Testimonials

"Instructors were very knowledgeable, very good instructors - awesome!"
-Anette Haellmigk, Director of Photography, Big Love, HBO

"Createasphere VariCamp takes away the mystery of shooting with a Panasonic HD camera. Collaborating with your peers and learning the camera capabilities thru hands on experience was a valuable asset."

"Excellent instructors with a ton of information in 3 days." -Larry Chong

"This workshop is a marriage between digital arts and cinematography. The comprehensive material becomes a field guide." -Yousef Linjawi

"I have a better understanding of the particular camera that my company uses. I am now able to go out and tech these cams with confidence. I also gained knowledge on newer cameras that could be of use to me and my company in future use."
-Jay Wiggins

"The instructors spoke of the whole spectrum from technical aspects to creative looks. Their synergy (and bantering back and forth) was a good insight as to how different approaches adapt to the technology. I also liked the fact that they spoke to us, not at us, answered all the questions we threw at them and made it a very enjoyable 3 days. I would definitely recommend this to any of my peers or new people getting into the biz." -Todd Burns, VER - Miami, Engineering Svcs

"On a personal note: I started out in the 80’s as a still photographer and a camop for ESPN and ABC Sports. My love for shooting was a driving force back then. As I moved thru this biz, from a Truck Engineer, Editor for both Linear and Non-Linear, etc. I turned to more of a technical side of production. With this Varicamp, I have now been reinvigorated to get out and start shooting again! After speaking with these instructors, especially Bob Primes, I can’t wait to get my hands on a Varicam and go shoot something…

On a business note: As an engineer prepping these cameras for clients, I now know how to properly “set-up” a camera and if the clients ask about certain looks, I can guide them on this and help them achieve the “look” that are after."
-Todd Burns, VER - Miami, Engineering Svcs

"I thought the instructors were very good. The fact that they were from three very different backgrounds really provided an interesting perspective. They were able to pull from there individual past experiences and bring it back home to make sense for me. Very good choice of instructors." -Jay Wiggins

"I enjoyed the curriculum covering general video production principles ... color and characteristic curves. The instructors were very insightful on these basic video principles and more importantly very thorough in applying these principles to the VariCam in specific. I now better understand how my camera works."
-Owen Smith

"I was aware of all the VariCams could do, now I know how to use them." -Michael Caradonna

"Excellent workshop!" -Jay Elkayam

"Provides fun demonstrations and gives ability to continue exploration." -Owen Smith

"Excellent learning opportunity you can’t get anywhere else." -Eason Duncan

"Worth the money, which gives a great take or impact on operations of the camera.  And very professional instructors. Awesome experience!" -Stan Pechner -Kevin Wright
