Sorry if this has been posted before - I did do a quick search but couldn't find anything...

Our man Zack Arias is bringing out a 2 disk DVD of his onelight workshops! You can preview a teaser here.

Love that this stuff is getting put on DVD - there is nothing like it here in Australia and its not really feasible at this stage to fly over for a workshop ohmy.gif

Book me in for one!!! Heaps excited!

Zack! Come back to Texas!! I missed the last one also:(
I have a special account, where a little bit from each paycheck goes, just for the OneLight workshop. I refuse to go into any more debt even for such a great workshop!

Zac now has an excerpt from DVD1 of his set on youtube:

Zack asked me to look at some rough edits of the One Light DVD a few weeks ago. I was honored, of course, that he was interested in my opinion.

I can barely begin to tell you how good this video is. The version I saw had lots of "Place Image Here" frames where the example images will go and it was still very educational. The production value is so good, the camera work is professional, the graphics are innovative. It's just an amazing product.

All that aside, I think the best thing about it is my friend Zack. He has that "something" about his delivery that will hold your attention for the entire video. It's not like you are sitting there bored, fighting to pay attention. You actually want to watch and you actually understand.

I was hoping to make it to the unveiling this Friday night at Zack's house but I had a previous commitment. I hope some of the people who are there will update this thread with their impressions.

I don't think you can post the link here. My understanding was that this link came by email only and you had to sign up by a certain time to get this link. You might want to take it down.
Gail Werner
Okay, I am really interested in placing a pre-sale order, but want to wait until Zack checks back in on this thread, since I wasn't on the e-mail list.

Zack....ARE YOU OUT THERE??!!!!!!!!!!!! What's a photog who wants the DVDs but wasn't hip enough to hit up the email list to do?!
Lynn Bernardi
Did any of the people that ordered on Day 1 of the promotion get their dvds yet?
Jim_Meyer
They are scheduled to be shipped out towards the end of July if I remember right. I can't wait to get mine! camera.gif

Just ordered mine! CANT WAIT TO GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!
Gail Werner
Just hit send on the "PayPal". I can't wait to check it out. I knew this was something I was wanting for ages, and while I know I'm still getting my feet wet with flash, I couldn't pass up the $75 savings! Thanks for the pre-sale discount Zack!
killashandra
Arrgh, I'm too tired to think straight. I ordered by following the link above even though I am on the e-mail list and got the e-mail. Will that matter?

You really should take down the link, the point was for Zach to be able to offer a discount to people who bothered to sign up for the e-mails...
JS Photo
I am like staked out at my window watching the ups guy drive by every day now! About how many days before the dvd's are shipped? I am just guessing at like a week or two?

The link still works, so give it a try to see the total price.

I'm excited to get this DVD. Can't wait... I figured that since I can't make it to the workshop that this would be the next best thing.

...stole the question right out of my mouth. To be honest I have had the temptation to do the "are we there yet?" and ask incessantly for the last two weeks (except in the form of "is it on its way yet?")
petenicol
Well its not shipping yet My UPS man arrived with some kit I ordered months ago and had forgotten about. I think its the end of July it ships.
designchic255

Heres an update about the shipping of the dvd's that was sent out by Zack!




QUOTE
Hi All,
I've gotten a number of questions today about the DVD sale and shipment. Let me
clarify a few things for ya. Sorry if I was not clear in previous emails.

1. For those of you who signed up on the list prior to July 4th, you were given
the opportunity to pre-purchase the DVD to guarantee delivery from the first
batch. That pre-sale is now over and the first batch has sold out.

2. If you pre-ordered the DVD your shipment will be priority. We will not take
any new orders until the pre-order DVDs are shipped out. Your order will be
shipped within 24 hours of us receiving all of the material from the various
vendors supplying the goods. If you ordered, you are getting it first.

3. Once the second shipment comes in, I'll send out another email blast to the
list here. You'll be given a 1 day sale price of $225. You will have a link to
click for either PayPal or Google checkout so that should take care of all of
our international customers who have issues with PayPal payments. This is being
done so that everyone on the list who did NOT get in on the pre-sale has another
chance for the discounted price. You will get an email once the second shipment
has been received by us. We are not going to take orders for the second
shipment. We have a lot of work on our hands to get the first shipment out.

I can not give you a set date as to when this will happen. We are waiting on
the shipment ETA from vendors. We expect the second round to be in by August
15th but we don't have a guarantee on that.

4. Once that second shipment is in we will have a page on the OneLight site for
ordering any time you please. That page will not go live until we have the
inventory on hand.

So, just to clarify, if you pre-ordered the DVD you will be getting it ASAP. We
hope that all the shipments get to us by this week. That was the ETA that our
vendors gave to us. We are now just waiting for the boxes to arrive.

I hope this clears up the questions you may have had!

Cheers,
Zack

Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay. I've been a busy man... I got married! Ok, that's for another post!

BUT...

We sent all materials in for the deadline to ship by the end of July. We have one vendor who has failed on sending the last part of the stuff needed for the packaging. We have the DVDs in and they are awesome! I'm really proud of this baby. The booklets are in. The label printer and labels are in. The postage is ready to go. The boxes are in. Everything is in but the "bubble wrap". And it isn't bubble wrap. We're just doing something cool to keep the DVD protected in shipping and give ya'll something extra. I'm waiting on that last shipment.

AS SOON as it gets in we start stuffing boxes and making runs to the post office. We are told "next week" for arrival but I haven't gotten a tracking number yet so I don't want to give a hard date. I apologize for the delay. This is a vendor I have used before and know many who have used them in the past and I trust the wait will be worth it.

If you have not been getting anything from the mailing list, then you need to check your spam filter. It is coming from zack @ zackarias.com . We have found that folks who did not get info from the mailing list are finding my update emails in the spam filter. Check with your host if you are still not finding them.

I hope you all are well and we'll see some of you in the next few days up in Seattle and Portland!

Even though I'm going to be out of town next week, Erik will be on point with the packaging and shipping while I'm gone.

I promise it will be worth the wait.

Once the pre-sale orders that have been placed are fulfilled then we will begin taking orders again. We are not taking orders until the pre-sale orders have been shipped and we have a full stock again of product. Expect that to happen in about 10 days. But... I make no promises based on this one tardy vendor. I don't want that to happen again.

Cheers,
Zack

Whoa, congrats, Zack.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the update - I was just thinking about the DVD this morning. I was telling everyone how much I was looking forward to getting it and sitting down with everyone to watch it.

I'll quit sitting by my mailbox now that I know it will be next week.

And yes, congrats on getting married - you definitely need to post that up.
Gail Werner
Yeahhhhh!!! Thanks for keeping us all updated Zack - no doubt you have seven million things on your plate so it means a lot that you remembered.

And CONGRATS on getting married! I'm guessing yours is going to be one wedding album that will be off the hook. smile.gif

Has anyone gotten their DVD yet? We are chomping at the bit here.

Just got a knock on the door. I opened the door and no one was there. Then I looked down and at my feet Onelight DVD!!

Thanks Zack
jasonArmond
This DVD is official!!!!!!!

I have brought several photography dvd’s over the years. Just by opening Zack’s DVD and skimming through the booklet. I know that this DVD is going to be worth every cent. I am looking forward to drowning myself in Zack's technical knowledge of lighting. If you haven’t got your DVD you need to get one now.

I was going to see Tropic Thunder at Movie Theater, not any more just told my friends I can’t make it. Tonight it’s going to be Onelight and me.
Jim_Meyer
Mine came today as well!!!!! Can't wait to watch it
