be acknowledged for your contribution. For example, at the back of postcards, the name of photographer is mentioned. You can add your contact details or websites as well.

Photographers for postcards

All visitors get a set of postcards after the tour. The images are supplied by a photographer and production is sponsored by individuals. The process goes like this:

1) Cultural Compass and the photographer to choose a theme.

2) The photographer takes a series of photos revolving around the theme.

3) A collection of photos are put up on the website for sponsorship.

Usually about 12 to 15 images and 10 sponsored images goes into production as postcards.

Photographer will get a few sets of the postcards as an appreciation.

Previous themes include:

Religions and society, passion and aspirations, frozen moonlight and time and space. See postcards

Designers

Designers are wanted to design postcards, posters, leaflets and other marketing materials.

Each collection of postcards revolved around a theme or a storyline. Designers can help by designing the materials to bring out the essence of the theme.

Your design contribution will be mentioned on the finished product as an appreciation.
