The theme for the 2011 contest, which is now in its 26th year, is 'Senses'. The brief is to capture an image that encapsulates at least one of the five senses – sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch. All images must have been show on one of Fujifilm’s professional films.

The winner will receive £200 worth of Fujifilm, a trophy and a portfolio printed by Genesis Imaging. They will also gain unprecedented access to the printer’s creative director, Mark Foxwell, for one year, and receive a PR package from the promoter awards, WSP Media.

Up to 30 merit winners will each receive 10 rolls of Fujicolour professional colour negative film, and the university or college with the most entries will also win £200 worth of Fujifilm Professional film.

“The Fujifilm Student Awards are a major part of the curriculum for many colleges, and tutors right across Britain see the Awards as pivotal to their students' education, says Gabriel Da Costa, product manager at Fujifilm Professional. “Many of the winners from the previous 25 years have gone on to enjoy successful careers as professional photographers.”

The deadline for entries is the 28 February 2011. Visit www.fujifilmstudentawards.co.uk.
