[AD2012]

[Ian Barker]

Arrrrrrrrg....... if only I had money I would so be there :|

[Nev87]

how do these classes work. seeing as I am very interested in doing book covers, this class seems like a must. you pay for them then wait for the day then.....? Is it a downloaded movie? is it access to a live discussion and webcam?

They will use live streaming on Saturday, where you can watch Jon work and ask questions... no downloading, but you can re watch until 30 days after Saturday.

[Nev87]

then i am in :)

So, how will we be able to see it via 'On Demand' for the next 30 days or will you be using the new tech?

[Silveraxe]

This is really amazing!!! I'd love to have Jon as my instructor, only if I wasn't broke :/

I actually think it's kinda interesting that you signed up just to thank my post and then copy and paste it into your first and only post. Not quite sure what to make of it.

For anyone who is on the edge about taking this class, do it! Mr Foster is of course an awe-inspiring illustrator, but I took his portfolio review session with Carl Dobsky, and Mr Foster is an amazing teacher with a lot of insight to helping you improve your work.

[Intervain]

I got my code. I love all the classes but I always have to be so selective with which one I'll buy. If only they were 50$ instead of 95 a class then I'd probably buy more... *sigh* - just thought I'd put it out there. Looking forward to Saturday nonetheless.

[BDxCrazyazian]

OMG!!! anyone want to lend me $95?

[Brun]

I would love to attend !!!

Is there any catch for viewers in Europe (will the streaming still work properly, I don't want to pay 95 bucks for a unstable connection)

Can anyone tell me if they have experience with viewing in Europe (i'm in Belgium btw)

Thx in advance !

Worked fine for me. on demand too. Especially with the new class systems!
Im from Norway btw!

[Brun]

@Hive_minD:

Thx for the reply man !!!

[foster]

Hey! Sorry for not being online much that National Geographic illustration is still kicking my butt! But (hopefully) I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel as well as having received some cool new projects, things I will be able to share when in process. I'm looking forward to working with you all and making (hopefully) some good art.

To any of you from BYU Holla! There's allot of talent roaming around on campus.

Jon

[bfowler]

I'm going to try and make this Saturday. Sounds fantastic.

Jon, are you presently (and specifically Sat.) working all digital for your finish work painting or are you using any oil painting and traditional work?

[foster]

This one will be all digital :)

[Serpian]

Damn it.. I will have to catch this on demand...

[Jacki OH]

Just checking I'm not being blind....... is there a link somewhere to buy this yet?

~OH~

[stathis]

The downloadable instructions say: Wednesday, December 5th.... Please correct it to: Saturday, December 5th. Thanks

[bfowler]

How long is this class? I'm on the east coast so it doesn't start for me until 2:00 and I need to know how long to get rid of the wife and kid for.

[Asatira]

Sounds awesome, but I'll have to wait for it on-demand. Can't do it right now, broke.

[Brun]

what is this on-demand thing u guys are talking about ? (sry if I sound stupid --> I kinda am retarded...)

Also if it starts around 11 AM in LA, that means like around 10 pm in europe (brussel) time right ?

I'm not good at figuring things out ;)

thx in advance

After the streaming class is done you have the ability to re-watch it on-demand for 30 days.

As for the time difference you should be able to google that.

http://www.timeanddate.com should let you know what time it is now anywhere else in the world, you should be able to work it out from there ^_^

[TAD Admissions: Scott Richeson]

There is a countdown clock in the store and on the page that hosts the video.
That should help you figure out exactly when you need to be there.
(The clock is best viewed in firefox.)

[Brun]

Thx guys :) now I'm 100 procent certain I'm going to attend :)

[Jason Manley]

[Intervain]

how do we get the extra treats if we already signed up? :)

[bfowler]

Awesome Jason, thanks! I just finished buying this course and I think I'm ready to go. I have to go out and get a microphone though....mmmm. I wonder if my old Xbox headset will work?

Anyway, can't wait for this. See you all tomorrow. Anybody who hasn't signed up yet...what are you waiting for? It's Jon freakin Foster. You have seen his work haven't you? Anybody with a hint of wanting to do cover work sould not miss this.

[maldrin]

I am soooo there. Got my link and password ready! This is the first time I've been able to attend one of these live, and I'm so glad it's one with Jon! Jon, we all really missed you at Reverie here in Texas, and I am so glad to now have a chance to learn from you!

[Kasasagi]

I'm pretty new to this site all in all, and to tell the truth, it's so big that I have no idea what direction is up or down here. :[ While I understand a little bit about the streaming classes, Jason does say that the "Art of Composition" can be downloaded. This tells me that it's available to be bought somewhere, but where? The conceptart shop does not have the composition course available, and I just checked it. I know it was a streaming class, but I did not have the money at the time. Now I do, and would love to pay for the download if I can, but is it available? Or only available for those who 'buy' the bookcover course? Any information is appreciated.

