Categories

HUAWEI encourages participants to explore different perspectives, formats, and light conditions. The contest has 10 distinct categories calling HUAWEI smartphone users to optimize and explore the strengths of their devices, while telling original, compelling stories through photos and videos. 

Portrait – At its best, portrait photography tells rich and compelling human stories better than words ever could. Whether it’s of yourself, of a loved one, or a model, submit your best portrait shots.

Monochrome – Monochrome images remove distracting colours, helping the viewer focus on the subjects, textures, shapes, patterns and composition. Use black and white photography to reflect the atmosphere, fun or originality of the shot.

Colour – HUAWEI smartphones are renowned for their ability to produce vibrant photos that are bursting with vitality. Show your true colours by expressing yourself through smartphone photography.

Snapshot– Photography lets you live in the moment, encouraging you to capture defining moments and scenes. Create a snapshot that tells a powerful story, or immortalize an important memory forever.

Night – Thanks to the power of AI, HUAWEI smartphones capture incredible night scenes without the need for a flash. Get creative, and make a night shot to remember.

Telephoto – For many smartphone users, zoomed-in photos are usually blurry or low quality. That’s not the case with HUAWEI. Use your telephoto lens to home in on the important details and show off the clarity of your zoomed-in shots.

Super Wide Angle – Wide angle lenses allow photographers to get as close to the subject as possible without excluding crucial elements in the background. Use your mobile photography skills to make viewers feel as though they’re viewing the scene with their own eyes rather than through a photograph.

Super Macro – In photography, as in life, the small details are important. Explore different macro photography subjects and techniques, as you show off your camera’s ability to capture tiny details up close. 

Story Creator – Shoot and produce a mobile-shot movie of 15 minutes or less to express your creativity and share your story through moving images. Assume the director’s chair as you create a cinematic masterpiece to show to the world.

Storyteller – Different from the other categories that only allow single photo to be uploaded, in this catalogue, you can use a group of photos (3-9 photos) to express emotions, tell a story, record changes or discover trends.

What about the prizes?

There are 2 levels of prize tiers, 1 for Malaysia, and 1 for Global if you are able to beat everyone else.
