Fujifilm USA Explains How You Can Become a Fujifilm Ambassador in 3 Steps and Announces X Photographers Program Changes
Fujifilm USA has just announced a change in their Fujifilm X Photographers program and they included a guide on how to become an official Fujifilm X Photographer.
You can read all the details below. In short:
- Step 1: become a Fujifilm Collaborator
- Step 2: become a Fujifilm Creator
- Step 3: become a Fujifilm X Photographer
Fujifilm will launch a special “creator website” in August 2020, where you can learn more and start your journey to become a Fujifilm X photographer. From 2020 to 2024, you’ll have the opportunity to become a Fujifilm Collaborator first, and then a Fujifilm Creator.
Then, in 2024, Fujifilm Creators can apply to become a Fujifilm X photographer and Fujifilm will select some of them.
Also, the Fujifilm X photographers program will get a 4 years cycle, giving greater opportunities for new talents to have their turn.
But there is more!
Fujifilm will already select 10 new Fujifilm X photographers within October 2020 among the initial group of FUJIFILM Creators.
