Getty Images stressed that the trip includes (estimated value US$15,000): 2 x round trip Economy flights to Cannes, Accommodation for 2 in Cannes (1 room), Airport transfers for 2, 2 x complete delegate badges and 2 x VIP wristbands to the Opening and Closing Galas.
“At Getty Images, we call this imagery “Conceptual Realism”, and it’s one of the visual trends for 2018. With this trend, we’re seeing a shift toward imagery that is authentic and real but combines an added or unexpected creative twist – often resulting in ideas that are farfetched. Simply re-imagine everyday moments and capture an image (s) of an unusual, comical, and/or surreal moment that combines authenticity and creativity.” It said.
According Getty Images such moments to be considered include: an image that makes you laugh the type you’d share on a social channel. An image that seems surreal, that makes you look twice. An image that captures something spontaneous. An image that expresses your unique creativity.
