What is CreatorCamp?
You can read a brief history of CreatorCamp, but here it is in a nutshell: CreatorCamp is about discussing the creation part of creative pursuits whether media (audio and video), fabric arts, cooking, woodworking, photography, sculpture, painting, poetry, stories, books, etc... We think you get the idea. The hope is that each creative pursuit can learn from the approach used by others for completely unrelated creative pursuits (e.g. a quilter might learn new storytelling ideas from a cartoonist).
We have one organizing principle... sessions MUST be about creating something (and by CREATING, we don’t mean revenue, audience, market share, connections, Twitter-followers).
Otherwise, the rules are pretty much the same as any other "camp" event.
- Create an event YOU would like to attend
- All attendees must be treated equally and be allowed to participate (subject to limitations of physical space).
- All content created must be released under a Creative Commons license
- All sessions must obey the Law of 2 Feet (if you're not getting what you want out of the session, you can and should quietly walk out and do something else)
- The financials of a CreatorCamp must be fully disclosed in an open ledger, except for any donor/sponsor who wishes to remain anonymous.
Want to help?
Of course you do - This is a no-frills event, we're not actively looking for sponsors. There are still plenty of ways to help:
- Help spread the word (Blog it, tweet it, do whatever it is you do)
- Look at the event page for your city, look for opportunities to help there.
- Don't see an event for your city? Start one!
