The event and the vision:
Dogma48 is about focus. It's about dedicating yourself to one thing exclusively and putting the rest aside. It's about sharing this focus and and this moment too.
Dogma48 is a workshop event in which you're allotted 48 hours to finish a competition level piece of figure art. The point of the event is to recreate the hardcore focus and clear view of priority and direction you get when you're trying to finish a piece just before a contest, but to do so in a safer environment and in a group, so you all share the moment. Sharing is in many ways a very big part of the event, because even as everyone makes their own projects, you share the focus, the deadline, the stress, joy, the highs and the lows. You're working very closely with the people around you and are together immersed into a mindset, a mode of focus. The rest of the participants will help keep you in the mindset, but just as much, you are there for others when they are slipping or getting stuck on their project. The finish line binds us together, but the journey and learning is the important part. Finishing is obviously fantastic, but it is quite common people do not finish but have important and happy takeaways from the event - this is also very much about learning and training
The event starts on Friday at 19:00, and ends 19:00 on the following Sunday. This is the time you have to finish your project. The size of the project however is entirely up to you, you can start with a primed cleaned based figure and just crack open the paints on Friday, or, you can start with some wires and putty and do an entire figure project from start to finish, or anything in between. It al really comes down to how much work you'll want to give yourself to do in this weekend
You can do a surprising amount of work in a fully dedicated weekend, but bear in mind that giving yourself a flexible loose project gives the best experiences and the best learning. If the project is too planned and rigid, you'll miss a lot of the coorporation and insights you wouldn't get in a normal setting. In fact, you'll probably have to change some ideas and some choices along the way. You have to cut away everything that isn't necessary, and only do the things that are important, and you'll learn to know the difference. This really is a thing you learn at this event; to strip away all the things that you don't need to do.
If you want your character to have a robotic arm, you could spend hours carefully crafting a detailed arm in putty and bits - but most of the time some silver paint and some panel lines will do the job just fine in a fraction of the time. Under normal circumstances, you'd do it the way you normally do, but this event makes you try other ideas. Whenever you have doubts, there's always people on hand to help you decide the best course.
