Paint Along Requirements

Paint Along Requirements

What are the technical requirements for participating in a Paint Along Workshop?

  • You need a computer and a reliable broadband connection, as well as a Web browser (Mozilla Firefox is recommended for best viewing experience).
  • The great majority of students enjoy a fluid streaming video. If you experience constant buffering, try to narrow the space from your WIFI device to the modem, preferably watch your video in the same room where the modem is located. If that doesn't work, will also want to be connected to the Internet via an Ethernet Cable (available at any computer store).
  • A 5mbps download speed on your computer is recommended. Run a speed test here: http://speedtest.net. If you get 5mbps download you are good to go.
  • You can also watch the class on a large HDTV by connecting an HDMI cable. If it is a Smart TV, you can watch it directly.
  • To text chat in the live streaming platform (Twitch) you will need to create a free https://twitch.tv account.
  • On Twitch: If you see a message ‘video is only available to subscribers’ you will need to log into your Twitch account to watch this workshop. You will need to create an account unless you have already done so. Please note this is a different login than your Artists Network login.
