WANTED: Photos and videos taken during the Democratic National Convention by tourists, Denver residents, bloggers, superdelegates, delegates, staffers, journalists, and activists. Got photos or videos? Format images to 400 x 300 pixels and send them with captions to Rebecca Shapiro at campaigntrail@huffingtonpost.com..
HuffPost's OffTheBus is partnering with USC Annenberg's Center on Communication Leadership and the Institute for Photographic Empowerment to support citizen coverage of the Democratic Convention. Several photo editors will be available around the clock during the Denver DNC to upload and caption photos and videos submitted by Huffington Post readers. Your role is to do your best to document your Convention experience. We want to see the grand and the mundane. Who did you run into in the hotel lobby? What does a caucus look like? What do delegates do in their free time? And what goes down at those late night after parties?
Not attending the conventions? No problem. Whether you attend a rally, community forum, or watch the convention from the comfort of your home, send us your photographs or videos depicting your engagement with the political process.
SUBMISSION: Submit your images, completed slideshows or video footage and editors will post your work here at the Huffington Post. You will be credited for your work. Already posting to your blog or website? Send us the url and we'll take care of the rest.
Again, remember to crop your photos (400x300 pixels) and then send them with captions to campaigntrail AT huffingtonpost.com. Put "Convention photos" in the email subject line. For videos, put "Video" in the subject line. Full guidelines are below. Links to all slideshows will be available here on our photo project homepage.

PUBLISHING TIMELINE: We want to upload your images rapidly so sending them in the correct format is imperative. We will notify you when your images have been published. Please note that correct submission is not a guarantee that your work will be published. This is in no way a reflection of your photography skills but rather a reality of keeping photographs timely to current news events.
Getting published at the Huffington Post does not restrict you from publishing your photos elsewhere. By submitting your photos to us, you give us permission to use your photos as we'd like.
