"This week, CreativeLIVE is hosting Photo Week, the largest photography education system of its kind: 50 courses taught by more than 50 top educators ranging in topics from wedding and concert photography to starting a photography business. \nInstructors have full access to the CreativeLIVE studios in Seattle, where they will broadcast simultaneously from three studios using multiple camera set-ups and use a unique style of instruction that relies on student ambassadors who bring in questions from the online audience via Facebook and Twitter as well as fielding questions from the in-studio guests. \nSee also: 12 Most Clich\u00E9 Photos on Instagram\nChase Jarvis started CreativeLIVE in 2010 and it has grown into one of the largest online education platforms in the world where creatives interested in pursuing careers in photography can learn and build communities. Jarvis believes the instructor is one of the most important facets of the success of CreativeLIVE. \n\"Instructors are the lifeblood of CreativeLIVE.\" Jarvis said. \"We listen to our community and they tell us what they want.\" \nInstructors get the benefit of meeting together in the same physical space \u2014 many for the first time \u2014 and reaching out to an international audience that doesn't have to pay. This removes two of the largest barriers to education: cost and geography.\nThis is built on Jarvis' belief that instruction is inherently social and should entertain and engage the audience. \nAfter the success of CreativeLIVE's Photoshop Week early this spring, Jarvis was quick to look for another way to repeat the experience. \n\"One of the things I have come to appreciate is that there are so many learning styles,\" Jarvis said. \"Some people want to be pushed, some want to be pulled. This is why we assembled a list of people with a variety of teaching styles and who are good at a variety of things.\"\nWith courses geared toward all levels of photographers, Jarvis hopes the access, flexibility and social nature of Photo Week will pull people in and allow them to take hold of their careers and transform them, all outside of the standard classroom. \nDuring Photo Week, all courses will be available for free by signing up and broadcast live on the CreativeLIVE site. Photo Week is available to purchase as a package for $299 to access and watch at any time; individual courses can also be purchased on the CreativeLIVE site. \nImage: Mashable, Nina Frazier"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
