I enjoy learning from Shane Hurlbut
I enjoy learning from Shane Hurlbut. Even if you've already made one or two films, Shane has a lot of tips that can help up your game. I definitely recommend his program.

I have been a member for so many years…
I have been a member for so many years (since the Shane Inner Circle), then I stopped my subscription and returned this year.
I work in the entertainment industry, but I never had a formal education in my background. The FA help me find many answers that I have all the time.

Filmmakers Academy is the best!
I really enjoy being a Filmmakers Academy member. I've been in this community for 4 years and have learned A LOT. There is so much content that covers cinematography, editing, producing, commercial directing, focus pulling, and color correction. They've recently added monthly Spotlight Coaching calls where you get to ask your questions personally to the instructors like Shane Hurlbut, ASC or David Cole. Also, the recent masterclasses they've done have been so valuable and such high production value and are free for annual members. I think it's definitely worth the investment and can't wait to see what they keep adding.
