This is a two day demonstration and presentation and will have plenty of question and personal answer time! Marko is a phenomenal teacher and you will learn a lot. Bring an open mind. Bring open ears. Be ready to have your eyes widened. We will see you there!!!!

We have an incredible amount of money to raise for the new server systems and technology for CA and Marko has been so kind as to give his full support to this cause since CA has done so much for his life and career, as it has for us all. Huge thanks to Marko for going out of his way to see this happen and for giving back to the community as he has so much in the past. CA proceeds are, of course, going to support the cause. CA just placed an order for 25k worth of servers for this year, after the site was hit these past days with traffic. This is on top of all we pay now. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Marko, we love you. Thanks for all you do.

Hello all,

If you happened to have looked at this thread you would have seen that the dates for Marko's class were in the middle of the week. They have been changed to the weekend of Sept 26th and 27th 11 am to 3 pm Central Daylight Time.
This two day experience is not to be missed!
See you online!

[petitemistress]

Slash and I are hopefully in, just waiting for a paycheck here ;)

[Noah Bradley]

This is gonna rock. Now, to scrounge up some money... :)

(glad to see it's on the weekend, now, too) :)

[Zilrion]

Been waiting for this, really looking forward to it :)

[jubjubjedi]

Fuck yes.
Danke schön!

[Chaser226]

Well, I was gonna spend the money on the sale items...then I saw this Marko link...what??!!! Hehe...I'm there.

[Liam Harvey]

Yes. THIS.
Arranging the free time for it today.

Gonna be awesome learning.

[Darjan Jurincic]

Fantastiche!!!!!

[LostFayth]

I just purchased the password to the forum. Damn this is gonna be sooo great. I'll receive his art book about a week before I'll attend the class. Could this get any better? :D

[Hive_minD]

Wow.. dunno if I can make it live, but if its on demand, Im so there!

[ROCKNROLLA]

Marko is my hero, I can't wait!! I wonder will there be anymore classes until this one?

[Jovian M]

Hopefully this goes to on demand, or I won't be able to pick it up.

It'd be sweet to see the live version and ask him questions, though.

[Movenski]

please let this be on demand... i'm can't see it that weekend and this's the one to watch for sure... if it's on demand, i'm all over it.

[Daniel Andrews]

Gonna buy a new Note Book for this one.
Its gonna be a feast of Knowledge.

[davi]

pants shatteringly exciting! Cant wait to see this.

I just picked up Marko's cover book recently, page after page of awe-inspiring brilliance; I love looking through the pieces with characters and noticing how each and every hand has a purpose, and/or expression to either emphasize mood or personality.

Marko is beautiful human, fantastic artist and a hand that pulls up this community of artists to a higher level.

Cheers to Marko!

[Hive_minD]

I´m still waiting on my own copy of Marko´s book :) Sooo excited!
Btw, Davi, you wouldn´t happen to know if this class too would be on demand afterwards would you? Cause as soon as I get the clear on that, I´m paying!

[Shadow Stalker]

God I wish I was rich.

[Jason Rainville]

God I wish I was rich.

$150 for two days is a mecha-godzilla deal. No need to be rich.

Still, I wish I had any spending money at all :(

EDIT: Btw, Davi, you wouldn´t happen to know if this class too would be on demand afterwards would you? Cause as soon as I get the clear on that, I´m paying!

Seconded to the utmost max.

[KonnA]

Not much I can say (It's all going to be said... You know how awesome you are)

Work is so very good!

[KonnA]

[Daniel Andrews]

Wish I could get the lesson now, so I can apply what I didnt know sooner. :)

[jedininjaman]

err thats 16 liters of blood donations...
_time to man up!

[cokedog]

wow hey really great job. i especially like the second one.

[Sanskarans]

This man is a superhero of comic art.Mind-binding works

[MatejaPetkovic]

One question, is this going to be recorded and what is price for download(if there is one), for us who can't watch on Sept. 26-27 th?

Thanks

M

[Tessilago]

I can't be there on those dates, but I really want to get this class. If I can watch it when I get back home, I'm so all over this.

[Hive_minD]

One question, is this going to be recorded and what is price for download(if there is one), for us who can't watch on Sept. 26-27 th?

Thanks

M

It won´t be for download, but I believe it will be on demand like the rest. I just want a 100% confirmed on this :P

[MatejaPetkovic]

Thanks hive mind

M

[Hive_minD]

Thanks hive mind

M

No problem.. thoooough! Who knows, MB/CA might surprise us and create a download :)
Though right now, I don´t really see it happening. Not yet :)
Still awesome though, and I´m psyched!

