He speaks clearly, and with authority. He is also excited about what he is teaching and makes me laugh.

It is certainly very useful and just by sat taking notes and listening is already having a positive effect on my ability to be a producer myself. On top of this, it will come in handy when i go back to uni for my second year.

Great info and easy to understand. As a TV Producer working in Advertising this was a plus when looking to branch out into content.

Excellent course, but I what I've missed are video examples of his previous work. He showed us his showreel, but what I mean is that it would be nicer if he walked us through a video he's made. From start to finish. Just my 2 cents.

great course, learned a lot about what producing and directing is about. The teacher is very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, clear and concise, and he presents it all with a dash of humour, so it's fun to watch and listen to as well.

For something that covers a great deal and maybe doesn't have quite the time to devote to in-depth analysis - there is still a real depth of information and detail in what is being covered and a real reinforcement of both new ideas and more sensible common-sense elements that one might not have necessarily thought about initially.
