Overview

QUICK TIP:

Where do I get music for all my videos?

I use AUDIIO nowadays! The most important thing for me is simply: How easy is it to find good music? I dont care how many songs they have or add daily or how many big brands use the service.. I need to know, that I can find what I need! And with Audiio I love how easy it is to find what I need. You can look for moods and themes and genres of course. But how useful is the "build" option, where I can select things like "ascending" in emotion or "multiple crescendos". Anyone who has edited before, knows how useful that can be!

Audiio Pro offers music AND sfx for any platform, including commercial work. And here is the catch: Through my link you can get the first full year for just 59$ which is 70% off!

I use it, I think you should use it, too. Click here and get those 70% off: I WANT TO TAKE A LISTEN

Learn how to create a visually pleasing image with a few easy-to-follow rules!

Framing often makes the difference between a "technically" correct shot and a visually pleasing shot. In this class I share with you what I have learned over the years of working as a cinematographer so you can start of with amazing looking videos.

Here is what you will learn in the class:

  • The most important RULE to know
  • How to evoke emotions with HEAD ROOM
  • How to lead the eye of the viewer with LEAD ROOM
  • Creative examples of Framing for Youtube Videos, Online Course, Client work and more
  • Live-Framing Session where I adjust an image on live

This class is called "Essentials" for a reason. I really believe that knowing about framing will change your video production quality probably more than buying that new shiny camera.

I hope to see you in the class and I am excited to hear from you!

Love ya!
