This course was a great match for me as I was able to redesign my course right in the beginning of its creation process by taking into consideration several success key factors learned in storytelling. Paul Jekins conveys tremendous knowledge in film making and narration through the simple and efficacious video classes prepared for this course. I highly recommend this course for any person who aims at building a story of impact for work or life.
