    I loved my Cinematography class! Patrick was very knowledgeable and answered all questions everyone had - and there were many! I definitely will take more film classes with DCTV.

    Informative but very heavy on technical aspects and less on artistic side. Good info to know, but wished we had more opportunity to delve into the creative aspects of cinematography.

    The instructor (Leah) seemed like a nice person, but should not be a teacher. It was truly a waste of money. I didn’t even attend the last class because the first two were so meandering and purposeless. I think it’d be smart if DCTV would vet their instructors a bit more if they’re going to charge that kind of money. Thanks!

Question from Per J.
I’d like to take the camera fundamentals and this course back to back, but I’d be missing the lighting course. Will I still be able to keep up?
Answer from Mike A. Verified Educator
Yes, the lighting course is not mandatory. Both Camera Fundamentals & Digital Cinematography: Camera focus primarily on camera skills and knowledge which is supplemented by some lighting exercises as well.
