I put together a quick trailer for the webinar. Just something fun.

You can see it on Facebook on the Firelady Productions (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.) page.

When we were in Vegas for Glasscraft Expo, I interviewed Milon for a Glasscaster podcast.....and found out more about him than I ever knew....for instance, that he hitchhiked from Paris to Pakistan when he was still a teenager, and also how he started melting glass up in his bedroom with a bunsen burner lifted from science class when he was just 15.....

Anyway, he was wonderful to listen to.
You can hear the podcast also on the Firelady Productions Facebook page, as well as on:

This sounds great. It's too bad that it is not a webinar that we could download and watch later. The west coast time is smack in the middle of my work day :-(

Actually, by registering you do get a link to the recorded event that you can watch for 30 days. It's not a download, but it's a link to view online. We've got tons of movies and Powerpoints with some really revolutionary approaches to dichro. So......a month of viewing's not half bad, right?

actually, as someone who's taken them before, yeah it kinda sucks - about the time you want to go review the technique is when your 30 days run out. the sooner providers switch to a monthly subscription or library download model the better.

Our setup is that the attendees get 30 days free as part of the price of the webinar. But after that month the recording "goes public" and you can pay usually about $30 and watch the recorded webinar for a whole year.

Of course, you're not getting the joy of asking your own questions during a live event.....BUT....you're getting the benefit of the instructor and the questions of the event attendees. It's a pretty sweet deal. There are other webinar recordings out there where you pay a bit more and can view for just a week....
