Feedback and Consent
Feedback and Consent
Embedded Files
SCA Artists are a vast group with a diverse range of opinions, goals, and life experiences.
Participants display at events like these for a variety of reasons - learning and teaching ideas and techniques; sharing the results of hours of emotional labor; and a host of other reasons.
Some participants believe Unsolicited Advice is Criticism ALWAYS.
Some believe that by displaying they have given consent to receive feedback.
Some do not need feedback to achieve their goals for display.
Some do not know how to ask for help.
To hopefully simplify matters, we are allowing participants to opt in to a color-coded system that allows them to pick their desired level of feedback. When in doubt, our default policy is "Please Ask and Obtain Consent Before Offering Your Opinion (WHITE)"
