Ian Parry Scholarship 2010
The Ian Parry Scholarship 2010 deadline has been extended to Friday 9th July 10am (UK Time) Applications are digital. FTP instructions and application forms are available from www.ianparry.org
The Ian Parry Scholarship is designed to award young photojournalists with a bursary that will enable them to undertake a chosen project and raise their profile in the international photographic community. The Scholarship is aimed at traditional or contemporary photojournalism and photographers with strong story telling capabilities.
Ian Parry was a photojournalist who died whilst on assignment for the Sunday Times during the Romanian revolution in 1989. He was just 24 years old. The Scholarship was set up by Aidan Sullivan and Ian's friends and family in order to build something positive from such a tragic death.
The competition is for photographers on fulltime photographic courses or who are 24 years or under. The prize is £3,000 towards an assignment, a commission for Save The Children plus £500 for runners up.
Entrants must submit:
A digital portfolio of 12 images to our FTP following our guidelines
An application form
A brief synopsis of a project they would undertake if they won the award
