It's the 10th Anniversary of the first Toy Camera Print Exchange on APUG (2006), but it seems the last exchange was held in 2009?? That just won't do! Let's revive this TCP exchange!
So, anyone up for a new round of TCP to commemorate this anniversary? If so, I'm willing to moderate a new TCP exchange (TCP-3), starting in September or October (after the holidays) with a deadline for sending in November 2016. (Yes: you may start shooting now to get a head start.)
This will be a worldwide group print exchange, with groups of no more than 4-6 people. So let me know how many prints you're willing to send. And if some folks can only afford to send one print, please PM me. We can make that work also. When I've got all the names and numbers, I will form all the groups, so everyone should send and receive the same amount of prints. If there's a shortage somewhere to form another complete group, I'll fill in the gap myself with some extra prints.
And what's a toy camera? Probably almost anything with lots of plastic, light leaks or lack of decent camera features
When in doubt, just PM me.
How to participate:
1) Please let us know in this thread if you like to participate and how many prints you'd like to send out. For now the signing up period will be open until August 15th, 2016.
2) When enough APUGers joined, I'll start forming the groups. To do so, I'll request all to send me a PM (at that time) with your name, address and the type of camera you're gonna use.
3) I'll form the groups and will send PM's to everyone with the names & addresses of their assignments before September 1st. You then have 3 months to fulfill your part of the exchange.
Exchange Rules:
1) It is a toy camera exchange, so the rules are minimal.
2) The original image must be shot with an analogue toy camera.
3) it doesn't have to be an new print, you may use your archive as well.
4) You can send the same print to everyone, or different ones to each. You choose.
5) Form, size, format, mounted or not, b/w or color, straight print or alt-photo, ....: you choose the way you'd like to print.
6) Homemade prints or pro lab are both fine. Please no inkjet prints.
7) You're kindly requested to comment on the received prints in the TCP-2016 thread (yet to be opened).
8) If anything else comes up, I'll let you know.
9) Did I mention that toy camera and print exchanges are fun??
Questions:
Any questions? Please let me know and send me a PM!!
