Together we have been learning so much. We have not had to buy any special equipment although you do learn about the types of equipment used. Needless to say Nathaniel's Christmas wish list has grown quite considerably.
We have been given a year's worth of online access to the Online Christian Filmmakers Academy. The classes are produced and presented by Ken and Zack Lawrence who are a father and son team who have been working together since 2004 and have more than a decade of experience.
How it works
Lesson Library |
The course is an online program which is digitally streamed from your account. After signing in you will be taken to the home / introduction page. On the left there is a menu with links to the five different modules of the program.
There are five modules to work through.
- The Camera (6 Lessons + 1 Quiz)
- Cinematography (10 Lessons)
- Sound (6 Lessons)
- Pre-Production (5 Lessons)
- Production (6 Lessons)
Tracking the lessons |
- Each of the modules are divided into separate lessons.
- Tracking your progress is really easy. Once you watch a clip you mark it complete and move onto the next lesson.
- Each lesson is titled and below the title you can see the length of the video as well as a short written summary.
- On the module overall page you can see your progress at a glance. Completed lessons show a tick in the corner and partially watched clips show as such.
Lesson page layout |
When you click on a lesson it opens on a new page. On the page you have access to the lesson video and a comments section. In the comment section you can ask questions about the lesson and interact with the instructors.
If there is a lesson download you will find the link on the right hand side of the page. The downloads are in pdf. format.
The program is continuing to grow and as such being updated with bonus documents which include: templates, insider interviews, quizzes and new content. This will be added throughout the year ahead and made available to all new and current students.

Overall
Nathaniel and I have both enjoyed working our way through the lessons. They are well presented and give a very good twaddle free class on the practical aspects of film making. I am really looking forward to Nathaniel using the skills he has learned in this class in the future and if he continues in his passion for film making I will be adding this to his Curriculum Vitae in the future.
Blessings
