Great teacher! Very patient and helpful!
Anton, 30 lessons with BenBen is very knowledgeable in all aspects of video production and editing! I've been working with Ben in Davinci Resolve for the past few weeks and he has helped me significantly in understanding the workflow and details of this program.
I am deeply passionate about media arts and specialize in a personalized approach to education. I teach photography and filmmaking in non-profit, corporate, and higher education contexts, running online classes through the University of Minnesota and guest lecturing at Amherst College.

Provided exactly what I needed
I learned the basics of video editing with Resolve - how to build a timeline, import clips, trim them to fit, add a voiceover, and add subtitles. That's all I really needed to know and Ben was excellent in showing me how. We did have a problem with the sound of my clips, and neither of us were able to resolve it. It still hasn't been resolved. So it's back to this drawing board on the sound aspect of my video. But the rest of it? I'm very satisfied.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor
Ben is teaching me about wildlife photography as I am going on a safari again. So Ben is helping me to prepare for different situations on photographing animals at waterholes, galloping herds of oryx, birds in flight, wild dog packs, etc., - at different times of day and under different weather conditions. Ben is very pleasant to work with and very knowledgeable. He is also helping me to navigate the complexities of the Nikon D500 since I upgraded from D3500, a major step up!

Great
My daughter is motivated and needs to learn Premier Pro so Ben got us off to a fast start with practical skills to apply. There is a lot to learn and Ben was able to provide a solid foundation to launch from. We’ll be back.

Ben is fantastic!
I had very little experience with DaVinci prior to our first session together and learned so much from Ben. He is extremely knowledgeable of not only the software but how to build videos that are captivating and interesting to the viewer. Ben is patient and gave me so many useful tips. I look forward to working more with him and would highly recommend Ben!

a terrific teacher!
I was rusty with or just unfamiliar with so much of Premiere Pro. Had not used it for. year. Ben was an excellent coach and guide. After just a couple of lessons I feel able to work independently.

Adobe Premiere Expert
Ben was super helpful. I am experienced with Adobe Premiere but knew there were still a lot of things I didn’t know. Ben explained a lot of complicated things to me in a simple way. I would definitely work with him again.

Ben was super patient and helpful in answering all my backend computer questions about files, storage and keep the disc cache empty so that I can have everything in place and be ready to make some art.
