2023 Call For Images

THE MAIN EXHIBITION WILL BE AN AV ONLY – ALTHOUGH WE MAY HAVE SOME OPPORTUNITIES TO PRINT SOME IMAGES

You can submit up to 5 images of New Zealand artists playing in New Zealandfor consideration for this year’s AV exhibition which will run during NZ Music Month (May 2023).

FromThePit is focussed on images taken at shows in an official capacity.  Usually this means you were shooting for a publication, a venue, a promoter or the band rather than ‘audience shots’ taken with a mobile phone.

See FromThePit.co.nz/info to read these details online

There is no cost to participate in the exhibition if your images is chosen.

We will select the final combination of AV pictures from all the entries. Due to space constraints we may not be able to include all photographers and images in the AV – it’s better we limit the numbers to create a higher impact AV than try to pack too much in.

The selection team’s decision is final and will be based on the combination of images submitted across all the photographers. Don’t hate on us just because we didn’t choose to include you or your favourite image(s)!

You will be sent an automated email with all the information you’ve entered when you’ve completed the form.  The email will tell you how you can go back and edit the information (before the deadline) if you need to!
