Hello all,

I hope you all had a great long weekend!

The guide season is upon us and I would greatly appreciate if all of you participate in it. Your contribution to The Ubyssey matters a lot!

Announcements

  • I will be out of Canada for the next 2 months. If you need to borrow a camera from the office, please let me know a day or two in advance.

  • More Guide requests will be coming up soon, so keep an eye out for it!

1. Check out these guides to the Ubyssey photo section and what makes a good photo.

2. To claim a pitch, reply to this email and wait for confirmation from me that it's still available.

3. If you need to borrow a camera, let me know when you sign up for a pitch.

4. Take as many photos as you think fit the assignment, then select the best 5–10. Feel free to use editing software as needed (and let me know if you need Lightroom access).
