"I've worked more in 2 weeks than I have in the last 6 months because of Filmmakers Academy. Their content and Spotlight Coaching Calls led to a shadowing opportunity with a well known director, and now I'm a working filmmaker in Los Angeles. Thank you FA!"

"I dropped out of film school because of Filmmakers Academy. Despite my film school education, I felt unprepared for a professional set until I joined Filmmakers Academy. Shane Hurlbut, ASC, provided hands-on learning through invaluable tutorials, making me confident and ready. Hours spent in the Academy’s library gave me practical insights in lighting, grip, and camera work. Thanks to this platform, I’m now a working professional. If you’re serious about elevating your craft and breaking into the industry, this is the resource you need.”

"This masterclass will save you years of in-the-field experience. At first glance, I thought, “I’ll probably know most of this content.” NOPE, NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! I watched it top to bottom and immediately made a to-do list. I have no doubt it’ll be on repeat on my phone to and from location the next month. Thank you so much Shane and Derek! You’re empowering filmmakers!"
