Dear Secondary School/JC/Poly Students,
Greetings! Following the success of the inaugural VJC-Canon Photography Exposé last year, it gives me great pleasure to inform you that the VJC Photography Society and Canon Singapore will be organizing Exposé II. This will be held on Saturday, 28th March, from 0830h to 1230h at Victoria Junior College.
I am pleased to extend an invitation to your College's / School's student photographers and media club members to join us for both the EOS Seminar as well as the EOS Experience which promises to be even bigger than before!
The EOS Seminar
Participants will get to hear from three speakers who are well-known local photographers and photography enthusiasts – Mr Francis Lee, Dr Leslie Tay and Mr Jino Lee. They will cover topics relevant to student photographers, namely Action, Food and Travel Photography respectively. There will also be a display of the speakers’ photos.
Participants are encouraged to interact more with the speakers during the EOS Experience segment and tap on their expertise at the relevant stations for sports and macro photography especially.

His works create awareness of local hawker centres and provides insight on their lives.

The EOS Experience

Participants may bring their own Canon EOS digital SLRs to try them with Canon’s professional lenses.
There will also be a Printer Station, where participants can try out Canon’s photo printers. Each participant is entitled to one free A4-sized print! They may bring their own image file in either their CF or SD cards or print a photo they shoot on the day.
Canon Singapore is also happy to provide a free cleaning service for participants who bring their own Canon EOS digital SLRs.
All participants will be given a Canon goodie bag.
Registration is free of charge (please register as a school) … but places are limited and will be given on a first-come-first-served basis! The closing date for registration is Friday, 20th March 2009.
