Applications are open for HUAWEI NEXT-IMAGE Awards 2021. The “NEXT” in NEXT-IMAGE refers to the photographers using next-generation tools to create and spread cutting-edge visual content. “IMAGE” refers to both static imageries as well as new forms of dynamic visual expression. HUAWEI proposed the “NEXT-IMAGE” concept not only to highlight the many years of innovation it has brought to the field of visual expression but also to create a concept that represents a new growing school of photography.

HUAWEI NEXT-IMAGE Awards embody Huawei’s dedication to the craft and artistry of modern photography. By equipping aspiring photographers with cutting-edge technology, Huawei hopes to provide the outlet for an outpouring of creative inspiration.
