Meanwhile the headliner of the current FREE to STREAM classes is Art Wolfe’s “The Art of Nature Photography”. The class is 5 hours and 33 hours long and will repeat until Saturday at 11:45am ET.

If you want to watch it from the beginning, the approximate start times are:

+ Friday 11:06pm ET
+ Saturday 4:39am ET
+ Saturday 10:12am ET
+ stream cuts off on Saturday at 11:45am ET

NOTE the above are my calculations, the exact time may be a few minutes off…

PS: for fans of wordplays, note the subtle insertion of Art’s name in the class name 🙂

If you want to scoop up multiple classes on the same topic with a bundle discount, for a limited time, CreativeLIVE is running a 16 bundles for $49 each sale. The bundles include Outdoor Photography (five classes, including Art Wolfe’s), Adobe Bootcamp (LR, CC, Premiere), Lighting (five classes), Food photography (five classes), Compositing (six classes), headshots (six classes), DIY photography and lighting (six classes), Night Photography (five classes) and more…

But that’s not all. There are also instructor-centric bundles. The Ben Willmore bundle (26 classes, yes twenty six classes), Sue Bryce (16 classes), Brooke Shaden (seven classes) and more…

Good until Wednesday at 11:45am eastern, CreativeLIVE is live-streaming for FREE vincent Laforet’s “HD-DSLR: From Stills to Video” class with a runtime of 17 and a half hours. This means the class will air once in full, and once partially. The second airing will begin around 5:30am eastern on Wednesday but will not complete because the ON-AIR Schedule (the free to stream classes) changes the free-streaming rotation at 12pm eastern daily…

Spring is in the air, and outdoor photography is calling [quarantine aside]. To sale-a-brate spring, Creative LIVE is running an Outdoor Photography sale with select classes offered for $14 to $29 each. IF you see a higher price, go to the individual class page where it may automatically drop to the sale price.

The sale includes the “Photographing America’s National Parks” class (16.5 hours) with Ian Shive for $14.

And as fate would have it, starting at 12pm eastern today, Monday 4/20/20, is the FREE-to-STREAM “The Art Of Photographing Birds” class with Frans Lanting. The class is 5 hours and seven minutes long and will repeat for about 24 hours, until about 11:45am ET on Tuesday.

PRO TIP: because the classes repeat immediately during the 24 hour cycle, barring any technical issues and such, you can easily calculate the next start times. For example:
+ 12pm ET starts, 5:07pm ET ends Monday
+ next viewing ends 10:14pm ET Monday
+ next viewing ends 3:21am ET Tue
+ next viewing ends 8:28am ET Tue
+ last partial viewing, ends 11:45am ET Tue

So let’s say you catch the first two hours when it begins at 12pm ET, and then you are busy. You can do the math above, add 2 hours to the number, and that’s when you can continue watching it. If you’ve programmed a VCR before, you have been preparing all your life for this task 🙂
