In-Stock Alert: David Lynch class at Masterclass

This may be our first ever in-stock alert for a …class! David Lynch has just launched a class on creativity and film-making at the Masterclass website. You have two options at Masterpass, you can sign up for a 1-year prepaid all-you-can-eat Netflix-style plan for $200 (comes out to about $17 per month) OR you can digitally-purchase the individual class for $100.

As a refresher, here’s Lynch’s Filmography. In addition to various critically-acclaimed films (including “The Elephant Man”) and the Twin Peaks TV phenomenon, he also made a few music videos, including the pop popcorn “Wicked Game” with Chris Issak.

CreativeLIVE Buy More, Save More Coupon Promotion: including $75 off purchases of $150+

For a limited time, CreativeLIVE is running a site-wide coupon promotion of the “Buy More, Save More” kind. Your order total determines the coupon amount and the discount you get.

The best discount is $75 off purchases of $150+. Strategically this is great for classes that rarely get discounted.

Pictures are indeed worth 1,000 blog-words, so here’s a screenshot crop of the relevant part, that way it removes the risk of me mistyping the coupon codes 🙂

60% off Stacksocial courses with coupon

For a limited time, coupon code PREZDAY60 gets you a 60% off discount on classes and courses at the Stacksocial website. The physical goods (eg consumer electronics) are NOT eligible for the coupon for obvious reasons. If you are not sure whether something would qualify, their shopping cart is the ultimate decider. I believe a Stacksocial account is needed to test the coupon in their shopping cart.

For physical goods and such, coupon code PREZDAY15 gets you 15% off those eligible products. Again, their shopping cart is the ultimate decider…

Wedding photography classes sale at C-LIVE

It’s never too late to be preparing for wedding photography season, since rumor has it people get married all around the year 😉 Which brings us to the latest Creative LIVE sale, it is a Wedding Photography sale with the discount amounts varying by class. The price you see is the price you pay.

The sale includes classes from well-known photographers like Lindsay Adler, Robert Lim, Jasmin Star, Jirsa, Cincota and more. Topics cover most aspects of wedding photography but they also have more all-around classes like a “Bootcamp” and a “30 Days” class. There are many classes there, so many there are TWO pages of search results at the aforelinked page.

Speaking of weddings, the 2019 WPPI trade show tips off on February 25 in Las Vegas. Check the trade show calendar for the planned 2019 action…

I am too working on a wedding photography class, it’s a very niche topic but something I believe no one has paid attention to, “Wedding Photography with WebCams for couples married by an internet priest” 🙂
