Transfer photos Polymer Clay, beads and cabochons

Production of DVD Matthew Nix on the use of photo paper transfer with polymer clay to create polymer clay beads and cabochons, plus an introduction over your packaging polymer clay beads and cabochons.
Transfer photos and electrical son in a DVD packaging
I am not experienced a polymer clay artist, and have not done much with the clay itself, much less try more advanced techniques such as photo transfers. So when I received this DVD on the photo and transfer Packaging son, I was ready to learn all about the transfer of photos and polymer clay, and take some new directions on the package over .

To say I was a little disappointed is an understatement. Nowhere on the pendant Create a Web site, and nowhere on the DVD he said that this is destined for a better understanding polymer clay user, it does not specify that the wire techniques are designed for a beginner, but that experience with wire and wire basic handling techniques are a must.

The first segment of this DVD focuses on technology transfer photo. Unfortunately, it seems to have been little or no post-production editing this part of the DVD, because long ago, completely unnecessary scenes left, while the rest of this tutorial feels rather rushed and crowded together.

The technique for transferring images from paper to clay polymer is shown, however, if you're not already a veteran of other methods for transferring pictures to polymer clay, this is not the DVD lesson for you. There are no background on the photo transfer techniques, nothing on other types of paper or transfer of products, and nothing on how to get the graph and its location on paper transfer. You'll need to know graphics software and image manipulation before attempting this process, and certainly before you try to activate the transfer rather expensive product recommended.
Transfer photos Polymer Clay, beads and cabochons DVD - Wire Wrapping
The wire packing section was better than the first section on photo transfers, unfortunately, although, by much.Again not, it is apparent that the sequence has not been published, and the sound seemed to reduce and places. The camera showed images of wood on the table, instead of work, and gunshots were developed over a number of times.

Because I have a little more experience in packaging over that I do with polymer clay, I think make the most of this section, and I did. However, I could not follow what happens after the first of three lessons had been demonstrated, because there was no image of the finished pieces. It was like watching an animal balloon fact, fascinating, but I would have liked to know what the finished project objective was before the course began. And yet, the pace is too fast, this DVD would be very difficult to keep up with your own work.

My biggest complaint about this section, however, has less to do with the wire that the package with the lack of preparation before. No debate over a general template, tools, and absolutely no discussion of the importance of eye protection was done before the launch in the lesson. Perhaps it is assumed that the viewer is an experienced over packaging, however, the lesson focuses on a beginner, so that they would not be safe assumptions.
Transfer photos Polymer Clay, beads and cabochons DVD - Conclusion
There is some valuable information on this DVD, and for someone with knowledge transfer photo in general, including products on the market, how it is done, what it is and how it was created in using other methods, it would be useful information.

And for a person with at least a little over envelope knowledge, it would be useful because there are a few tips to make it a little easier for new packaging son.

Unfortunately, even for someone looks for both basic photo transfer information and coverage over the envelope, the combination in the production of this DVD is not sufficient to justify the cost. Perhaps at a lower price, yes, this would be worth some polymer clay and son envelope public, but the current list price of $ 24.99, I can not recommend this to the average polymer clay and / Or wire packing amateur.
