FAQs

Why is the fee for the Imagineers program so high in comparison to other online workshops?

The duration of other workshops that happen online is a maximum of 2 hours. But at the Imagineers program, you get a 30 hours action-packed session. We strictly follow a limited seat policy for every program so that individual attention is given to each participant. You can have one-to-one communication with the Educator and we also assign co-educators to all participants to get their doubts clarified. One week of mentoring is provided to you after the program & a review session happens after that week. You also get high-quality PDFs & many resources for you to continue practicing the art form. You remain a part of the program group where you can share your progress & look at how others are performing. All these benefits definitely justify the fee we are demanding. And this is the reason we call it a program & not just a workshop.

How many breaks do you provide during the program?

We provide 3 breaks - pre-lunch, lunch & post-lunch for you to relax a bit. The lunch break is for 30 minutes and the other two are for 15 minutes each. So you get a total of 1-hour break throughout the program.

Do I need to keep the video camera of my laptop on for this program?

For a traditional art form program, yes. You will need to keep the video camera on and tilt the screen so that we can see what you are drawing. It will be kept on purely for us to see if you are doing the process correctly & we can rectify you if you are going wrong.

Do you take Digital programs as well or only Traditional ones?

Yes, we have some interesting Digital programs in the pipeline. Some programs will cover the basics of a few designing software. While some will cover the intense digitalization of a particular art form, where we won’t be teaching any basics. The requirements for any of these programs will be mentioned on the Specific Program page so you can select the program that suits you accordingly.

I have not drawn a single drawing in my entire life but still want to be a part of this program. Can I join?

You will be pleasantly surprised to know that most of our programs are designed keeping in mind people like you! We strongly believe anyone can draw & to prove it practically, we have built up this process especially for amateurs. You can take this program as a stepping stone into the world of creativity. We do not make false promises saying someone who does not know how to draw will become a master post this program. But there will be a huge leap in their drawings for sure. Thereafter it depends on how much you practice consistently. We will provide you with all the required resources which will help you become a master of that art form.
