Hey guys,

I am really hoping I can get some help from the Dgrin community on this, I recently applied to SVA (<st1:place><st1:PlaceType>School</st1:PlaceType> of <st1:PlaceName>Visual Arts</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> in NYC). I have been told to come in on a interview and bring about 15-20 of my best shots. I really would not ask this normally but I don't have to many r/l friends that could help me <!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shapetype id="_x0000_t75" coordsize="21600,21600" o:spt="75" o:preferrelative="t" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" filled="f" stroked="f"> <v:stroke joinstyle="miter"/> <v:formulas> <v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum 0 0 @1&quot;/> <v:f eqn="prod @2 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 0 1"/> <v:f eqn="prod @6 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"/> </v:formulas> <v:path o:extrusionok="f" gradientshapeok="t" o:connecttype="rect"/> <o:lock v:ext="edit" aspectratio="t"/> </v:shapetype><v:shape id="_x0000_i1025" type="#_x0000_t75" alt="" style='width:11.25pt; height:11.25pt'> <v:imagedata src="file:///F:\DOCUME~1\Erik\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\01\clip_image001.gif" o:href="http://www.dgrin.com/images/smilies/rolleyes1.gif"/&gt; </v:shape><![endif]--><!--[if !vml]-->:rolleyes<!--[endif]-->

If anyone could though it would really be much appreciated, I have IOU's on hand if payment is needed!

On a different note I would also need a place to print them out, anyone from NYC have a particular spot they could recommend for good prints?

Thanks for any help on this one guys! <!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shape id="_x0000_i1026" type="#_x0000_t75" alt="" style='width:18.75pt;height:13.5pt'> <v:imagedata src="file:///F:\DOCUME~1\Erik\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\01\clip_image002.gif" o:href="http://www.dgrin.com/images/smilies/thumb.gif"/&gt; </v:shape><![endif]--><!--[if !vml]-->:thumb<!--[endif]-->

Aside from the prints, what are you asking? Adorama will do a fine job printing for you, if you need prints done locally in manhattan

Whoops, I see I forgot to mention that in detail, well I have to pick about 20 shots out of my current collection, most of which is online on my site. I was hoping I could get help choosing my best out of whats there.

DigiEyE

Here is a better description of what they are looking for http://www.schoolofvisualarts.edu/ug/index.jsp?sid0=1&sid1=39&page_id=135

I have a few shots in mind, but Im really not too sure.

JimM

I just started looking at your galleries. I like these:


would like to see this as a B&W


















(by the way, vehicles is spelled wrong on your site)

DigiEyE

Thank you for your help JimM! Its interesting I did not even really consider these images, but now that you point them I think I will defiantly use a few. They did actually go better in black & white also, most of them atleast

Thanks for the heads up on the miss spelling… that's just embarrassing <!--[if gte vml 1]><v:shapetype id="_x0000_t75" coordsize="21600,21600" o:spt="75" o:preferrelative="t" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" filled="f" stroked="f"> <v:stroke joinstyle="miter"/> <v:formulas> <v:f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 1 0"/> <v:f eqn="sum 0 0 @1&quot;/> <v:f eqn="prod @2 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @0 0 1"/> <v:f eqn="prod @6 1 2"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"/> <v:f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"/> <v:f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"/> <v:f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"/> </v:formulas> <v:path o:extrusionok="f" gradientshapeok="t" o:connecttype="rect"/> <o:lock v:ext="edit" aspectratio="t"/> </v:shapetype><v:shape id="_x0000_i1025" type="#_x0000_t75" alt="" style='width:11.25pt; height:11.25pt'> <v:imagedata src="file:///F:\DOCUME~1\Erik\LOCALS~1\Temp\msohtml1\01\clip_image001.gif" o:href="http://www.dgrin.com/images/smilies/rolleyes1.gif"/&gt; </v:shape><![endif]--><!--[if !vml]--><img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/rolleyes1.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" ><!--[endif]-->

@Andy

I got the prints back from adorama, they came out great, thanks again man .
My only complaint was they turned out a bit darker then they where on my PC but who knows if its me or them?

wxwax

Digi, I went to your galleries.

To be honest, there are far too many images for me to wade through all of them for you, in order to pick out the ones I like the best.

And to be honest, I think an important part of the exercise is for you to figure out what's good and what is not.

Not trying to be a cad, but you're asking for too much, which in part probably explains the lack of response.

If you were to ask for feedback on a limited number of shots I think you'd get a lot more help.

@wxwax

I realized there where a lot, I ended up sifting threw and deleting a lot of unnecessary ones and repeats when I was looking for a select number to use. Thank you anyway though for the effort .

I got accepted today based off the ones I had chosen so I guess I'm set.
