BULLETIN 2 : 2014 2nd Quarter Activities

3/17/2014

 
Officers planning is done. Here are details of our activities for April until July.


APRIL : 50mm Challenge
UP Diliman and Quezon City Circle / April 26 (Saturday)
  • Group leaves Malolos at 8AM. Van will be rented. Each will contribute 160 pesos for the transpo. Attendees can also choose to commute on their own.
  • Only 50mm lens will be used. Strictly 50mm. Aperture opening doesn't matter.
  • Since the challenge is shooting with a 50mm focal length (tight), full-frame cameras will not be allowed. Full-frame users will enjoy an advantage (of going wider because of no crop multiplier).
  • Photowalk in UP. Participants will be given 2 and a half hours to shoot. If we arrive in UP at 9AM, call-time for getting back to starting spot will be 11:30.
  • Group lunch.
  • Shoot in QC Circle after lunch. 2 hours. Then back to the starting spot.


MAY : Focus Summer Fest
The Camp / Sta. Rita, Guiguinto / May 10 (Saturday)
  • Venue is exclusive to Focus. Each attendee to contribute 100 pesos for the venue expense.
  • All members are encouraged to join. This will be our bonding activity.
  • Only official members and applicants who have attended a photomeet will be allowed to join. Official members MAY bring a guest, but it should be your spouse or an official (haha) boyfriend/girlfriend. Limit to 1 per member.
  • Event is 8AM till night. Not overnight. Please arrive on time so we can start the program on time.
  • There will be games and team competition. Dividing members into groups/teams will be on-the-spot. Officers will not join competition but act as hosts and game masters.
  • Bring extra clothes or swimwear. Everyone will get wet (or sweaty).
  • Food will be potluck but on assignment basis. We will provide specific list and members will share for a certain food assignment. This is to minimize expense and avoid excess food.
  • Videoke or alcohol will only be allowed 5PM onwards, once the program and activities are finished.
  • Drivers are strongly discouraged to consume alcohol.

JUNE : Oil & Water Macro Shoot
Bluprint Studio / Malolos / Date to be announced on May 10

  • Shoot will be done in a controlled lighting environment, hence the studio location.
  • Shooting turns will be supervised.
  • Macro lenses will be shared. Those who have macro lenses (or lenses with macro capabilities) are encouraged to share.
  • Macro reverse kits or extenders may be provided. Not yet final.
  • For those who have no idea how to do oil and water photography, don't worry : a demonstration video will be provided. From setup to processing.


JULY : First Anniversary Exhibit and Outreach Project
Robinson's Malolos (tentative) / July 12-13 (Tentative) - Exhibit
Orphanage to be determined / July 19 or 26 (tentative) - Outreach
  • Exhibit will have no theme. Exhibit will feature best photo of each member.
  • Only 1 photo per member. Make it representative of your photography. Make Focus proud.
  • Expenses still to be computed. But most likely, participating members will contribute.
  • All are encouraged to shoot to gather materials for exhibit.
  • Only photos with high resolution will be accepted. Photos will be printed in 10x15 or 8x12 sizes. Ideal size will be 3000x2000 pixels.
  • An Exhibit Committee will be formed to organize the exhibit.

  • Outreach project will take place in an orphanage. Main activity will probably be providing meals and some games.
  • Strictly no cameras and no picture-taking allowed. Only a group shot will be taken. No pictures of feeding the kids or playing with them. So leave cameras at home.
  • Food will most likely be sourced from Jollibee or a fast-food. Expenses will be shared.
  • Bring what you can share to the kids.

More details will be provided as we go along. For now, these will do to give you an idea of what's coming.
