RPS Group – Tuesday 20th September

Join us for the first meeting of the season with an introduction to the distinctions offered by the Royal Photographic Society, including a chance to see a number of recent successful portfolios by Club Members, and the recent fellowship panel from our guest, Eleanor Coate.

If you are interested in raising your photographic game via the RPS routes, which require the submission of a related set of images leading to the award of Licentiate, Associate and Fellowship of the RPS, come along and find out more.

The group provides support in understanding  the requirements the RPS, with helpful critique of your images to ensure they meet the published criteria, and for the two higher levels, how to go about setting your project and the necessary ‘statement of intent’.

We also cover the magic of ‘panelling’, that is how your set of images will fit well together, creating the ‘additional’ image that makes a whole of the parts. This is a skill that will serve you well not just for RPS purposes but also for the Club’s exhibitions and the Print Panel Competition.

The group is led by Lorna Brown FRPS (in Visual Art), and supported by Janey Devine and John Bradshaw, both also Fellows with considerable experience of the RPS distinctions process. Janey is a current  member of both the Travel and Documentary assessment panels and John is a past long-standing member of the Contemporary panel.

We are pleased to once again open this Special Interest group to no-Club Members at a charge of £4
