I see I am on a “Sampler” page and I’d love to see the next segment. But there is no link or guidance to continue to the next part of this series. Even if I want to pay for it I can’t locate it. I tried a search but only found Vol II of day interiors. It would help to have a “Continue the lesson?” link to go on. Thanks.

@Jimross HI Jim, These are all of our free lessons put into a lesson. Our NON members could not understand how our left rail works. You see free lessons & courses, you click on it and it gives you all of the free lessons and you have access to them. On the sampler just jump out of the lesson and jump into the next one. Do no look at the left rail options while in the course. That is having bugs for some reason my friend. So sorry for the inconvenience.

@craig jones Hi Craig, Everything tests out perfectly on all browsers. So I feel it is a Vimeo issue that sometimes happens. Please be patient. Vimeo is absolutely essential in keeping our membership costs down. Thank you for your support and helping us out with finding these issues

This video is broken and the sound is all out of sync along with the colour grade being inconsistent. Doesn’t seem like the most reliable place to be getting *payed* filmmaking information…

@ChrisOsbyrne Hi Chris, We have fixed the video, thank you so much for reaching out. So sorry you feel that way my friend. Have a great day!!!

@ChrisOsbyrne the video is stil having issues...wont play through for me....tried everything I know of...

@ChrisOsbyrne Hi Jontomknuff, most of the time it is Vimeo, if you would prefer we can move to a much more expensive platform and pass all costs onto you. It would probably be around $100 a month, but I really want you all to not have to deal with this price. So sorry for the inconvience
