Many of the photographers coming into town for the Mardi Gras 360 Degrees project need inexpensive places to stay. If you have space on a couch or an extra bedroom, and would consider putting up a photographer (I will have at least a few staying here with me) please contact me. Some have a little cash to spend so you might work out an arrangement that way as well
Thanks in advance,

Mardi Gras 360 Degrees
I would like to invite you to participate in an exciting project that I am putting together this year called Mardi Gras 360 Degrees. Photographers from all over the country are
coming to New Orleans to photograph during Mardi Gras week and to take part in workshops, classes and parties.
Our headquarters at the McKenna Museum for African American Art, at 2003 Carondelet Street, will open on January 25th. Besides two expansive meeting rooms there is a comfortable lounge area with couches and wi-fi which will be perfect for people to gather and to go over each other's work. We will have a projector available when there is not a formal presentation or workshop going on. Lori Waselchuk, Kael Alford, Chris Usher, and I will be heading teams of photographers given specific assignments to complete over the course of the workshop.
Karen Mullarkey, formerly the picture editor at Rolling Stone, New York Magazine and Newsweek will be coming from New York to head up the picture editing.
The printing and the exhibition will be downtown in the Gallery at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Foundation offices. Shelly Katz who is an Epson expert will be printing the show which will run from February 6th through March at the Gallery . We will have a projection of the photographers work on the evening of the February 6th, Ash Wednsday. We expect to be adding many more events over the next few weeks, and are very interested in suggestions and participation by Alliance members.
Blueeyes Magazine has expressed interest in publishing this work, and I am also having discussions with the Duke University Center of Doucmentary Studies. We will be launching the 100eyes website on Digital Railroad that, should you wish, will market your work online, with 25% of the sales going to the Alliance.
Any Alliance member can come by and drop off work on a CD to be considered for inclusion in the project (you will need to adhere to specific requirements for file naming, captions, and IPTC data, that will be be posted on the website.) Please register (its free) on the website.
In addition, we for are offering a discounted fee of $325 for participation in all the events, workshops, classes, and parties planned, have a guaranteed slot in the projection and at least one image printed for the gallery show and included in the show catalog.
For those of you who don't know me, I moved to New Orleans in 2004. I have remained here after Katrina, and I am committed to the New Orleans community. Part of the idea for this workshop came from my perception that too often those coming to New Orleans to document our city seemed to know very little about it. They preferred to impose their own set of values and preconceptions on what they saw here, rather than try to learn from those who actually live here. With that in mind I have planned a full day of presentations by local experts and members of the culture to help the photographers better understand what they will be photographing.
I think this is a great opportunity for local photographers to really show off their stuff. No one knows Mardi Gras better than you do, and we are interested in many of the aspects of the holiday that are not typically seen. In addition, we are especially looking for any
images of New Orleans taken on Mardi Gras Day. These do not have to relate to the holiday itself, but can be about any aspect of life in our city. No one knows the streets of New Orleans better than we do-- no one.
This project grew out of an idea on the Lightstalkers website a few months ago, and although I have done the lion's share of work, its very much a collaborative effort. If any of you have some ideas of how to enhance the program, or would like to volunteer some time, or donate materials, please email me.

