Yes it was wonderful awesome experience and I learned a lot. Thank you so much. I had a great time.
By Benedikt Reinicke on 10/3/2022
I got that course to learn more for gamedesign, (sometimes pixelart, sometimes 4k). I learned some new things and I would recommend this course, BUT around 20 secs intro and 20-25 secs outro each video for 3-5 min videos seems way to much!
By Hritwik Chakraborty on 7/4/2021
Extremely informative and to the point. For someone like me, who had no idea about Lightroom at all, this was a brilliant course. Thank you.

This course was simple and easy to listen. There are a few tips I've not thought of when looking to earn money with photography. The bonus section was good variety as it showed some tips to editing photos. This is definitely a beginner's guide and is quite basic.
By Robert van Beek on 7/31/2020
This is not a course, it’s an extensive summary. It gives you ideas to dig deeper but it doesn’t really teach you a skill. A simple search online would give you similar summaries. Editing is poor. I hope the money paid by me for this course will help you to improve your skills to produce a good course in the future. To make a summary like this shows me that some research went into it hence the 2 stars. Wishing you all the best for future productions.

Following things are missing: 1) No information about budget equipment like camera, audio devices and lenses 2) Some sites are verbally told but not shown on screen.
By Prashant Sharma on 4/20/2020
hi there sorry, this could be better , even I don't have the software lightroom, not much I have learned, low volume of the speaker. regards, prashant sharma

Could make it more specific... i.e in technical terms it's kind of pseudo code of a program. One expect a clean and structured code when paid to enroll self.
By Alicia Gagne on 8/18/2019
Okay course but not for someone who is already a photographer. Basic google searches get you all of this info. For someone who needs a lot of beginning help.
By Ganeshanathan Mathushan on 1/2/2019
This course helps to take good photos and promote that photos and also help to earn money from our photography.
