Count me in. Just subscribed. How long does the process take?

Sue Attwood · 3 Jul 2015, 05:59

Great news. Thank you guys!

Kendra Minadeo · 3 Jul 2015, 18:34

So excited! You guys are awesome!

Good Golly Miss Molly!!!
Have you seen the massive collection of videos and classes in the SVS library lately? Everything an artist needs to be making a profit from their work is available there. Some classes selling for $300. My second question. Have you gotten your subscription to the entire library for as little as $9.99 a month? Never have I seen this kind of content for such a fraction of what it is worth. Remember on the 1st of August the price goes up. What are you waiting for? Thanks Will and Jake and all at SVS.

Thank you Steven! We couldn't ask for a better endorsement ...we knew that many of our students just couldn't afford each class separately so this was our answer - we hope it's sustainable - it was a leap of faith

I subscribed immediately! SVS Learn is the best. Thanks so much.

Hey guys, quick technical question - does the streaming video player allow you to manually set the "quality" like in YouTube? My ADSL connection is a bit ordinary and can only just handle 720.

Jake Parker · 7 Jul 2015, 18:03

@Rowan-Ferguson Good question. I don't have an answer, but I can ask our web guy.

Zach Daniek · 7 Jul 2015, 19:45

Amazing! I have taken 4 classes or webinars from Jake and Will - all of them have been fantastic. "10 Steps to Digital Painting" and "Creative Composition" were outstanding and totally convinced me to convert an almost entirely digital workflow. I can't speak highly enough of what a great service you provide to the artistic community and I am so excited to start digging into more courses with the new subscription model.

Rowan Ferguson · 7 Jul 2015, 23:51

@Jake-Parker Thanks Jake. Even if setting the quality explicitly is not supported I suspect the browser would be smart enough to serve a lower res version if the browser window was smaller. I'm going to go ahead and subscribe anyway, but keen to hear what your web guy says.

@Rowan-Ferguson He went camping for the week so I'll have to get back to you next week sometime.

No, I think subscribers can only stream. We get a hefty discount if we want to purchase for permanent download. I think they want to prevent someone from subscribing for only a month and downloading every class and then unsubscribing. It would take months to go through all these videos...not to mention how handy it would be to use as a reference over and over again...

You can download handly pdfs with the class content and practice tasks, so you can use these offline to study. That's a good thing to have after watching classes.

Naroth Kean · 19 Jul 2015, 06:35

Just subscribed and I'm kind of new to the whole community thing, but I'm so excited to learn more. Nice to meet all.

Charlie Eve Ryan · 19 Jul 2015, 15:40

I subscribed the second I heard about it, so so worth it! A fantastic deal!

Shannon Blakeman · 20 Jul 2015, 05:57

Hi I'm hoping to get some technical help. I'd really like to purchase the yearly subscription, but I seem to be having some issues. I'm from outside the U.S., and don't have the required zip code. I have a Canadian postal code, which the system doesn't seem to want to recognize. Is it possible for people outside the US to register? I've been attempting to use my Visa, and the registration page keeps asking me to try again. I know there's no problem with my actual credit card, so I'm wondering if I'm out of luck?

Leontine · 20 Jul 2015, 11:03

@Shannon-Blakeman It shouldn't be a problem, I live in Europe. But as for the technical part I'am sorry I cant Help you. You can Send an E-mail to svslearninfo@gmail.com, Alison will help you sort it out for sure!

Shannon Blakeman · 20 Jul 2015, 16:52

Thank you very much Leontine! I will give the e-mail a try and see if someone can help me. I watched the video critiques on the most recent 3rd Thursday, and learned a ton! I am eager to subscribe by the end of the month : )

Peter Jarvis · 21 Jul 2015, 12:40

This is just amazing. You really know what we need to become successful illustrators. I feel like I have found a place on the internet where I belong. You guys are awesome.

Sean Guzman · 25 Jul 2015, 00:03

The subscription service is fantastic! Even if I have seen a video, I like to repeat it while I'm working, and having access to this wealth of information is wonderful. Thank you!
