    The instructor was great and answered all the questions the class asked him. And I learned about the fundamentals to the camera, equipment use, and after we shot, I got tips on how to make the film better. Definitely would recommend.

    I really enjoyed this class. There was ample opportunity for questions, while still keeping the class moving. We reviewed and refreshed on a lot of camera basics throughout (which was really helpful), and then used those factors to maximize our video/film capabilities with DSLR.

    The class was really detailed and comprehensive considering it was just two days. Josh Koury did a great job answering questions and tailored the class to suit our needs.
