Master Classes
One month of exclusive online classes taught by working professionals in the visual effects and games industries.
November 1st - December 1st, 2009
Due to popular demand, we have extended our online Master Classes event! Each 2-3 hour lecture focuses on a different element of the VFX & Games industries in a private forum where the instructors have shared a variety of insights and answers to previous attendee’s questions.

Online, Interactive Classes
The response from both students, professionals and the instructors has been overwhelmingly positive, with everyone very much enjoying the quality of the lectures and feedback given in the private forum. Over forty hours of lectures and pages of Q&A threads between instructors and attendees was a lot of information to process in just two weeks, so act now to experience this limited extension of the experience.
Note: Due to the busy schedules of our instructors, we can no longer guarantee answers to new questions, although there will be limited interaction as many of the instructors have agreed to check-in over the course of the month.
- Each high-def lecture is 2+ hours long and available 24-hours a day, so you can watch them whenever you'd like, as often as you'd like
- One ticket gives you access to all 16 classes, a total of over 40 hours of lecture!
This is a phenomenal value and opportunity to learn from many of the industry’s masters, gain insights into their techniques, experiences, thought processes and workflow. Buy a ticket and get a massive dose of inspiration, motivation and education while sharing the experience with your peers from around the world. Another extension is far from guaranteed, so this is an event that you can’t afford to miss!
