Yes. We have advanced production equipment and output to all television standards around the world. We encode the media itself, which means we have full control over the quality and reliability of your DVD playing in your particular country. In simple technical terms, we produce DVDs in both NTSC and Pal television standards, and can do any variances of these as required, as well as the more rare standards.

We produce the films in the DVDs ourselves. We have a large professionally built sound proofed film studio, including especially built sets, so we can ensure the quality content for you. It takes many months to produce one film. Our procedure is to ask "What will help people succeed with their work" and we go through an extensive planning stage to make sure those questions are answered by each film. Each film focuses on certain areas of artist's requirements. We understand some aspects of art assistance are not covered by our collection - we'd love to have a seascape instructional film available right now (this is currently in production), and a guide to assisting in watercolours as two examples. Our entertainment films are not designed to assist, they really are for entertainment and inspiration - and we currently have filmed eighteen paintings to add to our entertainment collection.

In relation to the actual films on sale here: the two areas we've focused on are a) professional technique and b) a simplified version of those techniques put together in a structured way so artists can get immediate results. Our two films achieve that purpose, and are the Fine Art Techniques film (which was nine months in production!) and the Create Paintings That Sell "Fine Art Landscape" subject.

For artists wanting a professional career, or existing professional artists seeking a bold new direction in their career, or artists who just want to know what the fine art techniques of oil painting are, the Fine Art Techniques film is all you need. That is a very comprehensive film, and there is no need to go past that as far as professional painting goes.

The "Fine Art Landscape" concept is designed to utilise some of those techniques and is relevent to any artist painting any subject, even though the subjects in this DVD are a tree, meadows, distant hills, water, sky and grass. This is because the artist learns the structure of fine art painting, and of course some of the powerful fine art techniques, and by learning them the artist can apply that learning to painting any subject or in fact any style he or she wishes. It's a powerful painting tool.

Yes, the big gap we haven't filled in our collection is painting seascapes. We'll have that released at some stage in the not too distant future. We currently have many entertaining films in various parts of production. There'll be a new INNER SANCTUM Series DVD and some Australian Subjects Series DVD available soon.

We do more than just put out general how to paint DVDs. Unfortunately, the art market is swamped with artists putting out low quality DVDs and videos trying to make some extra cash. These do not meet our standards of teaching or production quality.
We have produced in several areas of film and television, including television commercials and three music videos. We choose to call them films because they are created to that level of quality, and we would like to establish in the marketplace a better understanding of the levels of quality available for artists.

For us, it is a huge undertaking, though we acknowledge other companies and artists produce quick DVD's. Apart from the ability of the teacher to work with a camera (in our case 3 cameras) and provide exactly the right help on screen, the technical requirements of professional film making are extensive. We shoot and edit in broadcast quality equipment, which is extremely advanced technically and very demanding. All our films are produced to be able to be broadcast as segements on television shows. We intend to produce our own television show in the upcoming year.It may interest a few readers, as an example, that our Inner Sanctum "Seascape" film required months of editing - in rough terms about 25 times the edit requirements of a feature film, not including animation or special effects films.
