明天就是报名活动...

有多少人会下来?雨还会倾盆而下吗?今年会看到怎么样的照片?用传统底片的人会减少吗?有多少volunteers答应下来帮忙?

种种疑问与问题总在近日的开会中提出,只因我们都抱着一股热忱欲把最好的做出来。5个人齐分担这重量,坦白说很不简单。还好一直获得四面八方的支持,加上各报章媒体在这几天都陆续刊登活动消息,给我们打了枝强心针。在这里先向大家说声thank you!

或许我们的力量微不足道,不过我们固执地相信这个城市是需要用影像来保存记忆、用文字来记载一些鲜为人知的故事。唯有通过大家对这城市的关爱,就算一些建筑拆除了、一些事物走远了,我们还有珍贵的照片把回忆凝固。

凡关爱岛国或纯粹喜欢摄影的朋友们,明天我们7时在百胜楼见。风雨无阻!

All Eyes!

Are you ready for the challenge?

Within a 24-hour period, you need to hand in 36 pieces of photographic works, depicting life in our city Singapore!

Challenging our city dwellers, Eye e City 2006 will once again be the platform for our participants to capture the spirit of “Life in the City” and present their observations to the public.

Combining the art of Photography and Journalism, 100 pieces of works that best describe the city in 2006 will be selected for final exhibition and publication by August 2007.

Using film or digital format, participants will be facing a new challenge this year. We are introducing a new style for the first time in our event. Participants may experiment with presenting their topics in a 5-framed Photo Essay format. Find out more when you register.

Come and Join us at Bras Basah Complex, ground floor, foyer outside Cheers Store, for a mini-exhibition, where interactions through conversations and discussions with past participants, organizers and experienced photographers may take place.

Set the date in your calendar, 30 Dec 2006, 7pm till 10pm. Registration and issue of films will take place at the booths. You can also purchase our past publications at a special price. Last year’s participants can also collect their printed works (those selected) if they have not done so.

Event proper will take place during the last 24 hours of the year. Starting from 12.01am till 12.59pm, 31 Dec 2006, participants will work at getting their topics from anywhere within Singapore, including the outlying islands.

Both the film and digital users will then return to our booths on 31 Dec, 8pm till past midnight, to submit a maximum of 36 frames for qualifying. On 13 and 14 January 2007, participants will personally select and enter their best 3 sets of work. Final Selection by a panel of judges will occur at the end of the month.

If you are not enthusiastic with photography, but very interested with the overall purpose of our event, you are welcome to join us and volunteer your service. Do contact us.

Best of Cheers for 2006 and Best of Wishes for 2007!

PENANG IS DOING IT again THIS YEAR!
A Visual Account of the Last 24 Hours of 2006

The pioneers of Eye e City were inspired by this event in Penang back in 2002 when they decided to start a similar one in Singapore. Since then, the 24-hour photo event which once enthused 7 Malaysian cities disappeared from the Peninsula.

We are very happy that it is now back in Penang and hopefully in time to come, in other cities not only in Malaysia, but also the world.

An opportunity for dwellers, where ever they are to care for and express their feelings for the place they live in through photographs.

"A melting pot of culture and tradition, the common denominator that all Singaporeans can relate to is a special occasion, especially a weddng. The picture is proof that no matter who or where we come from, Singaporeans are able to enjoy peace and harmony due to the racial understanding that we have between the different races and cultures in Singapore."
