	The Creative Process

Media Inc proudly introduces a series of 6 art programs MASTERS OF ARTS AND CRAFTS AND THE CREATIVE PROCESS. The goal of these programs is to help students of all ages find their own creative spirit and then encourage them to explore their own artistic bent.

What makes these programs so unique is that so much is said in such a short period of time. We get a glimpse of the passion that each artist has for his or her work. Most of the videos are only 7-8 minutes long so instructors can use them without taking a lot of class time.

We highly recomend the Masters of Arts and Crafts video series. The videos are interesting to watch and will hold the student�s attention. The short length enables the classroom teacher a good amount of time to incorporate techniques presented directly from the video during that class period. Information was clearly presented for all levels, adult as well as student, offering a chance to see the different approaches of each professional artist. Viewing these videos was both a pleasure and a worthwhile experience.
