Take a Photo at the Same Time as the Clock in each of our Micro Episodes.

We are looking for interesting photos and surroundings. You will have to produce the shot yourself. Perhaps you will find that perfect shot! Our judges will make decisions on winners for this category based on your shot's uniqueness and creativity. 

Your 1st entry is Free. You can only enter 1 Free Shot.

There is a Clock embedded into each of the 13 O.D.D. Room Micro Episodes at this link O.D.D. Room LEVEL 3 - YOU ARE TIME.

_____________________________________

Find the CLOCKs

1. Place a CLOCK with the same time as showing in the Micro Episode in a Photo.
 

  • Your photo can be in any medium you like. It can have any surrounding you like (it can even be a selfie). It can also be a painting or other illustration - but it must have a CLOCK with the same time as in the Episode showing. Examples from our ZO Team are below. We have omitted the Episode because your time and the number of the Episode must match. So you will have to investigate. 

 
2. Submit your photo
 

  • Include the Trailer Episode where the TIME you are depicting is found
  • List the City and Country where YOU took the photo (not the city in the Episode)

 
3. You may submit 1 Free Photo
 

  • There are 13 Micro Episodes (you can only enter 1 photo for free)

 
4. Additional photos are $5 per submission
 

  • You can take a photo using the time from any or all of the Micro Episodes. You may enter as many times and as often as you like, but all entries after your 1st entry are $5 each. If you enter without paying for additional entries, all of your submissions will be disqualified.

___________________________________

Enter as many shots as you like. Obviously, it may increase your chances to enter more than once. So, if you only enter 1 shot, take a few with different times and possibly different outfits, then send us your best shot.

We will be looking for and judging based on entries that complement our SciFi storyline. We may even show some of the shots at our Time Traveler's Ball (in September) if they seem to fit.
