Light Chasers

A photography club’s contest and gallery, rebuilt as an immersive, multi-role platform.

The problem

A photography club ran its contests by hand: submissions collected through Facebook posts, judge nominations tracked and deduplicated manually, scoring tallied by a volunteer, and winners released with no repeatable process or audit trail.

The application

Light Chasers gives members, judges, and admins each a purpose-built flow, so the contest's own rules are enforced by the system instead of remembered by whoever is running it that month.

Key capabilities

Immersive 3D virtual gallery where visitors walk the exhibition, view winning photographs up close, and see who else is visiting
Guided member submission flow with a shared daily allowance
Independent, locked judge nominations with automatic overlap handling
Two final-judging modes: private scored review or live admin-led consensus
Advanced image viewer with zoom, pan, and histogram for close judging
Admin-configurable contest rules and identity/anonymity policy
Explicit, cancelable release step for winner notification

Capability proven

What this demonstrates

The workflow, role permissions, and business logic are fully built and functional — this reflects a working system, not a mockup. The visual palette shown here is a placeholder; final branding is a separate, later step.

About the demo

This is a private, login-protected application, so there isn't a public live-demo link. The screenshots are captured from an isolated visual-review build; the current color palette and certificate design are placeholders, not final branding.

See it in action

Walk the virtual gallery, then see the nominations and judging workflow behind it.

Does your organization run something by hand that has outgrown spreadsheets and social posts?

A role-based application can enforce your own rules automatically and take the manual coordination burden off whoever is stuck doing it.
