"Thank you so much, Edd! I am very grateful to have the opportunity to take the class and join the wonderful CG Pro community. Without guidance from you and the knowledgeable teachers, I would not have known how to start this project, let alone bring it to completion. The guest speakers were also invaluable. Having never made a narrative film before, the knowledge they shared about story, lighting, and cinematography provided so much clarity to the myriad of decisions I made along the way. I'm excited to continue learning and am already starting my next personal project."Â
