C/O Berlin and the Berlinale are seeking ... young photojournalists (4.11.2012)

for the project Close Up!

from 7 to 17 February 2013

Show us your picture of the Berlinale! It seems like an easy task but it’s harder than you might think. From February 7 to 17, 2013, 14 young photographers will receive the opportunity to experience working as professional photojournalists at the Berlinale. The young photographers are given the assignment of presenting their personal view of the Berlinale in all its diversity—the red carpet, glamorous film stars, hectic staff, or behind-the-scenes secrets. Each participant will decide on a theme, embark on a search for motifs, select images, and put together a series of works for exhibition. The photographs will be shown at C/O Berlin at the conclusion of the Berlinale and the best series will receive an award.

Applications may be submitted immediately! Prospective photographers between the ages of 20 and 25 who are still enrolled in their studies are invited to participate. The following application materials should be submitted in printed form by no later than Friday, January 11, 2013, to project head Ann-Christin Bertrand: a brief CV with ten samples of work (max. size A4, no originals since the application materials will not be returned).
