Stegoceras Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 I believe it's time for me to become more knowledgeable about making grand reviews, I would very much like to join the academy. Quote
Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted December 28, 2010 Author Eurobricks Emperor Posted December 28, 2010 After receiving a very sufficient camera I can finally produce good reviews. I would like to rejoin the RA. Granted! i have trouble with adding picks and need help with that i am working on a review and cant post all my pictures i got one but thats all This thread is not the place to asks such questions as it's purpose is to ask access to the reviewers academy. Please note that we are an adult community and using proper punctuation/capitalization is mandatory! I believe it's time for me to become more knowledgeable about making grand reviews, I would very much like to join the academy. Granted! Quote
sinjid Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) I have written a review it could be a lot better so I wish to hone my skills and become a master of the trade so I humbly request that you permit me to be a member of RA. Edited December 29, 2010 by sinjid Quote
Henchmen4Hire Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) Howdy guys, I was wondering, if I post reviews that aren't in your format (I don't like it, sorry x_X) am I gonna get yelled at? Edited December 29, 2010 by DrNightmare Quote

Henchmen4Hire Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Thank you! :) I can appreciate the amount of work you guys put into the reviews (I do it for other products), but I just wanna have fun with my LEGOs and not make it feel so much like work Quote
Iysk Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) Is this where I ask to make a review? I bought a set that no one has reviewed yet. Is that okay, even if I'm a Vassal? EDIT: I have access to a good camera, but I'm only decent at writing. This is the set http://shop.lego.com/ByTheme/Product.aspx?p=5765&cn=348 So I need anything before doing this? I understand that most reviews have an opening, end, build process, piece count, random instruction page, personal ratings, and opinionated commentary. Am I forgetting something?

This thread is open to Eurobricks Members who are interested to join the Reviewers Academy which could be able to aid you to help you to learn in writing and presenting a good review in Eurobricks. If you are requested and keen to learn, and also met the required conditions in the first post, let me know your interest. Either Bonaparte or myself will come in and grant your access. Quote
Emperor Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) After several months of just reading reviews, I guess it's time to learn how to write them; I would very much like to become a member of the academy Edited January 2, 2011 by Emperor Quote
Supersonic Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 I'd like to join, too. I've written reviews in the past, but I'm sure I can do better and I'd love some professional help. Quote

Stardusty Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 I would like to join Reviewers Academy. I've seen so many good reviews here made by RA members and I would like to learn how to do it. =) You must have at least 3 complete sets (including instructions, box is not a must). These sets can be old or new. I have exactly 5 complete sets with box and instructions. You must have a decent camera (no webcam) and know how to move pictures from the camera to your PC. Well, I have 3.2 mpx camera. I don't know is it decent, but I can make good pictures with it. And I have one small three-legged thing that holds camera. And yes, I know how to move pictures from camera to PC. You must have enough time to follow the courses and work on your own reviews. I have to much free time. You must be motivated to learn how to make the best possible LEGO set reviews. I am really motivated and I'll do my best. If it is needed, I can make a review of 8095 for example, I bought it before three days. It stands on my desk and only one sticker is applied (medical droid). I've keeped original bags with numbers and everything. Instructions are in perfect condition. Well, I am going to make it even if I don't need, I would like to have something to start. So, can I enter Reviewers Academy? Quote

Iysk Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 You must have at least 3 complete sets (including instructions, box is not a must). These sets can be old or new. Have more than that (Currently 4 Glatorian Legends, Camper, Buzz Lightyear Ship, and a couple more), but does that mean I have to reviews of sets people already did? You must have a decent camera (no webcam) and know how to move pictures from the camera to your PC. 12 megapixels, and I know how to transfer via MircoSD. You must have enough time to follow the courses and work on your own reviews. I'm not too sure what this means. If it is asking the process in making one, then I do (before school starts anyway). You must be motivated to learn how to make the best possible LEGO set reviews. I'd like to get better at writing in general, so yeah. Just wondering... Do I need to join this to make reviews or is this sort of a tutoring thing to become part of a group? Quote
WhiteFang Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Let me try and address your questions one by one. First of all, this topic is open to all Eurobricks members who are interested in reviewing and will like to acquire and learn the art and knowledge of reviewing from our Reviewers Academy Teachers. It is not a compulsory program for any members who are keen to review to first opt for this program before start to review on Eurobricks. You may choose to review it on your own accord by posting in a neatly organised format that must be abide by our site guidelines. You may also choose to continue the program at a later stage or withdraw if you find it unsuitable. Just drop a note to me or inside the academy. Have more than that (Currently 4 Glatorian Legends, Camper, Buzz Lightyear Ship, and a couple more), but does that mean I have to reviews of sets people already did? You may choose to review sets which have been done by others before. We welcome multiple reviews as long your set is complete. I'm not too sure what this means. If it is asking the process in making one, then I do (before school starts anyway). You need time and patience to pull through this. Do I need to join this to make reviews or is this sort of a tutoring thing to become part of a group? As mentioned above, there is no need to join if you wish to create reviews outside of the Reviewers Academy. The program is meant to teach and guide you on the techniques from our teaching materials and our experiences Teachers. Quote
cambookpro Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Hi! I know I'm a 'n00b' ( :p ) however have an interest in photography and writing. I have about 9 fully built sets, I think with all of them having instructions. 4 have boxes. I also have my iPhone 4 as my camera as it takes better pictures than my 10mpx fujifilm, weirdly. So, yeah, count me in! Quote

So, yeah, count me in! iPhone 4 is a mobile phone and the primary intended purpose is to assume telecommunications capabilities, while its camera is known to be a secondary feature. A full-pledged functional digital camera is required and applicable for your learning by applying it. Quote
