PHOTO COMPETITION FOR ALIWAN FIESTA 2008
Posted by on April 6, 2008
Manila Broadcasting Company is mounting a photography competition in line with this year’s Aliwan Fiesta 2008, scheduled on May 1-3 at the CCP Complex in Pasay.
The contest, which carries the theme “Sayaw, Padyak, Indak” is open to both amateur and professional photographers, using digital or film-based cameras. Photos of the streetdance contingents must have been taken during the competition period, and should not have won nor have been published in any book or photography magazine. Entries must be printed in full colour on any brand of photo paper in 8R size (8 inches x 10 inches).
These should be submitted to Eloi Baltazar at the MBC office, Sotto Street, CCP Complex, Pasay City in an envelope with an Aliwan Fiesta Photo Competition entry form in triplicate (one copy attached to the photograph, one for the receiving staff, and one copy for the photographer-entrant). The name of the contest participant should not appear on the face of the entry.
P50,000 are at stake for the first prize winner, with P25,000 going to second place, and P10,000 for the third prize. All entries become the property of MBC, which will have the right to reproduce, exhibit, or publish the images for promotional purposes, indicating and acknowledging the photographer.
Deadline for submission of entries is on May 16, 2008 at 5 p.m. Entry Forms may be downloaded here
The grand parade of Aliwan Fiesta 2008 takes place on May 3 at 4PM, traversing the length of Roxas Boulevard, and culminating in front of Aliw Theatre.

wouldnt this be degrading the right of the photographer since ones the image has been submitted, it is already the property of the company? This is just unfair!

thanks.!
Hi… Is there any application form available or any online registration for this contest? Or anybody can just submit their entries before the said deadline? I’m from Zamboanga City and I want to participate in this competition.
Where can i get a copy of the entry form since i cannot access http://www.mbcradio.net?
Also, can we send more than one entry?
please stay tuned. ill contact the Aliwan Fiesta organizers about this.
the mbcradio site is finally up!
Thank you for sharing this! Some amateur photographers are asking whether there is a need for ID or PASS during the event…
I hope you don’t mind me asking you a favor if you could ask them if there is any additional guideline on this? Or this event is a free for all activity?
I read some discussion in Flickr groups that in the past, there were actually some kind of VIP Pass so that we can have a free access to the event.
Thanks!
its a free for all event
Just bring your Media ID to get access to the pressbox.
I see. Thanks for the reply. We neither have a press ID nor are members of the media. I guess we just have to be on the sidelines then…I just hope the MBC could provide a space for the photographers even if we are not members of the media.
Thanks.
question so can we edit the pictures or enhance it using photoshop and the likes?
i hope there is a complete guidelines regarding the contest like the requirements etc. if theres any where can we find it? thank you.
