Topic: calendar

[Andrea.]

I love to have a nice photo calendar hanging on the wall so I gaze lovingly at it from time to time and be amazed every time a month passes. I have had in the past one by Kenna, myself :-) and last year the Alternative Photography thingy.

Can't seem to find anything interesting/ new / different this year. Any suggestions please.

Why not have your own printed

Now there's a FW project idea: get submissions, vote on them, top 12 get put in the calendar. Print-on-demand so there's no unnecessary costs. A bit late for 2014, I suppose....

Maybe a tad late for 2014 but a great time to kick off a project for us all for 2015

Well, if we go by western tradition and start the calendar at January 1st then we are definitely too late for 2014. If, though, we buck tradition and declare that the Filmwasters calendar begins on April 1, then we would certainly have time to arrange something. Hell, timekeeping is a human construct anyway, we can be flexible with it in our own self-interest, can't we?

the inland revenue can't be wrong....

if you're quick about it you could make one and get it in time for next year I guess

I made a cute little cyanotype calendar (safe for work)  which I'm very proud of
http://www.lulu.com/product/calendar/cyanotypes/12573416

I'm pretty impressed with the printing quality. It's not fine art but it's good enough for a calendar that's most likely going to be viewed from 1-2 ft away at the closest.

Also... do we want to make another filmwasters calendar? I wouldn't mind putting it together but someone else can pick the images. I think I have a good grip of lulu's printing/software now anyway. They're about £8.25 with no profit margin which is wot the FW 2011 calendar would be I guess?

Only problem is it takes 7-8 calendar days for it to be printed/sent/arrived here so we'd have to get our acts together on it in time for Christmas. Not many weeks left y'know

too bad this wasn't brought up earlier or we could have had one put together here like previous years.

To be honest I thought someone was going to come up with a suggestion of a calendar by D'Agata, Ackermann or some such wonderfulness.

So, perhaps we will have to produce one ourselves again [see http://www.lulu.com/shop/film-wasters/filmwasters-2011/calendar/product-14244289.html ].

Happy to put one together with YOUR images if anyone is interested in a 2014 calendar from April 1st! I will donate an image too if that's OK and, the project has been OK'd by the powers that be.

Who is interested in giving an 'interesting' image for the project and who would like a calendar?

[Late Developer]

I'm always up for it, Andrea.  Hope what I send is deemed good enough....

[Andrea.]

Ok, can we do this FILMWASTERS calendar - those in charge ? Please.

If we get the go-ahead, happy to put it together. You lot can sort out an interesting image to send to me and all that in the meantime.

sounds good,

A friend pf mine produces a calendar for himself every year
he uses images from throughout the year to highlight the different months
he uses RED BUBBLE to print it, really looks the business and great print and paper quality!

[This-is-damion]

ill say yes... usual deal  - not for profit.

ill chase up the others - but cant see this being an issue.

[Andrej K]

Will there be a theme? Or layout requirements? Square / horizontal / vertical...?

[Andrea.]

Just waiting for the official Ok on this. Thinking of using http://www.lulu.com as they are ok - reasonable price and all that.

Once we have the all clear I'll sort the details. Having said that have had two images sent to me already :-)

Andrea, it's all yours. We should have thought of it earlier....sorry for missing the boat.

Maybe start a new thread on the subject and I'll pin it to the top so it stays visible.

Most companies in the UK work holidays from April to April so i think calenders should do the same

Great idea. Don't think I have anything worth contributing myself, but would buy a copy.
