Sony Ericsson launches C905 Flickr photography competition

Sony Ericsson now gives you the opportunity to become Sony Ericsson Official Photographer 2009. If you’ve got a hidden photographer in you, you should definitely take part of Sony Ericsson’s newly launched C905 photography competition at Flickr.

The five individuals that get the most ‘Favs’ will each receive a C905 to keep. These five will then have to continue in the competition only using the C905, and taking pictures of motives selected by Sony Ericsson. The five will have one day for each motive. The individual with the most combined ‘Favs’ will win the title of Sony Ericsson Official Photographer 2009.

To enter the competition you have to be located in the UK, either have a Flickr account or register one, and upload a ‘never before published online’ portrait shot taken by you. You must also tag your photo with the following tags: sony ericsson, c905, photography competition.

Too bad this is UK only. I would have loved to take part of it.

More details about the competition, as well as many beautiful competition entries, over at Flickr.

Put On Your Dancing Shoes And Do The Fanwalk!

MTV invites all music lovers to search for their dancing shoes and participate on a trip from London to Liverpool’s European Music Awards — the so-called fanwalk. For nine days (29.10. - 06.11.2008) the 100 winners will blog, do interviews and photo shoots on fanwalk.tv.

To become one of these 100, you have to get a nickpage on the above site — that will launch on August 11th — and get as much votes for you as possible.

We assume it will be available in other languages from 11th.

Got star potential? Sony Ericsson digs your life captured

Sony Ericsson just recently launched an entirely new website called “Life Captured”. It’s a Cyber-shot campaign / contest that can make it possible for you to star in a movie or make a movie in a new film project, called “Life Captured”.

Sony Ericsson has hooked up with Mike Figgis, known for directing a large number of movies, and is giving you the chance to tell your life story with your camera phone, and create a film from these snapshots.

Five winners will win a C902, and will be invited on a VIP trip to the the film’s premiere at London’s Raindance Film Festival in October this year. Finally, one winner will be revealed at the premiere to win a grand prize, also to be revealed at this premiere.

You can find the website here, with lots of information on this contest. It all sounds very exciting, so do let us know if you sign up!

Sony Ericsson World View 2008

Following the great success of Sony Ericsson’s World View 2007 camera phone competitions with over 70,000 entries, Sony Ericsson recently announced the launch of the new World View 2008 competition, now bigger and better!

The goal of the competition is quite clear; simply snap a “picture perfect” photo, and upload it at the World View 2008 website. I don’t think the website has fully launched yet - at least not here - but it is said to be a stunning, interactive website making it possible to share photos and getting started with social networking.

So… prizes. This year’s prizes are really amazing. The person with the most votes from the people will get The People’s Choice prize, which is a £5,000 (€6,250) trip! If I enter, promise me you’ll vote for me!
The Experts’ Choice winner is chosen by Sony Ericsson’s panel of photography judges, and will be sent on a once-in-a-lifetime trip worth £10,000 (€12,500).

You can read more about the competition in the press release or at the official website once it’s launched.
