--- ⋆ ꧁ [ ♚ ] ꧂ ⋆ --- [ ⚚ ] ⌜ INTRO ⌟ Can you believe it? We've made it to the one-year anniversary of SPC! It feels as if SPC has grown a lot since August 2025, and we're all thrilled to see you! Of course, with new sessions come new leaders! SPC leader applications for the August 2026 session are open! If you'd like to apply for leader, please be sure to read through the project and description thoroughly, whether you're a returning camper or newbie, it's always nice to make sure! Any questions can be directed to any of the hosts' profiles or in the comments (hosts are listed in the project and in the credits). If you'd prefer to camp rather than lead, you can ask to be notified for camper signups at any of the hosts' profiles! [ ⚚ ] ⌜ FAQ ⌟ "What is SPC?" SPC stands for Scratch Photography Camp! It is a triannual virtual camp that has sessions in April, August, and December. Campers will set a goal of how many pictures they wish to take during the session, and aim to meet this goal by the end of the session. The goal of the camp is to have more people interested in photography and in improving their skills, and making valuable friendships with eachother! --- "What are the responsibilities of a leader?" Leaders should: - Keep a healthy balance between SPC and real life, and encourage campers to do the same. - Actively plan during the month of preparation before the session. - Oversee the cabin and help campers with anything they may need help with to the best of your ability. - Take responsibility for inviting campers to your cabin, and also updating picture counts as often as possible --- "How do I apply?" Remix this project and answer the questions on the slides in the project! A lot of apps have a "theme" when designing their project, while a theme is not required it would be recommended as creativity is taken into account when selecting leaders. This is mostly just to see your personality, and doesn't have to be anything /too/ crazy. They could just be aesthetic-ified slides since we’ll be needing all the help we can get :D --- "What are the cabins?" Cabins will be the different genres of photography. You can suggest any cabin as long as it fits that theme. The following are some potential cabin ideas: - Nature Photography - Astrophotography - Macro Photography - Architecture Photography - Portrait Photography If you have any other ideas for a cabin, don't be afraid to mention it in your leader app, and there's a chance it'll become a cabin! Note: Cabin name does NOT determine what kind of photography you can take, any photography will count during the session. --- "I don’t have experience in previous camps at all, will this affect my chances?" While having experience with other scratch camps, especially leadership positions, will certainly help your chances, if you show that you would be a great leader, you can still be selected even without experience. Anyone can apply, though it's recommended you have at least a bit of experience in scratch camps so you know what to expect. --- "When is my application due?" Applications will be due by June 20th at 11:59 UTC. However, extensions can be given for a valid reason such as tech issue or unexpected plans. Extensions will have to be requested before apps close, not after. Extensions can be requested on any hosts' profile (in project and credits) or in the comments. Extensions can only be given for up to 24 hours. --- "When will leaders be chosen?” Leaders will be chosen a few days after apps close, and the time taken will likely be rather short due to the fact that we aren’t expecting many applications as this is a smaller camp! --- And that's it! Any other questions can be directed to my profile or in the comments. Can't wait to see any and all applications, and hope to see you as a camper if you're not applying for leader! --- ⋆ ꧁ [ ♚ ] ꧂ ⋆ ---
