"I'm a full-time film director & best selling instructor who teaches aspiring video creators how to create incredible careers and videos.”
As a young kid I'd listen to music with my headphones on full blast, imagining scenes and stories that fit together perfectly with all the sounds I was hearing. I then quickly found my life's passion, creating films that engage the visual and auditory senses in ways that move people.
Today this passion has lead me to do the same thing, on a much larger scale.
Through creating high end commercials with well-established clients, artists, and brands from around the world, I’ve discovered what make films great.
I found out that it doesn’t matter what budget you have, which software your editing on, or what equipment you own. What DOES matter are the underlying principles and techniques behind what you do that creates something amazing.
Learning this on my own outside of “traditional” schooling, I truly wanted to create a space where others could benefit from the knowledge I'd gained. I created a youtube series designed to “help creative minded, turn their passion into a career.”
Today, this channel has been showcased by film festivals and websites such as, "NoFilmSchool" with over 3m views & 46k inspired followers.
Now, I’m bringing these teachings deeper and more in depth to the students of Udemy.
Where I will literally, teach you everything I know about:
○ Directing, filming, and editing like a (boss) talented professional.
○ Turning your passion into a career, aka making money doing what you love.
○ Enhancing your creativity and becoming a CREATOR.
