Shipping Questions
What shipping methods do you use?  We ship via UPS.  (Note: If you are in Alaska or Hawaii or if you phone your order in we MAY be able to ship via the Post Office.  Not all orders can be shipped via the Post Office).
Do you ship international?  Yes, but please read the page on international orders.
Can you ship via FED-EX if we give you our FED-EX account number?  No not at this time.
If we give you our UPS number can you charge that?  No that is not an option with our current software.
Why do packages have to be signed for?  This is to protect you and Studio 1 Productions.   We have had people who have had packages stolen or claim to have been stolen when they are left at the front door.  By signing for the package, it allows us to make sure a responsible person has accepted the package.  Also, the credit card companies are starting to recommend this, and in some cases, they require the package to signed for.
Please note: Any package that is refused or undeliverable, you will be charged for the returned shipping cost along with the original shipping cost and a 25% restocking fee.  Return shipping costs are equal to the original shipping costs.  Your refund will be less both of these charges.  NO exceptions to this.
If I return a product do you refund the shipping charges?  No, we only refund the price of the product, less any restocking fees.  There are NO refunds on animations, music, software, DVD's, stock photos or stock footage.  See the first question at the top of the page for more information.  If you are an international customer and you paid broker fees, taxes, etc., you will need to contact the carrier in your country to see what their policy is.  We don't collect this, so we don't refund it.

Catalogs and Postal Mailings
Do you have a catalog? and Do you mail out direct mail flyers?  We are no longer printing catalogs.  With more and more people shopping on the web and less people using catalogs and flyers, we found it has become cost prohibited to print and mail out catalogs and flyers.  In addition, we are constantly adding new products, which was making the catalogs out of date within a few weeks of mailing them out.

Can I purchase just a single Animation or Stock Footage Clip?
All Animations and Stock Footage are only available as a collection, therefore you must buy the entire disk.  All of the Animations and Stock Footage are already burned onto DVD's or CD's and are ready to ship.

Can I download the Animations or Stock Footage ?
We provide you with high quality, uncompressed animations and stock footage, therefore, due to the large file sizes, downloading is not an option.  Some of the animation packages come on 3 DVD's, this is over 14 gigabytes.  Even single animation clips are very large, some being 300 to 400 megabytes each clip.

Can I purchase and download Music?
Yes, you can purchase individual volumes of music and get immediate downloads.  For more information please visit our download site at www.Studio1Downloads.com
