I goofed on the webinar

Hi 

Except for one tiny little thing... the webinar yesterday rocked
!!! 

We had a great group of people. We had fun with polls. I shared "Jim's See Saw of Exposure" and "The 4 Questions", tools that will take your photography skills to the next level.

The goof???

Only the audio recorded for the first 7 minutes!

Here's a recording of the webinar

So the beginning is entirely audio (no video)... hang in there when you hear my voice but see nothing... the visuals show up 7 minutes in.

During that first 7 minutes, the only visual that matters is our first poll. I asked people about their skill level and the results were roughly:

Total beginner - 3%
Recently learned the basics - 14%
Serious Hobbyist - 59%
Advanced - 21%
Teacher - 3%

Other than that, it's just me talking and, if you can bear with it, the audio is all you need for that first 7 minutes.

Click here to check the webinar out.

Enjoy and THANK YOU,

Jim Miotke
Founder, BetterPhoto.com, Inc.

P.S. On the webinar, 
I announced the start of our Holiday Thank You Sale on courses. Get $20 off any self-paced course. Learn entirely at your own pace, access the course materials anytime during the next year. You can download and watch the "Show Me How" videos from multiple computers and use the PDF workbook to better understand the principles and techniques you gain.

Enter ThankYou2013 into the Gift Card Code field on the checkout page and you will see your discount on the next page.


P.P.S. This Holiday Thank You Sale will end Tuesday, December 3rd.

P.P.P.S. Sign up today and get a special BONUS! Get one-on-one answers to your questions as you learn. I will be actively monitoring the forum for each class for the next 30-days, to answer any photography questions you might have.


P.P.P.P.S. Know someone who might benefit? Invite them to visit BetterPhoto.com and enter their email if they want free tips, and encourage them to join me in a course. Feel free to share the special discount code ThankYou2013. I appreciate your word of mouth and thank you for sharing the opportunity with your photography friends, especially while our Holiday Sale is happening... during the next few days.

Articles by BetterPhoto Instructors...

Two subjects, a wide aperture and a telephoto focal length all add up to a very narrow DOF. In this BetterPhoto article, Jim Zuckerman offers an excellent solution! Read Peter Burian's article on why you should calibrate your computer monitor.
