100 hours or not
Olson's perspective course is seriously one of the best courses i've ever taken.

>21 "chapters"
>each "chapter" are 5 hours long on average, some are even up to 7 hours

What the fuck is this? I get that its comprehensiveness makes it the best perspective course out there, but what the fuck? Isn't 111 hours on a single subject beyond overkill?

Erik Olson's stuff on NMA is the most comprehensive video lecturing on perspective, at least for 1, 2 and 3 point.

He explains everything in detail, teaches you lots of tricks with geometry, planning and measuring. He holds your hand all the way through so it should be easy to follow. However it's very long, mainly because he draws out lots of diagrams to show different ways you can use the tools he teaches you.
There's a lot of stuff he teaches that you probably will never use unless you're aiming for perfect accuracy on paper (you'd be mad not to use 3d if you can help it), but it's useful to go through to gain an understanding for what you can do in perspective and how to solve some complicated perspective problems.

Do this if you want more advanced understanding of perspective . If you just want the basics, you can probably get them from any perspective video you find on youtube.

I'm about to start on Erik Olson's perspective class. Any tips on conquering this behemoth?
