Hey, Hot Shot Winners Announced

We wrapped up the first season of Hey, Hot Shot yesterday, and I have to say that the whole process was really fun. I loved working with the very smart (and terribly tasteful) panelists and it was interesting every step of the way. It was also nice to put my web chops to good use when developing the site itself.

The very best part was having a chance to look at all the submissions. Obviously, the photos are front and center, it being a photo competition and all, but the bios and statements of the photographers were fascinating. Well, the very best part so far. I have a feeling that the opening reception for the showcase (which is on May 5th. So soon! eek.) will be terrific. It’s always a huge shift to get images off line and into a gallery space, and I’m really looking forward to seeing the results.

I posted a small item on the gallery blog and I also made a Hey Hot Shot Spring Winners photo set on Flickr.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
