| About The Provider |
CreativeLive is an online
education platform that broadcasts live classes to an international audience.
The company has dual headquarters in Seattle and San Francisco, with four
in-house production studios.
CreativeLive classes
are broadcast live from four in-house production studios. A key aspect of CreativeLive's approach to
online learning is interaction via online classroom, which is facilitated by a
studio audience that also appears on camera. The in-studio students, usually
ranging from three to 15 people, ask questions of the instructor during the
class and act as a proxy for the viewers at home. CreativeLive
broadcasts 24/7 across five channels: Photo & Video,
Art & Design, Music & Audio, Maker & Craft, and Business &
Money. |
