The Photography Chat Room International Club (PCRIC) is in its 8th year of pushing to deliver knowledge and a opportunity for young and professional photographers to network and build a solid connection, in turn moving the African photography space forward.
The PCRIC Conference is an annual convergence of photo/film enthusiasts and professionals to converse, learn, network and plot paths to forward the Nigerian Photography industry. This year’s conference, themed “PROFIT DRIVEN MINDSET”, aims to address a common challenge faced by creative professionals: the need for comprehensive business knowledge.
In today’s competitive landscape, many individuals venture into creative businesses without a thorough understanding of sound business practices. The PCRIC is aiming to use this year’s conference committed to bridging this knowledge gap by equipping attendees with the skills and insights required to effectively manage their enterprises and ensure profitability.
More than just a gathering of like-minded photographers, the PCRIC Conference signifies a dedication to training, development, and empowerment of creative artists. Over the years, the conference has delivered comprehensive guidance in various aspects of photography, covering camera techniques, pricing strategies, and the fundamentals of filmmaking. Sessions cater to individuals of all proficiency levels, from beginners exploring architectural, portrait, travel, street, studio, abstract, and nighttime photography to advanced or intermediate practitioners and amateur enthusiasts.
By participating in the PCRIC Conference, attendees gain access to expertise and experiences shared by industry experts, expanding their artistic horizons and fostering professional growth.
