Sign Up For Online Mixed Media Classes
Note:
The next session for both classes is now full. I will be teaching them again starting in September 2008. Please sign up for my online class mailing list to have first chance at signing up for the next session.
General Class Info:
All classes will be conducted via a private blog where all materials for the class will be posted.....supply list, step by step PDF lesson notes, and high quality videos showing how I use each of the techniques we'll be covering. The class videos will not be hosted on YouTube because of their file size limits, so this enables me to make larger sized videos with a better quality picture and you will need a high speed internet connection in order to view them properly.
I have also set up a Flickr group for class members only that has a private discussion area. Plus, there will be a scheduled live Q & A chat on the class blog each week. Time and date of live chats will be dependent on what works for the class participants overall. Participation in the Flickr group and live chats are encouraged for the full class experience, but are not required. There will be transcripts of the live chats available for those unable to attend.
Once I have received your payment, about two weeks before the class
starts I will contact all class members
with the blog username/password and an invitation to the Flickr group.
You will then be able to access the class blog where the full supply list
for the class will be posted. A new assignment along with a video demo will be posted each Monday for you to view any time during the class. Each video lesson will be 10-25 minutes in length and will require anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours for you to complete the weekly assignments. It's totally up to you how much time you spend. :)
Please do not share the usernames/passwords or class materials with anyone. They are for paid class members only. All class materials/videos are property of Paulette Insall © 2008.
Payments:I am accepting payment of class fees via PayPal (Most credit cards are accepted with this method. You do not have to have a PayPal account to pay via PayPal), Visa or Mastercard by phone, or USPS money order. The last two options are reserved for U.S. residents only. Even though these are online classes, I am limiting the class sizes because I can only handle so many students per class.
Refunds:
Class fee is fully refundable until the day before a class starts. Once the class starts, no refunds will be offered.
