Shoot like the professionals with the Herald's Photos1440 Challenge

THREE briefs will be assigned. Creative and original responses are essential, a deadline must be met, and the results could go out to be judged by the world.
The Photos1440 Challenge is designed to be like the work of photographers at The Sydney Morning Herald, giving entrants to the competition a taste of real life on the job.

Maybe of some interest to a few people -

Not that I will be entering, but for the information of those who might here are the Terms and Conditions referenced from that site as they apply to your work.

Your Material
By uploading, transmitting, posting or otherwise making available any Material via the Fairfax Network, you:

(a) grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, licence to use, reproduce, edit and exploit the Material in any form and for any purpose;

We reserve the right (but have no obligation) to:

review, modify, reformat, reject or remove any Material which you upload, post, transmit or otherwise make available (or attempt to upload, post, transmit or otherwise make available) that, in our opinion, violates the Conditions or otherwise has the potential to harm, endanger or violate the rights of any person; and

Going by the rather, shall we say, less than generous terms and conditions, that would have to be one event that would be best skipped for at least the next two decades.
