Arts Freedom Australia Protests this Sunday August 29th Sydney Cove & Steps of Parliament House, Melbourne
27 August, 2010
Photography in Australia is under attack and photographers are losing their rights to freedom of expression. If you feel you're being treated like a criminal, a predator or a terrorist, here's your chance to have your say.
Join Ken Duncan and some of Australia's leading photographers at an Arts Freedom Australia Protest Rally to demand fair access for all to iconic public locations like Sydney Harbour, Bondi Beach and Uluru.Come along with your camera and tripod to fight for our rights and demand an end to the growing number of unjust rules and regulations which are making our passion for photography increasingly difficult.
There is now a rally in Melbourne as well and will be MC'd by ACMP director Rob Anderson. Rob has kindly 'volunteered' to lead the Rally. We hope to have a Live Audio Feed of Ken Duncan's speech. Come one, come all - join us on the steps of Parliament at 10AM. Bring your camera, tripod and friends. There are national prizes to be won for the best photos taken at the Rally's.
Whether you're a full-time or part-time professional or strictly amateur, this issue affects EVERYONE. More importantly, this rally is also for everyone who values visual imagery - not just photographers.
For all enquiries phone (02) 4307 8409

Embeddedmetadat.org a new campaign to embed information permanently in digital media .…
ACMP: 13 December, 2011
A picture may be worth 1,000 words, but permanently attached descriptions are worth a lot more as photos travel through the digital world. A campaign has been launched now to embed descriptive and rights information in digital media and to retain it during the whole life cycle.
The initiative has been launched by the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC), the American Association of Advertising Agencies (4A's), and the Association of National Advertisers (ANA), with the support of trade organisations, including the ACMP, representing visual arts and photo agencies. It aims to establish the practice of applying descriptions and the copyright status of the content as metadata, and to embed it permanently during the electronic exchange of digital photo, text, audio or video files. -
