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.

I had the pleasure of connecting with Liz on Wyzant during the development of my film, 1000 Days: The True Story of Maggie and Jonnie. As a co-producer of the critically successful feature Other People's Children, she brings proven experience to every conversation. What truly sets her apart is her genuine desire to help others succeed. She has been incredibly encouraging, offering insightful, practical, and kind guidance that helps you navigate the complex world of film production.

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.
