Testimonials


When IMG Artists, organisers of the Singapore Sun Festival, were given the task to manage an international photographic competition for Insight Guides as part of the Singapore Sun Festival they started to consider what platform would be appropriate for such a prestigious event. With no in-house resources to run a highly professional and fully curated photographic competition that would engage enthusiasts from around the world, IMG Artists turned to Photophuse for a solution and discovered their new photo competitions platform was the perfect 'plug and play' solution.
Mindy Coppin, Senior Vice President and Director for IMG Artists Asia Pacific, said:


'We had previously managed these types of activities in house but with the proliferation of Digital Imagery and our desire to make the Competition a huge success for our key sponsor, Insight Guides, and their co- sponsors Nikon, Epson and Kinokuniya Books we needed something more. The days of emailing images or uploading to a server are history and our brief included a curated submission process, a visually appealing Gallery that the public could interact with, a rating and comments system, suitable exposure for all of our key sponsors through a larger and more powerful on-line marketing platform. Photophuse provided us with a fully re-branded solution that met and exceeded all of our requirements.'


In linking via the promoter's website the contestants were guided to the Singapore Sun Festival event and then entered the competition. In doing so they were transferred to the dynamic gallery platform and the rest was left to the gallery to manage. The entry and uploading process is simple and fast and can be controlled by the manager of the event.

 

'Entries started flooding in and we went from 30 entries to over 700 entries in a matter of 10 days and we now have over 1000 entries. With thanks to the Gallery the image quality and participation rate excelled and there was little to no additional promotion or expense required by us after the initial setup' Ms Coppin stated.


Sponsors have also reaped the benefits of the platform with a significant increase in participation and traffic to the site providing greater exposure for the event and its sponsors. Michelle Yong, Sales and Marketing Director for Insight Guides (Asia Pacific & Middle East) commented:


'Insight Guides have been extremely impressed with the platform used to run the 'Things I Love' photo competition this year. There is no doubt the number and standard of entries has increased significantly and the platform provided by Photophuse has increased the appeal of the competition to contestants, public and subsequent exposure for all of our Sponsors.'

olympusWhen Olympus Australia were planning a product launch of their new E-PL1 digital camera, the globally recognised photography brand called on Photophuse for assistance. In collaboration with Olympus sales and marketing personnel, the Gallery devised a fully branded competition portal, which was hosted on the OlympusImaging.com.au domain.
Photophuse’s solution included social media elements such as a message board for participants, and the second phase of the competition displayed winners’ photos in a customised gallery.

In 2010, the marketing team at Laura Ashley Australia decided to run a living room makeover competition and engaged Photophuse to help. In what has probably been the most unique use of our photo competition portal to date, competition entrants were asked to take a photograph of their living room and to provide a short text description of why their living room should be made over by Laura Ashley. Photophuse provided a fully managed photo hosting solution, as well as marketing and graphic design support for the competition.
