Tuesday 14 June 2011, Take a Camera to Work


ASNT members, imagine in a single day all the possible types of NDT activities that are happening. What if we could record that day in photographs and film clips? ASNT wants to see the story, your story, in images from your workday. Members take your cameras to work, shoot pictures to start telling the story of NDT in pictures.
How many industries and types of applications of methods are in use around the world in a single day? In how many places is pipeline being inspected? Are new airplanes being manufactured? Is a high rise building constructed? Is a 60 year old suspension bridge being tested? Is a new racing wheel being manufactured? Are aging aircraft being inspected? Is research on acoustic emission evaluation of concrete culverts being pursued? What type of NDT do you do at work every day? ASNT wants to see your NDT story in photographs and video/film.

The Society will use this material on the ASNT Web site, in NDT informational pieces and in promotional material about ASNT’s programs, products and services.

Ideas for photo and film:

  • Show and tell us why ASNT is important to your career and your work in NDT.
  • Show and tell us what type of NDT you use and why it’s effective for finding potential flaws, cracks…
  • Show and tell us what industry you’re in and why your work is interesting.
  • Show and tell us why your work is important to public safety.
  • Show and tell us what type of technology you use.
  • Show and tell us why a young person might consider a career in NDT/NDE.
On Tuesday 14 June 2011, take a camera to work and shoot some images. Don’t shoot just the equipment you use. We want to see you, our members, and people you work with in action. Over the course of one 24 hour period, imagine the range of NDT work that is taking place.

Help ASNT to tell the NDT story in photographs. Take a camera to work and shoot some stills or take some footage. Tell us the story of your day.

One extra bit of business. For ASNT to be able to use your photos and film files, you’ll need to submit a signed photo release form giving ASNT the right to use the material. Download the Marketing Communications Photography Release Form. Identify the people in the photos or footage and explain what is happening. Please sign off and send your digital files* or prints to Paul Conley at ASNT by 8 July. You can also mail photos to ASNT, attention Paul Conley, 1711 Arlingate Lane, Columbus Ohio, 43228.

Can you imagine the story these photos and film/video clips can tell? Of course the story won’t be complete without yours.
