I am a graphic designer, new to drupal and want to learn how to create a site with some videos on it 20 short videos about sales techniques as a first exercise.
Where should I start, in order to make a simple site that does this? I have access to lynda.com and will learn everything there, but there is nothing there about linking pages to payments or whatever the method should be.

We've done it.
Hi,
We have over 2 years of work invested to perfect streaming video using basic Drupal capabilities with a media shopping cart (ubercart and paypal) as well as subscription access, rentals, and unlimited access to individual videos or courses with multiple videos. We've also implemented copy security, progress tracking, social media and adaptive bit rate streaming to both Macand Windows as well as IOS devices with HTML5.
Its not pure drupal, but its a true working production video eLearning delivery platform using Amazon's cloud service that can easily scale as well as be branded and integrated. We offer this as SAAS only. Its a fast and inexpensive way to start selling and delivering your videos today.That is if you don't want to write all the code.
Check us out at www.vizigy.com. I'm also available to give demos..

Its pretty easy with Ubercart
Its pretty easy with Ubercart which has a built in role purchase function. Here's a how to http://drupal.org/node/1312418
Now although UC can sell roles it doesn't not control permissions, you will still need one of the many Drupal modules that control content access to specified roles. There are quite a few of them out there like the ones below
http://drupal.org/project/content_access
http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_access
http://drupal.org/project/simple_access
http://drupal.org/project/tac_lite
Lots more just search the forums and module list.
