Aim of IPC

The club’s set objectives are as follows:

1.        For each club member to produce a of body of photographic work during every 12-month cycle. The intention being to present this at the annual Ignite photographic exhibition.

2.        To place community above competition

Meeting Format

An evaluation meeting is to be held on the THIRD Monday of every month, January to November (No meeting in December) and will be in the form of an Image Review

An education meeting is to be held on the SECOND Monday of every month, January to November (No meeting in December)

Image Review Process

Members will be able to enter images via Photovault for evaluation in each month’s Image Review meeting.

We have a single theme/category and ask for your single best image for submission

Education

To promote the development of skills and the creativity of all members.

We will be mainly focused on creative development of self, and of photographic work, in order to identify a creative message to be explored in your personal Body of Work

Member Status

IGNITE PHOTOGRAPHIC CLUB will not differentiate between professional and enthusiast photographers.

There will be no member ranking system within the club. Each year the Ignition Log will reset to zero and members will compete on an even basis in order to attain Photographer of the Year

Newsletter

We aim to publish the IGNITION TIMES every couple of months.

This labour of love is the work of Ockert Vermeulen, our marketing guru!
