Do:
- Submit high-quality photos and videos (minimum resolution: 1200×1800 or 2MB).
- Get permission from the subject(s) of the photos/videos before submitting.
- Capture the community, culture, natural beauty, and spirit of your host country.
- Feel free to create vlog-style videos, such as “A Day in the Life.”
- Wear Arcadia swag, if possible.
- Include a caption or a description of the video / photo so we can best depict and describe it.
Don’t:
- Submit photos or videos shot by someone other than you.
- Enter pictures of landmarks unless you or your classmates are prominently featured. We want to see you exploring your Preview destination.
- Send us the same subject from different angles. Be selective with your submissions.
- Submit photos of cats, dogs, flowers, camels—we love ’em, but we also have those here!
Each photo entry should include a brief description (one to two sentences) detailing where you are, what you’re doing, and who you’re with. Images must be high-resolution (at least 2MB) and can be lightly modified (color-corrected, cropped). Entries that are visibly Photoshopped will not be considered.
