As featured in Animation Magazine (see link from this website's home page) Earthlight Pictures’ innovative all-live TelAnimate^(SM) videoconferencing system offers all students—regardless of state or country—access to the same Earthlight Pictures Animation Training courses previously available only through in-person classes on America’s West Coast.

TelAnimate^(SM) has set a new standard for online moviemaking training, featuring the closest approximation of in-person classes with direct, real-time, all-see-all visual and aural connections between instructors and classmates throughout all lessons via desktop closed-circuit television.

Teletrainees screen examples of filmmaking techniques and classic studio and independent films from America and abroad, learn principles of cinematic storytelling, get face-to-face coaching via live video in the production of their own movies, and visit with leading figures from the world of animation through videoconference. Other than an alternative system for animation students to record their work, the main difference between TelAnimate^(SM) and traditional in-person Earthlight classes is that no one has to travel to train.

You can begin individual teletraining whenever you like or enroll in a group teleclass with students from other locations.