[Cranberry]

There is no better way to say "GET A JOB" right in my face than by doing it like this... Damnnnn I want this so bad it hurts

[Jason Manley]

Yep...will be on demand for 30 days.

Thanks everyone!

[cl0aked]

I'm completely broke and divided between this one and Jason Manley's Independence In Art. I have money for only one of them. What do you guys suggest??

[Carg0re]

i can't decide either :( wheter i want to join in on marko or the dynamic gesture lesson... pretty hard to decide...

but i'm pretty sure i'll go with marko... well i guess i'm a fanboy after all :)

can anyone pls tell me how these lessons are held? is it a stream or how do people interact? i know... sometimes i'm not only a fanboy but a n00b too...

[LostFayth]

It's a livestream. Marko will be talking and we'll be able to see what he's doing. We will interact trough a chat. We'll chat with him and he'll reply in spoken word. It works every time :)

[Carg0re]

thks for the answer... sounds interesting :)

[cl0aked]

Sounds like I'll have lag issues ):

[D.aligh]

OMG, Marko Djurdjevic is teaching!!! Hopefully I'll have enough money to listen to his words of wisdom.

[LostFayth]

Sounds like I'll have lag issues ):

That doesn't have to be the case:
http://www.speedtest.net/

Run two speedtest:
- To New York City, New York, US
- To Austin, Texas, US.

If you get a download around 2 mb/s I guess you would do okay. What I remember of the two other classes I attended to was that members from Italy were having issues and couldn't participate thanks to the lag. I don't know if that's the case with Brazil too.

[cl0aked]

2 mb per sec? Wow. Sounds like I can't participate in these streaming classes: 0.88 Mbps to either cities and ping of 398 ms to Austin and 120 ms to New York.

[CecelyV]

All signed up and looking forward to Marko's class ^_^
Thank you CA!

:yayca:

[LostFayth]

2 mb per sec? Wow. Sounds like I can't participate in these streaming classes: 0.88 Mbps to either cities and ping of 398 ms to Austin and 120 ms to New York.

Oh sorry! I ment Mbps. And the pings are rather high.
It is advised to have a (standard) broadband Internet connection. I don't know what is standard in Brazil. If you have a dial-up connection it could get really ugly for you: Lags, disconnection and such.

[cl0aked]

Heh, i figured. I'm on a 1 Mb ADSL. Do you think those pings will be a problem? what's your connection?

[LostFayth]

Those pings may cause some major hiccups.

New York City:
Ping: 86ms
Down: 8.49 Mpbs
Up: 1.43 Mbps

Austin, Texas:
Ping: 267 ms
Down: 9.76 Mbps
Up: 1.19 Mbps

If I recall correctly the server of Livestream is located in New York City, so I guess that's the one that matters. I think it's Austin, TX (They're broadcasting from there) to NYC and from NYC it goes all around the world.

EDIT I'm gonna PM you. Let's not bore the others with this :P

[cl0aked]

New York City:

My ping to NY is similar to yours (120ms). I guess what would get in the way of the streaming might be the download speed. Do you ever get hiccups?

[Airlit]

Do you ever get hiccups?
Only if I drink water too fast :P

[Daniel Andrews]

Do we have to purchase the class the day of?
It sound like we can buy now and do the rest the day of class.

I just wanted a little clarification before I made the purchase.

Thanks

[LuckyDevil]

You can purchase ahead of time, i bought mine the day they announced it :P

and just remember to attend the day of, or if you can't make it you can watch it on demand for the next 30 days after the class.

[ConceptArt.Org]

Hey all,

This class will be broadcasted from San Francisco (not Austin) so you might want to redo your speed tests based on that info.
:)

Thanks,

CA

[LostFayth]

Hey, Thanks for the info. It still means an upload to NYC, to the servers of livestream from which we will download right? Or is there a server located in SF as well?

[jonone]

for us european nubs...cenntral time is -6 hours GMT right?:P

cyas there

[Kitten Poker]

Looking at the world clock 11am there is 7pm in UK ^_^

[jonone]

in my windows clock ..central time(us&canada) is -6 hours GMT
so dunno about the 11am beeing 7pm:P

[Kitten Poker]

We are on BST so that's an extra hour, Here is the link to world clock:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=224
please do correct me if I am wrong, I would hate to miss any of it ^_^


Edit: redid time calculation for CDT rather than for San Francisco (silly Kitten)
Start time in UK works out at 5PM :op

[Liam Harvey]

Location/relative time change is a bit of a downer, cursed work is now in the way.

At least there is on demand to make up for it.

