Reminder: Participate in "What's the Hook?"
“What’s The Hook” is a community based photography project designed to document one week in the life of Red Hook, Brooklyn, one of New YorkHead over to What's the Hook for all the info you need. Please participate. Red Hook is changing quickly, and all the photos will be part of an invaluable historical record.
City’s most unique and rapidly changing neighborhoods. Open to locals and visitors alike, “What’s The Hook” encourages photographers of all backgrounds to submit digital images captured during the week of August 12th – 18th. This week has been selected as it begins with Red Hook Old Timer’s Day, an annual event at Red Hook Housing (link to article from B61) that has been going on for more than 30 years.
The images produced during August 12th – 18th will be accessible on a dedicated website soon after the photographs have been submitted, and representative photos will be printed and displayed in a wide variety of Red Hook venues during the Fall and Winter of 2007 – 2008.
“What’s The Hook?” encourages submissions from photographers of all ages, backgrounds, and experience levels. “What’s the Hook?” hopes to feature images from every possible time of day, angle of vantage, and facet of life that exists in Red Hook.
What's the Hook is sponsored in part by the Greater NY Development Fund of the NYC Dept. of Cultural Affairs, administered by the Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC).

A question about this project: the site says, "Keep track of who, what, why, when, where. If you are photographing people try to get names and contact numbers, If you think you will need releases let us know."
However, I couldn't find a link to a copy of a release, an e-mail address or a phone number.
Do you know how to contact the "What's the Hook" folks?
Or, where to find a downloadable standard release form? I'd like to participate if possible.
Im deffinatly going to be participating in this. I go to Red Hook everyday and I already have a few places in mind that I want to photograph.
Im so stoked! I hope at least some of mine make the project!
Update to my earlier post: Standard release forms & instructions on how & when to use them have been added to the site here: http://www.whatsthehook07.com/photographers/