Photography Workshops In New Orleans This Winter
Tuesday, December 11, 2007
Contact: David H. Lyman DHLyman@TheWorkshops.com
Photography Workshops Scheduled for New Orleans This Winter.
This winter, Photography Workshops International is bringing a series of photo and multimedia workshops to New Orleans. The first of these workshops is The Digital Video Journalism Workshop, February 22 through March 2, 2008. This 9-day workshop is lead by award-winning photojournalists Dirck Halstead and PF Bentley. Called “The Platypus Workshops” in the business, this course helps newspaper photographers and photojournalists from around the world make the transition into digital video storytelling. Canon and Apple are sponsors providing digital video cameras and editing work stations for the 12 participants. This workshop is being held at the Ambassador Hotel. Information on this workshop, and other 4 workshops being held in New Orleans can be found at
www.WorkshopsInternational.com
David H. Lyman, the photographer who founded and built The Maine Photographic Workshops, the world’s largest summer photo school, has launched another enterprise with a world-wide vision: Photography Workshops International. This new institution will conduct over two-dozen workshops throughout the world in 2008, with New Orleans playing host to five workshops.
The other workshops will be held in New Orleans include:
The New Multi-Media Storytelling Workshop with National Geographic magazine photographer, Bob Sacha, March 2 to 8. Learn how to combine images, sound and voices to tell an on-line story.
The Photographic Documentary Project, March 7 to 15, is an 8-day workshop with Norman Mauskopf, author of four books of images documenting rural American life.
“The Travel Photography Assignment” workshop, March 16 to 22, is led by travel photographer and digital Guru Rick Sammon. Rick, host of ESPN’s TV series on travel photography, will take his class through the digital workflow process as they tackle New Orleans as a travel magazine assignment.
New Orleans Street Stories is a 6-day workshop in photojournalism and personal documentary work, March 30 to April 5, with award-winning photojournalist and editor, Maggie Steber.
David Lyman will lead a three day workshop, March 7, 8 and 9, 2008, called: “Re-inventing Yourself—Discovering Your Next Career.” David has help thousands of professionals re-shape their creative careers, re-write their futures and find creative expression in their work and personal lives. This three day workshop is for media artists, professional and amateurs, CEOs, photographers, designers, writers and anyone who is considering a changer of careers, or those facing retirement who need to re-invent themselves. The 3-day workshop is being held at the Ambassador Hotel in the art district of New Orleans.
David H. Lyman has been organizing and conducting workshops and educational programs in photography, film and digital multimedia for the past 34 years. The Maine Photographic Workshops, which he founded in 1973 and directed for 33 years, is now the world’s leading workshop center for photographers, filmmakers and multimedia artists. David turned over the reins of The Workshops to Maine Media Workshops, a nonprofit, earlier this year, giving him time and freedom to re-invent himself, and focus on more global programs.
Photography Workshop International is conducting “The Great Photographic Cities of The World;” is a series of ten-day workshops in such photographic cities as Paris, Rome, Venice, Rio, Prague, Budapset, Istanbul, New York City, Buenos Aries, Saigon, Barcelona, as well as New Orleans. David’s new travel institution is also conducting field projects and photographic tours to the Greek island of Crete; a tour of South Vietnam for journalists, Vietnam vets and their families; there is a photographer’s tour of Rajasthan, India and Kashmir; and a workshop in Kampala, Uganda photographing and video taping the humanitarian work of the world’s relief agencies.

Two Opportunities
Paula Barr, a New York photographer, is coming to the Gulf Coast to shoot images for the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland to be held in January 2008. She is in need of a photo assistant {in mid December}. I thought there may be members of the photo alliance who would find this interesting. I think she has a budget to compensate someone. If you could forward this on to your members, I would be very grateful.
Thanks,
Scott

An Evening with Keith Carter
The Contemporary Arts Center (CAC)
900 Camp St.
New Orleans, LA 70130
Freeport-McMoRan Theatre
Friday, December 7th, 7:30 pm
COST: $10.00
The New Orleans Photo Alliance is proud to announce a lecture and slide viewing with Keith Carter, an internationally respected photographer and photo educator. Mr. Carter teaches at Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas where he holds the Walles Chair of Art and the highest faculty honor, the University Professor Award. He has been recognized twice with National Endowment for the Arts regional survey grants, and he received the Lange-Taylor Prize from the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University.
Mr. Carter’s photographs are in permanent collections throughout the country, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the George Eastman House. Mr. Carter has had over seventy solo exhibitions in six countries: he is currently being represented in New York at the Howard Greenberg Gallery, in Chicago at the Catherine Edelman Gallery, Houston’s McMurtrey Gallery and the Photo-Eye Gallery in Santa Fe.
Born in Madison Wisconsin in 1948, Keith Carter is a self-taught photographer whose evocative portraits and documentary styling of home-spun subjects have garnished a huge following and a great many imitators. Called "a poet of the ordinary" in a Los Angeles Times review, Mr. Carter has turned his everyday subjects gently sideways. His photographs, featuring favorite themes such as popular culture, religion, folklore and farm life, are compelling partly for the familiarity one feels when viewing them. However, the thing that elevates his photographs and gives them their true majesty is the intimacy that the artist achieves with his subjects. The exquisite intimacy of the images gives them their enormous impact and reveals Keith Carter to be a true American folk artist in the photographic medium. This event should not be missed!

“We are thrilled that the New Orleans Museum of Art is sponsoring this wonderful event,” said Maja Georgiou, Alliance Treasurer and event organizer. “PhotoNOMA will be one of the gems in this years’ PhotoNOLA lineup. We hope photography enthusiasts and the public at large come out to see the wide and wonderful range of work that will be on display. The excitement and buzz amongst the participating photographers should make for a dynamic evening.”
