TIPA Rules
Sports Action Photography
Time limit and deadline will be announced at contest. Shots may not be staged. Each contestant may submit ONE photo. Photographers must abide by all guidelines, rules, restrictions pertaining to contest participation.
The sports contest will involve a tour of the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium. Rules, guidelines and what is permissible are being dictated by the folks at the stadium -- not TIPA.
So, we have to abide by their rules. Anyone -- not abiding by their rules will not be permitted to participate.
There will be no leeway, no exceptions, no excuses.
Notice - Contestants should do advanced research about the stadium. Information about the Cowboys' new home will not be disseminated at the preliminary meeting, which will be at noon at the hotel. Since advanced notice is being given about the contest, contestants will have plenty of time to compile information about the stadium.
Also, all contestants should consider eating something prior to boarding the bus. No lunch is included in this contest. No refreshments or lunch will be served at the stadium.
Below is the information directly from the site administrators that TIPA is to follow:
Contestants MUST wear Durable work-type shoes.
Shoes must cover foot completely, have sturdy soles, and no stiletto type heels. Tennis shoes are not acceptable; thus, sandals are not acceptable.
* SHORTS ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE AS FAR AS DRESS IS CONCERN
*An escort will come and meet you and provide you with a hard hat, safety glasses and a safety vest.
Criteria: Capturing essence of the event, human-interest element, original point of view, emphasis of point of interest, suitability for publication and cutline information.
