This class is perfect for aspiring filmmakers, directors, editors, cinematographers or anyone who is keen to take their video based storytelling to the next level. Even if you’re a beginner with no videos to speak of yet - if you want to start off on super strong footing - this class is for you too.

You’ll walk away from this class with a clear vision for your own videos using the method I've developed over the last decade of practice to great success. 

All you need for this class (besides a good story) is a basic understanding of camera gear and editing software like Premiere Pro.
