Žirija bo izmed poslanih del izbrala 40 portfeljev, ki jih bo ocenila. Rezultati bodo objavljeni na spletni strani festivala, do 23. maja 2014 pa jih bo po e-pošti prejelo tudi 40 izbranih fotografov.

Drugi korak – ocenjevanje portfeljev (portfolio reviews)
Ocenjevanja portfeljev so odlična priložnost za predstavitev dela vplivnim članom mednarodne fotografske skupnosti. To je pomemben trenutek za kritično diskusijo o projektu v individualnem – iz oči v oči – srečanju s strokovnjaki. Fotografi prejmejo kritične pripombe in napotke v zvezi z svojimi portfelji, kar predstavlja neprecenljiv feedback za njihov nadaljnji razvoj in širitev profesionalne mreže.

Za sodelovanje v drugem krogu mora 40 izbranih fotografov/umetnikov do 31. maja plačati znesek v višini 40 eur na spodnji bančni račun:
