internationally INSPIRED event Q & A

hi everyone!

i know i haven't been blogging as regularly lately...but just give me till this weekend and i promise i will be back at it again.

the good news is, i have been the "good-kind" of busy...launching a new website, moving into the NEW STUDIO this weekend and i have just come back from CHA and the release of my new product line (which should be shipping in a couple weeks)

in addition we also launched my NEW EVENT series internationally inspired before heading out to CHA and i have gotten a lot of questions about the new workshop and i thought if a few of you emailing me had questions most likely many of you are wondering the same things...

so i thought a little Q & A would be...FUN!

i will start with the ones i have gotten and then feel free to add any ones i haven't addressed in the comments.

here goes...

Q - when does the workshop start?

A - immediately, registration is open and you can sign up right now. Just like all of my online classes, internationally INSPIRED workshop is completely downloadable & self paced. this video workshop includes a 1.5-2 hour video from each of the 5 of the featured artists, project photos and full supply lists.

Q - how long will the classroom/workshops be accessible?

A - this is a 2 part answer. technically we plan to allow access to the classroom for the next 6 months. in the virtual classroom we will offer a streaming video option so that you can watch the video just by accessing the classroom alone. HOWEVER, we are also providing a link to allow the students to download each of teachers individual videos to their computers directly, therefore, making the video yours and available to watch FOREVER. so that said you could download all 5 videos to your computer, watch them anytime and they NEVER EXPIRE.

Q - how do i gain access to the classroom?

A - after purchasing the workshop you will immediately be emailed the link to download the workshop pdf. the pdf contains your unique link access to the classroom.

Q - i can only see donna's video, how do i access the other artists videos?

A - because i am the first artist listed, my video appears on the classroom landing page first. you can access each artists video, supplies list, bio, email and video download by simply clicking on each artists icon photo. (see image below of classroom and artist icon links)

Q - i can only see half the video when i push play and i cannot stop or pause the video once i push play. what am i doing wrong?

A - no worries, just use the scroll bar to the right side of the classroom page to scroll down a bit so that the whole video is on your screen. the large video image will appear partially below your viewing space when you enter the classroom. once you scroll down you will be able to view the whole video and the play/stop/pause button at the bottom left. (see image below)

Q - how do i download the video?

A - to the bottom right of each artist video you will see an orange download link, simply click the link and download to your computer and it is yours FOREVER! (see above photo)

Q - the workshop states there is a supplies list for each artist's workshop, are there more supplies used than just whats in the kit?

A - yes. each artist was sent the same core kit of supplies (see here **KITS have sold out but you can still purchase each individual product here) and were asked to use every item in the kit in some way in their project. However, they were not limited to the supplies in the kit...meaning they were allowed to use any other products they wanted in addition to the kit supplies and that list of additional products is included also as a downloadable link below the video.

Q - do i need to buy the kit to take the workshop?

A - absolutely not. the workshop can stand alone and is FILLED with dozens of cool techniques, product tricks and innovative & creative ideas from a hand-picked group of incredibly talented artists. Apply the techniques to the products in your own personal stash, create your own book or buy the kit and make one along side the artists, the choice is up to you.

Q - can i pick and choose products from the kit i would like to buy? can i buy multiples of certain products?

A - yes. we have made the kit available to make it easy for those that wanted to "one-stop-shop", however, we sell all the products in the kit in our shop on our website and you can pick and choose the quantity and the individual products you would like to use.

here's a little video intro about the workshop...

your not going to want to miss creating along side these incredible artists and wealth of techniques and insight shared in this workshop...

The new Internationally Inspired is fabulous! I am enjoying every minute of it so far. Full of fun. Thanks for the Q&A today.

Donna, I signed up on the first day you launched this and I never received an email with login details. I also ordered the kit, but haven't received any word on that. Can you help me out here?

I stand corrected. I just looked at the receipt I have from you and it does have the option to "download" the video. Thank you! Now I'll just wait for my supplies to be delivered:)

Just watched DD Video. I am just blown away. Loved every minute of this. So easy to follow. The answered questions addressed all my problems, seeing the video full screen, the scroll stuff. I just watched the little video placement and couldn't see the bottom stuff. All that aside, I loved, loved, loved it. I am so excited to watch the rest. Thank you so much for offering this artistic goodness! Hugs, Twila

Signed up for this as soon as it was available and have been loving all the great tutorials from all the talented artists! Thanks so much for the opportunity to 'look in on' the creative process of people I probably wouldn't get to see any other way from around the world. It's so cool to be able to watch on the iPad, too, and take it right into the studio with me! Thanks, Donna, for this opportunity, and hope you do more of this in the future!

That's really cool that there willing to share their creative process with us. Your right that is really a great opportunity for us. I love how each artist approaches art in a different way. You can learn a lot as a artist from other artists
