What is TAD Media?

About us

TAD MEDIA is a collaboration between the uber-talented folks at The Art Department and the world famous Conceptart.org community. Our goal is to serve you guys, the soon-to-be even more badass artists, by providing the best training videos possible from some of the greatest working artists today.

In order to improve our products, we welcome any feedback you may have as well as suggestions for future DVDs and downloads. Please keep in mind that we probably won't be able to take everyone's suggestions because talented artists are prima donna babies who say things like, "Not now my wife is in labor," or "I don't know who you are, so please stop following me." We'll do our best, though, just be patient.

Proceeds from our DVDs go right back into The Art Department and Conceptart.Org community, the production of future DVD releases, and to the artists.

About you

There is a freedom of expression that you are seeking that does not easily confine itself to the usual categories.  You are coming to some amazing conclusions lately concerning your core understanding of who you really are.

The DVD Promise

"At The Art Department, we use only the finest quality, all natural artists in our products. If you don't get better, we promise there is something wrong with you."
