Instructor Details

Jordy Vandeput

Hi, I'm Jordy and I hosts one of the biggest YouTube channels about filmmaking & video editing; Cinecom.

With more than 2.7 million subscribers, we publish weekly tutorial videos. After graduating from film school in 2012, I immediately began teaching online where my real passion lays.

I've never liked the way education works. So I wanted to do something about it. With the classes I produce, I try to separate myself from the general crowd and deliver a course experience rather than some information thrown at a student.

Take a look at my unique courses, I'm sure you'll enjoy :-)

Yes but maybe show a shot that is wrong way then show how to do it the right way.

By Samir Miranda El-Souki on 6/29/2026

O curso é muito bom, tem exemplos práticos sobre cada matéria, tem orientações sobre como usar e quando utilizar. Senti somente uma falta de ideias praticas que o aluno pode fazer como se fosse um exercício básico. Mais o curso é bom, tem bastante informação e aprofundamento.

By Aidan Viana on 3/31/2026

A very clear and concise course with lots of useful information and examples of what camera settings will do to a shot.

By Victor Victor on 3/12/2026

The instructor has a great approach: share a lot of information while being funny. It also captures my attention with his short clips showing what he is explaining.

Great class that touches on the technical part of film making. Highly recommend it to any one that wants to start in the film industry.

The class was well put together. Plenty of technical terminology, specific, explanations, and demonstrations of real filmmaking. Not to mention, he was fun and entertaining!

Each lesson was well explained in an energetic and informative way. Even though I come from a still photography background I found that there was sill a lot of information to be learned.
