Kathleen S.

1 Film lesson

The impetus for me seeking guidance on photography is some upcoming travel, and Wes not only offered me practical advice regarding taking pictures and handling film while traveling in a foreign country, but also got me started on my film photography journey by offering a great tutorial with super helpful graphics and easy-to-understand tutoring and guidance. He followed up after our session with links to local film developing recommendations and other information I needed.
Barbara H.

5 Film lessons

Nelson provided excellent guidance in helping my young grandson create a short video for film school application. Nelson diligently prepared for each tutoring meeting. Nelson works in the film industry and has the perfect background to complete this project. He is very patient in providing assignments regarding script, shooting video, editing and feedback at each session. He is professional, polite, and has great teaching skills. I highly recommend Nelson for any film/video project.
Harper C. T.

1 Film lesson

We went over adding transitions, text, shot compositions, and where to cut for continuous takes (very helpful!). He was good at communicating and has a sense of humor which is great because sometimes the material can be dry, and I never felt bored. This guy strikes me as someone who knows a great deal about the film industry, and his price point makes the lessons well worth the money! Would def recommend him for film editing and film lessons in general.
