TCIFF Launches 2023 Poster Competition

#Providenciales, May 5, 2023 – The Turks and Caicos International Film Festival (TCIFF) is excited to launch its highly anticipated 2023 poster competition by inviting all persons in the TCI, be they amateurs or professional photographers, to submit their pieces.

Organizers are encouraging all residents to grab their camera or phone and capture imagery that they feel best represents the TCI, the film industry, or the festival’s theme of “Oceans and Environment.”

Speaking about the competition, Chair of TCIFF Karen Whitt said, “We are excited about the 2023 poster competition, this year, we are looking for creativity in photography and we invite photographers of all skill levels to submit photos for the upcoming poster design.” She added, “The competition is open to all residents of the Turks and Caicos Islands, and the image can be a single shot, composite, or collage.”

She continued, “As always, the theme of the festival, ‘Oceans and Environment’, should be incorporated into every entry, but how that is demonstrated through photography is entirely up to the artists submitting their work.”

The TCIFF poster competition has long been a staple of the festival, and its unveiling has been an exciting reveal for many. From featuring the art of world-renowned local artist Bradley Theodore for their inaugural poster, to highlighting the incredibly talented youth of these islands in subsequent years, the poster has not only represented the festival to the world but has also showcased the creative talents that exist in the Turks and Caicos Islands.

The organization is encouraging all residents to participate by uploading their images to our website, www.tciff.org. “There is no limit to how many images you can submit, in fact, we encourage you to upload and submit as many images as you would like,” Whitt said.

“There will be a cash prize for the winning photograph, the winning image will be used in the creation of the 2023 poster and will be designed by the TCIFF organizers.”

The 5th annual Turks and Caicos International Film Festival will take place November 10–12, 2023, and it will once again be an event that combines the glitz and glamor of Hollywood with impact and purpose. The festival will also celebrate the best of filmmaking with a focus on safeguarding our oceans and environmental conservation.

Submissions for the poster competition will close on May 26, 2023. For more information, interested persons are encouraged to visit their website at:
