Media Team Application

The Desiree Alliance Media Team needs help documenting the "Pulling Back the Sheets: Sex, Work, and Social Justice" conference in Chicago, Jul 16-20. We are seeking 3-4 volunteer photographers and 3-4 volunteer videographers with or without their own equipment who are interested in helping us by photographing and shooting sessions throughout the conference. Only official conference photographers and videographers will be able to shoot during sessions, though other people may make photos and videos during social time as well.

Note: The media you produce will be the property of Desiree Alliance, and all video tapes, film, and memory cards will be supplied by and then delivered to the Desiree Alliance after they have been used.

We are committed to diversity and inclusion. This is why we ask for some demographic information below. All sections are optional, but any information you could give us would be helpful.

Submit your application by June 6th. We will inform all applicants of the outcome of the process by June 15, 2008

Please note that there is no pay for this project. All selected applicants must be registered for the conference at the time of application, and they must pay the conference fee in full (unless they have been awarded a scholarship).