[goat27]

so i've never ordered any of the tutorials and content and stuff, but this is pretty can't miss for me.

if you order it and watch it live, can you go back and re-watch it later on if you want? see the techniques over again and take new notes?

i thought i read something like that on one of the other forums.

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

Just want to make sure I have this right, it's going to start 11am CDT, ie Austin UTC-5 hours and not PDT UTC-7 hours like the Chris Hatala lecture

Thanks

[Hive_minD]

Aye, I believe all the classes will be up for "on demand" (replay) untill november 7th!
;)

[LostFayth]

Is it true there is no post in the forum yet? I mean, I can't see one. The class is gonna start today so I'd figure there should have been at least one thread/post, right?

[master.mind]

Bought it this minute! I hope I recieve the password on the right time...

[etchesofthesun]

I also signed up for this one today! I cant wait, its gonna be awesome. I received my login info ultra fast too :)

[master.mind]

my order is still pending..

[Brushcommander]

Isn't this going to begin in about seven minutes?

[Just Call Me Bruce!]

I placed my order about six hours ago and the lecture is about to start and my order is still pending. was wondering if it could be fast tracked so I don't miss the start?

[LostFayth]

Tugelbend: More like 20 minutes ;) (and still no thread :()

[ShulChi]

Talk about building pressure! :) Come on guys, .. start the thread allready!! :D

[etchesofthesun]

Sorry to hear some people havent got their password yet. I hear the best thing to do is email the admin guys here on conceptart.

[master.mind]

Tugelbend: More like 20 minutes ;) (and still no thread :()

no thread?

and what is this

http://www.conceptart.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=184

[LostFayth]

Well...that's the forum and it says:
There are no posts in this forum. Or is it just me? :(

[Liam Harvey]

Location/relative time change is a bit of a downer, cursed work is now in the way.

At least there is on demand to make up for it.

Hey guess what? due to a horrendous error in time zone calculations i can now partake in the entire class live and on time.

looking forward to it.

[etchesofthesun]

Awesome, the more the merrier! :)

[CecelyV]

I still see "There are no posts on this forum."
Has the class started yet? I'm sure I'm in the right place...

[theymademedoit]

im not seeing anything either was it supposed to start 10 minutes ago? (im in diff time zone hoping iv worked it out correctly)

[Adrian Wilkins]

well...no vid yet.....we're waiting!!!!

[D.aligh]

Not getting anything either....
Must be patient :yayca:

[master.mind]

...and I still have no password

[yoitisi]

Yep there seems to be some kind of delay with this class, please have a little patience as I'm sure things will be worked out. I know Marko was flying over to SF for this class so he might be delayed with his flights or some such. I'm trying to pull some strings here to figure out what's going on but in the meantime please sit tight and refrain from posting too much in here.





Yes there's no thread made yet, yes the class hasn't started yet. I'll make a new post in here when it starts so please hold off on saying you can't see anything yet just like the rest!

[Zombie_Rich]

Conflicting times.... the ad says 11am CST, but the .txt says log on around 10:45 CST and before 1 CST it will load.... patience I suppose :) :yayca:

[LuckyDevil]

im gona get some food while we wait :P

Have faith people im sure marko wants this to be on time as much as we do. :yayca:

[Mattinian]

i`ve ordered pizza :] so what comes first

[ashgonzo]

what the heck is going on ..... lol

[ashgonzo]

is starting at 1pm then..

[Marko Djurdjevic]

the only thing I know is that the class is supposed to start at 11 am San Francisco time, that means in an hour and 20 minutes. I'm actually just heading over to Coro's house for it. See you all in a few minutes....

M

[Zombie_Rich]

Ahh see the ad says CST....the .txt says another thing.... ugh :P Thanks for the update dude :)

[yoitisi]

Awesome, seems that there was a mess up with the time that was set for this then. The original post says 11am Central Daylight Time, not the SF time.

Edit: It did have the wrong time in it, I fixed it so this won't happen tomorrow.


When: Sept 26-27 from 11am-3pm Central Daylight Time
Why: Because you want to see one of the masters of comics and figurative illustration share all his secrets, give live demonstrations of his personally developed techniques, and get all your questions answered by one of the most open hearts in the creative fields.
Where: Right here on ConceptArt.org


That was the old post, it should be 'Pacific Daylight Time' to be totally clear on it :P

[Pixeltuner]

hahaha, I knew it. Why would they post CDT when its held in San Fran ;) Typical :D
Anyhoot, I'm gonna play me some more ODST then, see y'all in an hour! :yayca:

[Kitten Poker]

Since the officall start time is now in about an hour, do we still have another hour till it starts or are they going to start early as people thought it was suppost to be a hour ago?

