Multimedia SIG (11/09/2026)

Mon, 09 Nov 2026 17:00:00 GMT

Multimedia SIG - Mondays at 10 am

Facilitators: Kevin May and Todd Taylor

Location: Large Classroom

Winter: Every Monday @ 10 am

Summer: Every Other Monday*

Bring your videos to life! Share your projects and elevate your work with supportive feedback from your fellow creators. Only at MM SIG!

We will dive into essential techniques like "The Art of the Voiceover," discovering how pacing, tone, and the narrative style can entirely reshape the emotional core of a video or slideshow.

We leave harsh critiques at the door. Instead members present pieces they love and explain their creative intent, the obstacles they overcame, and the editing tools they chose, so we can all learn and find inspiration in each other's journeys.

Besides all of that, we have a lot of fun and laughs, so please join us!

During Winter (November through April) we will meet every Monday in the Large Classroom. There will be no Zoom for these Multimedia SIG meetings, however, meetings will be recorded and placed on our YouTube channel following the meeting.

*During Summer (May through October) we will move to an every other Monday schedule. There will be no Zoom and no YouTube recordings for these meetings. We will be meeting during the "Off" week for discussion and questions, so bring any challenges you may be having and we'll troubleshoot until we have a solution.

In order to participate in this event, you must be a member of the GVR Photography Club and GVR.

Black and White SIG (11/10/2026)

Tue, 10 Nov 2026 16:30:00 GMT

Black & White SIG - Tuesdays @ 9:30 am

Facilitator: Wendell Werner

Location: Ansel Adams Room

Date: Tuesdays at 9:30 am

There will be NO SCHEDULED ZOOM meetings for these sessions, so come on out to the Club and join us!

The Black & White Special Interest Group is a meeting of those club members who enjoy the special qualities of black & white (or more generally called “monochrome”) photography. Members bring their images for viewing and comments by the group.

Discussions on editing techniques, as well as on composition and lighting are also a part of the meeting.

The question might be asked “Why are we interested in black and white images when even the basic point and shoot digital cameras can produce very good color photographs?” The answer is: there are some images which have more visual impact when rendered in black and white. These images are those which use the interplay between light and shadows to emphasize texture or shapes within the composition. An example is shown above.

Typically, the photographs shown at our SIG have been produced as color images in a digital camera and converted to black and white using one or more of the popular photo editing software packages.

Wildlife and Nature SIG (11/11/2026)

Wed, 11 Nov 2026 16:30:00 GMT

Wildlife and Nature SIG Wednesdays @ 9:30am

Facilitators: Craig Zimmerman & Ron Friesz

Location: Large Classroom

Date: Wednesdays @ 9:30 am

Winter Schedule (Oct-April): every Wednesday at 9:30 am

Summer Schedule (May-Sept): first and third Wednesday at 9:30 am

The Wildlife and Nature SIG shares photos with club members that are interested in the great outdoors. Our group ranges from highly skilled photographers to beginners shopping for a camera. Most of us fall somewhere in the middle. Some photos are straight out of the camera while other pics have been edited with great skill.

Our discussions might cover photographic techniques, editing software, cameras and equipment or where to go to get a great shot. We suggest bringing about 5 photos you have taken, on a USB drive in a JPEG format. We ask that you tell the group if you have taken a photo in the wild or at the zoo. The group would also like to know how much editing was done to the photo being shown. You are not required to show photos.

Come join us for some fun! Learn from your fellow club members in a friendly supportive environment. And don't forget to bring some photos to share.

There will be no Zoom meetings.

You must be a member of GVR and the GVR Photography Club to attend this event.

Photoshop/Lightroom SIG (11/11/2026)

Wed, 11 Nov 2026 20:00:00 GMT

Photoshop/Lightroom SIG Wed @ 1 pm

Facilitator: Al Crawford

Location: Large Classroom

Date: Wednesdays @ 1:00 pm

Group Overview and Objectives

The Photoshop/Lightroom Special Interest Group (SIG) is a dedicated forum for photographers, editors, and digital artists who utilize Adobe’s industry-standard photography applications. The primary focus of this group is to explore Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Lightroom Classic, with a specific emphasis on navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) in image processing.

As Adobe continues to integrate machine learning and generative AI into its Creative Cloud ecosystem, this SIG serves as a collaborative environment for members to learn, discuss, and master these new workflows. Sessions are designed to help users transition from traditional editing techniques to modern, AI-assisted methods that enhance creativity and optimize efficiency.

Core Focus Areas

New Feature Exploration
Regular deep dives into the latest software updates for Photoshop and Lightroom Classic. Participants will learn how to implement newly released tools immediately into their post-processing workflows.
AI-Driven Image Processing
Comprehensive demonstrations of Adobe Sensei and Adobe Firefly technologies. Discussions will cover the practical applications of generative tools, including automated object removal, generative expansion, advanced neural filters, and intelligent upscaling.
Workflow Optimization
Strategies for utilizing AI to streamline tedious tasks. This includes leveraging assisted culling features, automated metadata tagging, and smart stacking in Lightroom Classic to drastically reduce the time spent between capture and final output.
Advanced Masking and Selections
Mastering AI-powered masking tools to make precise adjustments. Sessions will cover subject, sky, and background detection, as well as fine-tuned portrait enhancements like facial hair, clothing, and eye adjustments.
Collaborative Problem Solving
Open floor discussions where members can share their own techniques, ask troubleshooting questions, and evaluate the ethical and practical implications of AI in modern photography.

This group is open to all users of Adobe photography applications who wish to stay at the forefront of digital editing technology. Whether you are looking to refine your catalog organization or master advanced generative composites, the Photoshop/Lightroom SIG provides the tools and community support to elevate your craft.
