Manila Broadcasting Company is mounting a photography competition in line with this year’s Aliwan Fiesta, 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.  Complete details may be found on the Aliwan Fiesta link of the MBC website at www.mbcradio.net

Sponsored by Smart Buddy, Tanduay, Unilab, Suplicio Lines, and Dunkin’ Donuts, the grand parade of Aliwan Fiesta 2008 takes place on May 3, traversing the length of Roxas Boulevard, and culminating in front of Aliw Theatre.