Just because there is a family gathering going on downstairs and i am being unsociable upstairs waiting..... but I don't want to miss any.

[yoitisi]

Kitten Poker: The lecture will start in about an hour so you can spend that time downstairs if you want :)

[Liam Harvey]

wish i remembered to get some energy drinks. oh well nap time! then learn time!

[john_d]

Argh! Setting my alarm clock on a Saturday morning is always a mistake!

[Jonas Heirwegh]

Still havent recieved a password...

Anybody else still waiting?

[Daniel Andrews]

ARTISTS! Ready your breakfast, and eat hearty, for today we Feast on Knowledge!

[Marko Djurdjevic]

Guys, it might be another 10-15 minutes, we're just updating the tech and waiting for the installation to complete...

Please be patient for one more second...

[Marko Djurdjevic]

ATTENTION


Guys, we're really sorry, but we have to postpone the Demonstration till tomorrow. We've been facing serious technical issues here, since all the tech got upgraded yesterday and the drivers aren't set up properly on the working station tat I was supposed to use today. We've tried to fix the problem for the past 2 hours but we have to wait for our technician to arrive to fix it properly. We're incredibly sorry that you had to wait so long and I'll try my best to make up for this tomorrow. We will do the entire class in one sitting starting tomorrow at

9:00 AM PST till 6:00 PM PST

Thanks for your patience everybody

M

[Daniel Andrews]

Understandable. See you tomorrow.

[LostFayth]

Aw man, Marko, that's really bad. I hope you guys are able to get everything okay for tomorrow. You're gonna kick ass...you always do. I'm looking forward to it :)

[Kitten Poker]

Is that timing right? 'cos that's 9 hours of stuff, which would be 5pm till 2am in uk?

[ashgonzo]

Thanks for the heads up M

[ConceptArt.Org]

Hello all,
Due to a technical failure beyond our immediate control we have to reschedule Marko's presentation for tomorrow Sept 27th 9AM Pacific Daylight time. (San Francisco CA time)
The class will be the same length it will just be all in one day and of course available on demand for 30 days after it airs.
We are all extremely bummed that this has happened and look forward to seeing you all tomorrow.

Our deepest Apologies,

CA.Org Staff

[Liffey]

Dammit. I'm buying this. This semester has been unusually kind financially, and watching Marko paint is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Hope you guys have all the kinks worked out tomorrow, I'm psyched for 9 hours of amazing art!

[D.aligh]

2 more hours.... the wait is killing me

[Liam Harvey]

attempting to wait paitently.

[Pixeltuner]

So I'm at work now again, wasted beyond belief but filled with excitement :) That was awesome. Can't wait to watch the rerun ;)

[Liffey]

Great show guys! Tons of inspiration to be had. :)

[ShulChi]

The class was awesome. Really got inspired! Thank you Marko, Coro and the whole CA.org.

[pauscorpi]

Thank You :))

[CTomlin]

Great stuff, cant wait for the next DVD Marko. Thanks for answering all my questions.

[LostFayth]

I almost fell asleep like three times while painting at school today! xD It was worth staying awake and spending the money, far beyond worth it. Let me restate it: Marko and Coro redefined the meaning of the word Awesome yesterday. That's what I really think of it. Thanks a looooot guys. I hope to catch you at the Berlin workshop :D

[AhChu]

Rushed home from work yesterday to watch the on demand version, only half way through it at the mo and I have got to say it is pretty damn f&$kin cool. Some really wicked insights so far and techniques. Cheers guys for putting together another cool LIVE stream.

[CecelyV]

Thank you Marko, Coro and all of CA.org for such a great class yesterday. Watching your processes and hearing you share how you work was immensely helpful. Thank you for flying out to San Francisco to teach us and share your time. I'm definitely going to get your Character Ideation download, and I look forward to your next download/class, too.

Thanks again!

[ConceptArt.Org]

Hey Guys and Gals,

Marko's On Demand Stream was taken down yesterday due to some slight digital hiccups that we noticed that could be corrected to give a better viewing experience. We hope to have the class back up and running today With a full 30 days to view from the date that it goes back up.

Our Apologies for the delay,

ConceptArt Staff.

[ConceptArt.Org]

And the class is back up On Demand! Enjoy!

Thanks,

ConceptArt.Org staff.

[Hive_minD]

Thanks again guys. Will check it out once I get home

[mpikklz]

I was just checking the store to buy it but it says it was supposed to go down on the second. Did this happen? Just curious if its safe to buy and watch it before it gets pullled.

Thanks! :)

[Daniel Andrews]
