About your instructors:
Egon Stephan Jr.
"Like father, like son" they always say, yet nowhere has this clich been truer than when you apply it to the love of filmmaking shared between Egon and his father. Egon began his professional career at an early age, eventually running the camera rental department for his father at the ripe young age of sixteen!
After a six-year stint as the camera rental manager of CineVideoTech, he pursued his love for film in the field, running up an impressive list of credits. He worked his way up from technician to second assistant, second to first, first to operator, operator to second unit Director of Photography, second unit DP to Director of Photography on his first feature film, "Jungle Juice", starring Christopher Walken, Morgan Fairchild, Robert Wagner and Rutger Hauer.
Shortly after this achievement, Egon's father fell ill and his duty to continue the legacy his father had begun took precedence over his own successful career. He took over the helm at CineVideoTech in 2002 and has since been busy recreating the company that has launched so many successful careers into a vision of what is to come.

Alex Ferrari
Alex began his career as an editor and quickly moved up the ranks as a colorist, post-production, and visual effects supervisor. Coming from a visual effects/post-production background, this versatile director combines his passion for storytelling and visual effects experience with a unique visual style. Alex exploded onto the indie film scene with his award-winning short film BROKEN. The film went on to screen at over 200 international festivals and has been reviewed by over 250 news outlets worldwide including famed film critic Roger Ebert. "Broken is essentially a demonstration of the mastery of horror imagery and techniques." - Roger Ebert.
Through self-distribution, the BROKEN Special Edition DVD has also sold over 5000 units worldwide. Produced on a budget of $8000 and boasting over 100 vfx shots, BROKEN is one of the most celebrated shorts in recent years.
Alex Ferrari's work runs from stunning live action to animation, from visually gripping and stylish worlds to comic gems that will have you rolling on the floor. His body of work, highlighted by commercials spots for Comedy Central, a music video for the Three-Time Grammy Award Winning group Ozomatli (guest-starring Comedian Gabriel Iglesias), and the stylish Lipstick and Bullets, a compilation of your of his short film.
Being frustrated in seeing how his fellow filmmakers were being "chewed up" by the film business, Alex decided to start Indie Film Hustle, a website dedicated to educating filmmakers and artists on to survive and thrive in the film business. He also launched a podcast focusing on filmmaking called The Indie Film Hustle Podcast. Within three months of its start date, the show became the #1 filmmaking podcast on iTunes.Who this course is for:

YES

By Amar Kumar

Course is good and teaches you what it says. Following points should have been incorporated while shooting video for this course.

1. Since you are showing parts of camera, please zoom on that part, it makes life lot easier.

2. Instead of mono output, stereo output would be better.

By Nate Carroll

Sounds like it was recorded over 2 days with a single Lav unchecked for movement between takes. In fact, I don't believe its creator even tried to increase the gain in post. A backup cell phone recording would have produced better audio quality. Plus, the content is more focused to those with established film budgets.

By Antonio Maldonado

Good knowledge, but audio is REALLY BAD and transcriptions are bad as well.

By Paul Hartel

You plunge right in. Luckily for me, I have some understanding already, but evenso it would have been nice if the good duo here had explained a few more of the basics (beyond prime and zoom) before moving on to mounts, etc. MM ratings, for instance, and what the MM refers to exactly. Is this a horizontal measurement, or vertical/flat plane measurement? A distance from the lens to the object?

2nd Lesson when discussing lens mounts and lenses, 52mm is mentioned: (Distance between the lens and the receptor (film or sensor))?

Things like these would be good to explain up front. It is informative and interesting, but they could do a better job explaining the basics.

By meron Getnet

It is too technical and not understandable for beggingers

By Jacques Jordaan

Gives the student a great knowledge of all the different lenses out there and how and where you could use them as well as visual examples.

Well worth it.

By Oleg Masalov

Good, but might be better with more practise and more light situations.

By Kai Ferguson

Lighting is bad. Camera angel showing equipment is bad.

By Jeff Michael Kallet

Very informative

By Randolph Doherty

Yes, good overview of the different lenses and uses.
