My son David loved this course! He's always been interested in filmmaking and this course gave him the opportunity to learn about documentary filmmaking specifically. He enjoyed learning about lighting techniques and using different filmmaking equipment. The handson activities were a great way for him to apply what he learned. Highly recommend this course!
