| Date of Application to Closing Date | ||
| Exhibition's closing date must be 6 months or more from today. | ||
| Entry Form - Conditions of Entry | ||
| A draft of your entry form and Conditions of Entry must be received before your exhibition may receive PSA Recognition. If you are offering Monochrome sections, it must include the PSA PID Monochrome Definition. | ||
| If your exhibition is also requesting patronage from other organizations, such as FIAP, your entry form may require entries meet the more stringent of the published definitions and must include all applicable definitions. | ||
| The draft may be a conventional "word processing document", a PDF document, or a HTML web page. | ||
| Exhibition Name | ||
| If an Exhibition name implies a specific subject matter, then all sections offered by that the Exhibition must relate to that subject matter. | ||
| Closing Date | ||
| If you will be judging on Saturday the 15th then you may wish to close on Monday the 3rd. This way the exhibitor gets the final weekend and the exhibition gets nearly two weeks to process the images, resolve problems, etc. | ||
| Report Card Mailing Date | ||
| Schedule your report card mailing date 14 days after the last day of judging. You can mail (or email) report cards earlier but this gives you maximum flexibility to comply with the schedule. | ||
| EDAS Date | ||
| Every PSA recognized exhibition is required to submit a Exhibition Data Acceptance Spreadsheet (EDAS) for each section and judging recognized by PSA. This is in the form of an EXCEL spreadsheet using the template that will be emailed to you as part of the acknowledgement of this application. They are required to be submitted no later than 45 days after completion of your judging. | ||
| Catalog Mailing Date | ||
| Use the full 77 days (11 weeks) in the application to do the final mailing of slides, awards and catalogs. You can do the mailing at any time you wish but this gives you maximum flexibility to comply with the schedule requirements. | ||
| Sections and Classes | ||
| The Projected Image Division (PID) has two Star Paths, COLOR CLASS and MONOCHROME CLASS. Exhibitions may offer Monochrome images in the COLOR CLASS sections but the Conditions of Entry (Entry Rules) must clearly state that any Monochrome images accepted in COLOR CLASS sections may only be used for COLOR CLASS star ratings. | ||
| Application | ||
| Application on following page must be completed and submitted. Go over the application carefully because there are numerous edits to catch any omission of critical data. | ||
| Payment of fees | ||
| Payment for Recognition Fee and PSA Medals/Ribbons must be received before PSA Recognition can be granted. If using PayPal, the Director will notify you when to submit your payment. | ||
| Circuits | ||
| PLEASE NOTE: Individual judgings in an exhibition recognized as a Circuit will not be considered independant autonomous exhibitions for Star Ratings and Who's Who purposes and must not be listed as such in the Circuit's Catalog. | ||
| The interval between individual judgings in a Circuit may not exceed 30 Days. | ||
| Judging | ||
| All PID Sections are projected image sections and all entries must be judged by some form of projection. Entries can not be converted to prints made by exhibition personnel or other third party and judged in that format. In addition, exhibitions may not reduce images to sizes less than that required by the entry form for judging. | ||
| Thank You For Your Assistance | ||
| These requirements are mandated by PSA's Exhibition Standards document. | ||
