Filmmaker & Photographer
Curriculum
A structured, gear-specific course built around your exact kit — from sensor fundamentals through to running a professional creative practice. Work through each module in order and complete the assignments before moving on.
Foundation
The non-negotiable core. Exposure, composition, lighting, cinematography basics, audio, and editing. Do not skip this phase even if you feel you know parts of it.
Craft
Integration and depth. Colour grading, sound design, gimbal mastery, drone work, 360°, and narrative structure. Your FX30 and RS5 become your primary instruments.
Advanced
Specialisations. Astrophotography, timelapse, hyperlapse, advanced colour science, FPV cinematography, motion design, and deep Affinity work.
Professional
Business and brand. Client workflow, your M4 Mac Studio pipeline, distribution strategy, and developing your signature creative voice.
