Do you wish to work as a graphic designer in the film industry?
Is another year passing by and you are still stuck in the same unfulfilling job? Have you been telling yourself that you don’t know what you want? Are you scared to go all into your dream?
I hear you. It was scary for me to take the leap of faith and transition before I started working on blockbusters.
But I am so glad I did.
With growing demand for content creation and specialised crew, this is the time to enter the industry. Many people don’t know what they want, so they stay in unsatisfying jobs for years. Others pursue growth.
Which one are you?
In this course, you will prepare to start your first week on a film production with CONFIDENCE. Say goodbye to fear and indecision. Growth and success are awaiting you.
In Module 1 you will break down a script and learn how to begin your workflow. If you are struggling with confidence, Module 2 will prepare you to feel and look like a Pro. Is the fast-paced film industry overwhelming you? I got your back! Module 3 will teach you how to thrive when everyone else is in a panic.