You are right about there being a composition class a while ago, but now they have a downloadable version available. It is in the downloadable section of the site. Here is the direct link to where you can purchase it (http://store.payloadz.com/details/771263-Video-Educational-Jason-Manley-Composition.html). You can purchase this one alone if you like, without the bookcover class.
Hope that was clear, if not give a little shout I'll explain better ;)

[Kasasagi]

Thanks, Hive! Wow, I would have never found that link on my own. I noticed the seller is MassiveBlack, should I have looked in their store first perhaps? I know the two companies have a heck of a lot of overlap, which is why this site is a bit confusing sometimes. Nothing wrong with that, just takes a bit of getting used to it. :) Okay, just to make sure, for a measly 30 bucks I get a 3-HOUR program? Sounds almost too good to be true..!

[Kitten Poker]

how do we get the extra treats if we already signed up? :)

I second that question ^_^

[Jason Manley]

yep you do

[mustang_sally]

o wow i'm speechless this looks just so beautiful!

[SuperJMan]

okay so i got my confirm e-mail for this thing but i am not seeing a place to put my Card or Account Number through the link i received in the e-mail. Am i going off the wrong link?

[Hive_minD]

No problem mate ;)
Yeah right now the golden rule is: DVDs and Downloads are "via" Massive Black, and streaming classes via CA ;)

[Brun]

Just a few more hours :), can't wait for this one !!!

[Benjaminba]

okay so i got my confirm e-mail for this thing but i am not seeing a place to put my Card or Account Number through the link i received in the e-mail. Am i going off the wrong link?

Mine says "this order is pending review" at the top of the status page. Don't know how long that'll take, but I guess the download will be ready before the class. I hope so, anyway. :p

[scottdaly]

I was also wondering how we could get the free download if we already purchased the workshop :)

[Nev87]

I am constantly getting lost around this place and now I find out I get a free download with the purchase of this class. The #2 question(#1 being why would anyone miss this class) seems to be where do we go to receive our free download? :)

[ccp85]

I Buyed right now the class, so I hope to learn a lot here, with my Concept Art's fellows, I hope all will be allright with my conexion, I'm from Spain so maybe is slow, I will try anyway...I downloaded the software Elluminate Live for Chatting and see..Is there the show? You click the link and automaicallly Go up the sofware? I hope I'm right, otherwise I 'll miss cause the firt time that I buyed one....

[ccp85]

Where I need to go for downloading the video Art od composition of Jason MAnley that you can acces for free if you buy this live event? Thanks

[boredomsketch]

It seems i wont be watching this live...

[SuperJMan]

[Benjaminba]

Got it! Thanks so much to whoever fixed this for us. :yayca:

[TAD Admissions: Scott Richeson]

[bfowler]

That was so awesome. I'll post a review after I let my brain decompress a little.

A mod on the chat said that everyone will get an email concerning their free download. Make sure to check you spam filter.

[CRMB]

Just finished watching. Awesome lecture. Get it On demand if you missed it.

[Nev87]

I thoroughly enjoyed my first live streaming class :) I am also excited by the fact that it was a 2 for 1 deal so I get a 2nd one(but i guess it wont be live, oh well).

[lordbiernac]

Yeah, definitely the best lecture that I've seen so far... Jon (and George Pratt on the chat) pretty much reminded me what are the most important aspects of being an artist, things that I almost forgot while doing all the "shiny" commercial artwork... I've got much to think about now... Also getting to know Jons process was very interesting.
I think I'll watch it on demand like a 100 times ;)

Thanks a lot for this lecture Jon and huge thanks to George for sharing his knowledge on the chat!!!

[BAMartin]

I have to agree, this was an excellent lecture - a lot of info!

Many thanks CA and Jon!

britt

[Jason Manley]

Thank you Jon!!! Great work. I really appreciate the time and effort. I will be pushing this through some other channels to be sure it gets out in the world. This is a real opportunity for everyone and I am thankful for your participation. I remember speeding down to comicon and being nervous to ask you to join us on CA and back then I had no idea we would ever see this kinda stuff. Thanks a lot. Really. CA would not be the same without your support.

[Nev87]

I uh......am at a loss of which included video to watch...a little help would be appreciated from anyone who has seen:

Art of Composition Download
Zhanglu and Jason Manley Portraits Vol. 2: Asian Males
ZhangLu and Jason Manley Portraits Vol 1: Asian Females
The Business of Art 1: Negotiation and NDA's featuring Jeff Makoff and Jason Manley

I know they are ALL awesome. But i feel i am not qualified to make this decision. My head will explode from shear awesomeness

Art of Business contains a huge amount of info VERY usefull if you want to work safer in the business, but the compositin one has to be my choice of the day- a lot of the things Jason talk about make sense or you have heard people hint at it, but never like this, not so complete and not in such depth. Haven't gone through all of it yet, the crash course is next...

So in short- Pick the composition one, you win on that one!

[boredomsketch]

Amazing!
My first live class here on CA and it was awesome!
I'm rewatching right now.

I do have a question, how do we get the video we choose? i've already emailed back with the one i choosed.


:)

[Brun]

I got the mail, but am I suposse to send a mail back in which i ask for the one i want ?
