Welcome to James Whitelaw Animation

I hope your visit will be both productive and enjoyable. Here you will find a selection of my current and past work, plus some resources such as courses that are available that may be of some real value to you no matter where you are on your animation journey. Take your time, have a good look around, and make yourself at home. I certainly hope that there is something here for you. If not, please leave your contact details so you can be informed of any new material and resources that will be added over time. Thank you for dropping by.


Below are the courses I currently offer.

There are more on the way, so please leave your details on the last page before you go, and you will be kept informed of any new material that is added!

Here is the reason you needn't wait to buy.

All the courses are priced at their lowest prices.

There is no reason to wait to make a course purchase. Each and every course is priced at the lowest price it will EVER be. They start at the lowest price, when they are launched, and only increase in price over time. They will never get "cheaper". There is a very good reason we do this; to protect you, our valued student and client. Please see the more detailed explanation in the "Pricing of  courses" section below if you need to know more.

Pricing of courses.

Why the price of any course will never come down.

We price our courses at the most cost efficient price we believe is possible. We are very aware that many of our students are young and/or very price sensitive, and we are also very aware of the current economic environment, so we set the prices at the lowest possible level we can, whilst keeping in mind the time and effort that goes into our courses.  

We don't want to offer "cheap" courses, we would rather offer the best courses we can make at the best prices we feel we can offer them at. 

We want to create "value" in all the courses we make.

We also do not, and will not, reduce our prices in the future. So we don't have "sales", offer discounts or jump on the "Black Friday" sales wagon that comes around every year.

So, we will never reduce the cost of a course once we have students on board. 

The reason for this is simple; we appreciate the students that part with their valuable cash, and we don't want to "cheapen" or "under cut" their purchase. So if anything, the courses will only increase in price, and value, over time. But they will never get cheaper. 

This is to protect you, our valued student and student and client.

So if you purchase one of the current courses at $25, it won't get cheaper next week, next month, or next year. What will most likely happen, however, is the price will increase over time as more material, and new sections are added to the course over time. So the courses going for $25 today, may be going for $30 next year, and possibly $40 the year after. 

A good example of this is the "Making A Short Animated Movie" course. It was initially priced at $15 and now is is currently priced at $35. 

It will be repriced at $40 when part 4 of the film and the course are completed, then it will be be priced at $45 after part 5 is completed, $50 after part 6, then at $55 after part 7 and finally it will be priced at $60 after part 8 is completed, and the full course is completed.

The price may rise even higher than the $60 mark in future as more material is added post production, and the course work is updated.

So, it  will increase in price later as new material is added after completion. But it will never go down in price. So if you buy it now at $35, you are locking in a 50% saving on its future price. But if you buy it in a few months at $40, or even $45 - you never need to fear that it will be repriced at $35 again, or even it's initial price of $15 - after you have bought it. 

It won't.

 This is to protect the value of your purchase. What you buy today, you will never get "cheaper" tomorrow, or next month, or next year.

And so it will be that no matter what price point you purchase this or any other course on James Whitelaw Animation - the price will never go down.

So you can rest assured the value of your purchase will never be under mined. Plus, you can be sure too that your purchase price will always be the lowest it can be. It will never be "cheaper".

We hope this gives you some reassurance that the value of your purchase will never be discounted in future. 

Also, we hope this encourages you to make a purchase at any time, knowing that the price you see for a course is the lowest it will ever be. You needn't wait in the hope that it will be discounted in the future - it won't be.  If anything, the price may be higher in future,

So if you want to purchase a course, there is no time like today. 

FAQ

  • Do I download the course onto my computer?

    No, the course will be available on Thinkific for you to log in and engage with at any time. The advantage of this is it is "always there", and can not ever be lost.

  • What about updates and new material?

    That is another great advantage of having it on the Thinkific platform; all new material that may be added after your initial purchase will automatically be available to you. So you will always have access to the most current version of the course you purchase, no matter when you purchase it.

  • What if I decide I don't want the course after purchase?

    As long as it is within 30 days of purchase, you will receive a full refund if you decide for what ever reason that you no longer want the course.
