I have learned so many useful tips for navigating the industry. I also know the certain aspects of my reporting that can be worked on, so I will strive to apply what I learned whenever I am on air. I think hearing lots of perspectives on my work really opened my eyes to things I need to change, but also things I do well.
Taryn Jacobs
There were so many amazing things about this cohort, but if I had to pick one, I’d say how I feel so much more confident in what I’m doing (fixing my reel and seeing the good as well as the things that needed tweaking about it) and how to use that reel to demonstrate my abilities.
Nolan Harmon
This cohort has helped me get out of my comfort zone with not just networking but asking for feedback on my reel.
Jake Vanderbroek
What I liked best was the individual office hours that gave us a chance to sit down with you and get specific feedback. I can immediately take what I’ve learned and build a reel that’s ready to submit wherever. I also really appreciated the advice about networking.
Tia Reid
What I liked best about the cohort was the connections I’ve made. This was an amazing group of talented individuals. My skills will improve as I move forward in my career, but the feedback I received has already given me a big improvement.

Rich, the tools you taught us are so valuable, and using them in my day-to-day life has already made a difference in my actions.

I really enjoyed the one-on-one session (with Rich) because I was able to get some great feedback on several different things that I needed to work on. Being able to get tailored feedback to my situation was incredibly helpful.
Ben Acker
I liked having the extended time with just Rich to hear more thorough feedback from an industry vet on my demo tape. The peer review process was also beneficial to me because I get 10 other sets of eyes on your material and more opinions on how I can be even better.

Being able to take some of the networking skills and putting them into good use. I’ve already ben more confident reaching out to people for networking purposes and for job opportunities.

Seeing what the insiders of the industry want out of a demo reel is huge for me. I’ve been doing my reels differently this whole time!

This course not only helped me with honing my craft, but I can build my resume with this course attached to it.

The takeaways from this course are massive, but they’re also transferring into my actual craft which is incredibly cool.
