FAQ
-
Is this a live class through zoom?
No. This class has been pre-recorded and edited into 2+ hours of video lessons that you can learn at your own pace! Isn't that great?
-
Do I need expensive equipment?
Absolutely not! Whether you want to shoot your scenes on your smartphone, or on an ARRI Alexa, the principles and practices taught in this course can be applied to productions of any size and budget.
-
Will this work for beginners?
Absolutely! This course takes this simple fact into consideration. We built this class to be accessible to actors, not filmmakers, so you can shoot a scene as soon as you're finished with the class!
-
Why should I pay when it's free on YouTube?
Valid! There are millions of videos on various parts of filmmaking available on the internet, none of which take you into the process of producing a specific scene for your reel. If you want to learn directly from the people who make demo reels every day, then this class is for you.
