Course Overview



On this course, students will take an in-depth look at what equipment is necessary to make the jump in the pro photography world. This programme is aimed at beginners and self-taught creatives who are looking to expand their portfolio through Youtube and social media. While creativity is the main requirement for great productions, modern society and online AD's induce us into purchasing useless equipment. Let's dive into a pro's mistakes, and check out some of the latest trends like aerial videos and FPV. By the end of this course, students will have an intermediate knowledge of how to advance their creative career within the photography realm.
