Small Group Discussion: Serious Feedback

November 7, 2012 · 7:00 PM
C'ville Coffee

This event is open to all CPI Supporters (paid members).

This session will be for the photographers who are more serious about their work, and interested in serious feedback. The group discussion will be pointed and directed, and while not harsh or mean-spirited, the purpose will be to provide constructive criticism geared toward improvement. Beginners and experienced are welcome to attend, anyone looking for serious feedback.

How Small Group works

Small Group Discussion (SGD) is a way for us to receive specific feedback on our photography and discuss the photography of others. This is a great way to have a conversation that you want to have about your work, and see and learn more about the work of others.

This event is for any photographer who has some recent photographs they'd like to discuss. We'll break up into groups of about 4-5 and each member will present one of their photographs to their group. After a few minutes of discussion on that photo, the next person in the group will present their image and we'll continue round-robin style until everyone has had a chance to present. Before the meet-up I'll create an album where you should upload 3 photographs you'd like to discuss. If anyone has a laptop they can bring to the meet-up, please bring it. The more laptops we have the better.

If you have any questions, please let us know in the comments.

If you are unsure if you can make it to this event, please RSVP No. If you RSVP Yes, be sure to follow through with your reservation and arrive at the designated time and location. Please annotate any changes to your attendance as soon as possible through the event page.

I really enjoyed the feedback of this group. It was great to hear/learn about different techniques and also get input on how a photo could be improved.

Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, and from the pieces of conversation that I heard, folks were offering good constructive criticism.

Great feedback and great photos. My only con is that 2 hours on a mid week night was too long

Image file size must be less than 10MB, otherwise that's the only limitation.
