Looks very nice. If my finances and school had worked out better I would have been picking both up. I guess theres always next year if I am lucky. :(

"Introduction to..." I'm NOT an expert, but I've got the intro down ok. I'd like "Tips and Tricks" and/or "Advanced..."

Yeah but how nice would it be to have all 8 volumes? Hopefully the bundle will be cheap enough that I can afford it someday. :)

Those are coming too. We've got some very exciting titles, but we're not saying what they are until they're close to shipping. As you can see, there are many volumes in the mix.

IS there any information as what is on the DVDs, how long they are and what they cover?

I pre-ordered some other DVD tutorials from the following place: I wonder if these will be as good as the Spot ones......

If you click the link, you can see streams of the videos, you can see some of what's covered....

Spot I ordered the "Now Hear This" about a month back or less, I was going to or the first Vegas 5 DVD. Is there still a discount code for the Vegas users?

E-mail me privately, donp@dcr.net.

I just looked at the sample video. These look even better than the Class on Demand DVD for Vegas 4. Obviously more post production was done. Titling, highlighting and tight close-ups are used effectively. There's less fumbling with resizing windows. The pedagogy is more sophisticated. The visuals are used to reinforce "the lecture." On the COD product, I often would have to rewind a segment, I think that would happen less with these.

Buster, Glad you noticed the post-production. We're stepping up quite a bit from what we've done in the past. I was very unhappy with the whole previous DVDs we'd done outside of VASST. Quality was low, editing wasn't as tight, and of course, REEL DVD's encoder wasn't all that. We've done a lot of post, plus a buncha goodies that come with each DVD. Videoguys is the first dealer to receive the Vegas 5 series. We're quite excited to get this series in people's hands. It's pretty important to us to keep trying new things, as others are starting to follow us into the training realms of Vegas.
