All program components are available on one clear page. Lots of interaction, watching, and listening fun guaranteed!
4. Help, I'm not very good with computers. Can I participate?
All you have to do is to log in and you will automatically be taken to the page for which you bought a ticket. On the page, all the program components are neatly and clearly arranged for you. It looks a bit like a Youtube page where you also see the various films, but then in order of the various program parts by means of leaders. And you can enjoy everything.
5. Where do I log in to watch the lectures and live Q&a’s?
We use a separate system to watch the lectures and live Q&a’s. To do this, please use the login information you received by email from us.

Live Q&A with various speakers for which you can register

7. When will the program components be ready for me?
All the lectures are already available for you. Only the live Q&A sessions will follow later and the masterclasses will be organized via Zoom.
Do you follow our live opening? Great because we have been living towards this for months! But then again, it’s up to you. It’s an online event and you can watch everything when you want to do so! You won’t miss a thing when you can’t attend the live opening… The most important things are the inspiring and educational talks 😉
8. What do I need to participate in the Online Festival?
All you need is a working internet connection, TV, tablet, laptop, your phone, a cup of coffee / tea, a nice chair / sofa and of course some tasty snacks! Oh, and it’s all secured. Just like in the theater, your ticket is personal. So only you have access to our exciting program with your ticket. Lots of fun guaranteed!
9. I don't have time during the weekend. Does buying a ticket make sense?
Hell yes. All the lectures can be watched immediately (after receiving your personal login details). All lectures can be viewed a few months after the lectures (including English subtitles if desired. The live Q & As are recorded and can therefore also be viewed. But you can then no longer ask the photographer questions :-).
10. What does a live Q&A entail?
During the live Q&As, ask the question you’ve always wanted to ask. It is of course always useful to watch the lecture of the photographer in question in advance, so that you can ask him / her in-depth questions. You now also have the chance to finally ask your favorite photographer that pressing question you have been dealing with for a while. The speakers are looking forward to the live Q&As. They often give them an energy boost plus a good dose of inspiration!
11. Can I watch the Q&As later?
Of course! The live Q&A sessions are also recorded and you can watch them later. Please note that you can only catch those sessions later that took place on the same date as your ticket purchased.
12. What does the photo review entail?
A professional top photographer will give you feedback on your photos.
How does it work? You digitally send us one or a maximum of two of your images you want to ask about. Or maybe you want to receive tips & tricks. You will receive the instruction after your booking. Your photos will then be discussed in a private group session (with those who have registered for this and anonymous is possible).
The session lasts 3 hours and there is room for a maximum of 25 people. In this session, all submitted images are discussed. The photo coach also edits the images and shows you how a photo can transform. You learn a lot from our top photographers. Especially about the way he looks at the different images of the participants. Viewing and discussing each other’s images is very educational. Provide a webcam and microphone for live interaction.
13. I want to watch with my partner. Is that possible?
Certainly, however, the two of you have to sit behind the TV, laptop, telephone or tablet. Just like in a theater, you pay per person if you want access. In other words, only one person can watch at a time or you can buy two tickets.
14. What kind of system requirements must my computer meet in order to be able to fully enjoy all the program components?
There are no specific requirements, as long as your internet works. The latest version of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox is recommended for this. These browsers are the least likely to have problems at a global level. Do you have a different browser, no problem. In addition to your computer, you can also watch it on your tablet, laptop and even on your phone. The smaller the screen, the less impressive the experience, however ;-). On what device do you usually watch a movie on demand?
15. Oh no, I forgot my login details. What now?
If you have forgotten your password, you can easily change it. You will be automatically redirected to a website for the online event.
16. For some reason I do have problems or need help. What then?
Our team is available every day. And during the festival weekend for any questions or comments. We are also available via chat, email, and telephone. And of course, you can also call or email us before the event. We are available daily.
