The Neo

So, going into the starter course, I had already had a bit of previous knowledge already, but is been so long since I shot, I knew I needed a refresher. FTF was always a favorite because of the quality of work. Immaculate. The starter course out me back in track, AND THEN SOME!! Highly recommended for starters and or if you just wanna stay sharp in your craft

Great way to start learning process.

I have been creating videos for almost a year and try to self-teach myself by watching videos and jumping from one to another to find specific information.
I decided to try the starter course from full-time filmmakers since I have not saved enough to pay for the full course and I haven't finished all of it yet and already answered a lot of questions I had and is taking me in a good direction.

Amazing course

Amazing course! A must-have for beginners! Invest in this course if you are starting and want to become a full-time filmmaker.
I purchased the FTF and I love it! After a few hours of study, I learned all the basics of creating videos. The quality of my videos has grown exponentially

Intro - Worth It!

The introduction course was worth the price. It gave a simplified teaching from an experience professional that helps a novice get a big picture overview of everything filming requires.

Thankfully, they didn’t overwhelm you, but inspired you to want to learn more!

Full Time Filmmaker is awesome

I feel like the full time starter course helped me tremendously with incorporating different angles into my edits, after watching the the whole starter course I would say the only thing that was a bit annoying was the fact that Full Time Filmmaker incorporated info on how to properly set up a cannon camera but did not incorporate the information properly needed to set up a Sony camera. I also loved the amount of plug ins that were given, I have already made great use of the sound affects

Amazing course with many surprises

Amazing course with many surprises.

Very good organized course with a lot of practical tips which surprised me. I'm glad that I spend these money to buy it and take the time to watch it.

Almost all of the lessons strengthened me in different areas and give more ideas to apply in the videos. Also give me understanding of the "big" picture. One sentence really was printed in my mind - "Practice every thing you've learn". Practice, practice, practice. That's the key.

One thing I wish maybe to have more is another bonus video with some inspired story from the real world. This is what motived the people. I can see how the people are tired "just from talk" or empty words. The real stories are what move the people forward.

Another good thing for beginners might be more basic tips on editing on post production and more lighting tips.

Specially for me this course was a real blessing.

A MUST for Beginners!

I watched much of Parker's free content while building my Youtube-Channel based out of Austria. I'm a physician doing educational content for anatomy students, and I went from zero to 65k subscribers and over 15 million views in less than two years. I know it seems not much for an international audience, but my content is very niche (dissections of real human bodies) and in German. Now I bought the Beginner course, and even if I knew and applied most of the stuff already, I wished I had bought it earlier. It's the perfect content for beginners - all you need to know to instantly improve your videos and have a professional look from the get-go! The LUTS are excellent, and I especially liked his bonus videos on how to build your business. Most successful content creators brag about their earnings or give you useless tips that are no use if you're at the beginning. You will NOT find a better or more concise synopsis for your first steps! So save a few bucks and enroll in the Beginners course! Greetings from Innsbruck, Austria! :-)

The level he brings to even an intro…

The level he brings to even an intro course is amazing and super inspirational/Motivating. Once watching and starting a course you get a sense of momentum that maybe you would feel in school. The idea is that you are making progress and have an end goal. And I am just getting started, but already feel a lot more comfortable. The biggest thing about learning is that a mentor not only teaches you lessons/knowledge but it also shows you that all your dreams are a possibility. High quality and parker is truly showing his passion for this industry and with his work its just something you cant pass on.

Great course, great instructor

The content and quality of production is great. Parker has extended knowledge on video, from equipment to editing, capturing, lighting, audio and an impressive variety are covered in the course.
He is also a great teacher, with an easy to understand approach.

Full Time Filmmaker is really, really worth it

This course surprised me. When I first knew about it, I never heard anything about it or the guy behind it. I just saw an ad on YouTube, and I thought, hey for a little amount of money I could try the starter course. It seemed really professional, so I thought I'd give it a try. I admit it, I was skeptical. The starter course was cheap, so I thought that yeah, it's probably a trick they use to introduce me to the main, more expensive course, they won't probably teach me anything really useful, because the really useful stuff is in the more expensive and comprehensive course. But hey maybe I will learn a trick or two, so it's fine considering the amount I'm paying. Oh boy, I couldn't have been more wrong and I'm happy I was wrong. The starter course is rich in content, and full of stuff you could immediately implement to improve the quality of your videos. To me, the sections about lighting and composition were the most useful, alongside the video on editing tricks. I am a beginner, and as almost all beginners I was looking for the holy grail on Youtube, watching tons of tutorials. But the truth is that it is best to invest some money to have a comprehensive guide from someone that really knows what he's talking about, who really knows what YOU need to become a pro, because he's done it himself. No need to spend so much time experimenting on your own and probably never getting it right, because some things either you learn them from someone, or else you will never know they even existed. Do yourself a favor, if you really want to get serious with video making, and get this course. You can always buy the base course, and give it a try, because from the starter course already you can clearly see that there is some serious content on Full Time Filmmaker. Thanks to this course I now know what kind of lights I need to shoot the videos I want, and also what lens and other equipment I need. I'm on a tight budget for now as I'm literally beginning to shoot my first videos, but as soon as I save some money, I will definitely buy the full course. So so much material!

The starter course is awesome

The starter course is awesome, it literally gives you a whole bunch of nuggets, that if you put it into your work it will change dramatically. I’m looking forward for the rest of the course.
