About the review レビューについて

Reviews are 20 minutes long with a 10 minute break in between. If your application is successful, every effort will be made during the allocation process to match your preferences. In principle, we aim to allocate you at least one of your preferred reviewers. For example, if you select 3 reviews you will be matched with at least one of your preferences. If you select 5 reviews then you will be matched with at least 2 of your preferences. The remaining Reviewers will be assigned by recommendation of KYOTOGRAPHIE.

Please note that it is a prerequisite that participants are available to attend the review over the three days. Thank you for your understanding.

KYOTOGRAPHIE will have a handful of volunteer interpreters on site, however we will not arrange any preparatory meetings between reviewees and interpreters and these interpreters are not professionals. For the best result, we strongly recommend that those who may need interpreters for their review sessions organize this themselves. However, if you require a KYOTOGRAPHIE interpreter please let us know in the application form.
