At this point in the class, I feel like the topics are a bit vague. The instructor keeps talking about the "skills" you become an expert at, but what skills? How do you know when you become an expert? It feel like there should be a section before section 2 that goes into more detail about some of the common processes and how to elevate your game.
By Maxi Gonsalves on 5/9/2020
Helped me in certain points to refresh and re-think my strategy to approach clients ahead

Even better than I expected! Many insights into working in the video industry and practical tips for getting and keeping paying clients
By Jim Sandlin on 9/20/2017
Pay your money and take your chances. If you paid $12 for this course, you paid too much. The course is so general, you can find it all in Google Search. I guess that I just hoped for too much.

The instructor is engaging and speaks clearly and with authority. The content is essential and concise. Video and audio is excellent. The visual summary at the end of each lecture is very helpful.
By Imran Alibhai on 5/11/2016
Very thorough. It covers all aspects of running a video production company: Target markets, client acquisition, and online branding. For me, the most valuable take away was how to choose a target market and how to approach that target market.
By Distill Design on 2/29/2016
The instructor, Alli, knows her stuff. This is an excellent crash course to take if you're starting out in the video production industry. This is pretty much everything you need to know to get going. Simply outstanding content. Very easy to follow.
