If you just want information, you can find it anywhere; if you want knowledge, you will find it in our courses.
What does that mean?
It means that information, about a software program for example, is readily found in the manual. The information is (generally) accurate and complete. But reading this information does not make one a master editor, or master at motion graphics. It merely tells one what the various buttons and menus in the program do.
Publishers & training companies publish books and discs of information somewhat like the manual (but usually somewhat less accurate and complete).
So how are DVcreators.net courses 180 degrees opposite from other courses, books and discs?
Because our courses contain knowledge. Knowledge differs from information in that knowledge is presented in a format and context so that the learner deeply understands the knowledge and is able to immediately put it to use in a real world situation.
Mastery of an art is much more than knowing information about how software works, although that is part of it. Mastery is understanding how to utilize the tools (software, or lights) to achieve beauty; to express a mood or feeling; to convey a message that is meaningful to your viewers.

I have recently purchased your entire range of DVD products for RMIT University for whom I work in the multimedia dept.. They are great! In fact for me they are the best out there and light years ahead of much of the competition. The examples are quite progressive and show creativity on hte part of the presenter.
The only problem that I have is that there are not enough products in the range. I would most likely have odered all of your DVD’s at four times the range. Subsequently I had to go to a range of other providers to get the range that I needed for my students. Come on guys how about some more products…
For example: Advanced Motion Particle Effects training Soundtrack Pro Audio Effects Advanced video shooting and production FX Compositing
Let me know when you produce and I will order. I am sure that there are many other teachers in the same boat as myself who don’t have enough time to buld the lesson from scratch and doorknock on the Library dept. and say get me everything you can on this subject. I am going to pass on your details to all of the fellow lecturers in other insitutes where I also work.
Good work, let there be more, Jeremy Fitzpatrick
PS. How about a podcast, that would really open access up to teacher/trainers like myself who are searching for content.
Wow, what a great tutorial. You did a terrific job in making it clear and meaningful. I like your interface and way it was all put together. Great Job. I have to admit that I learned a lot for watching it.
