My new way of learning - Masterclass (Free Guest Pass)
Having made the decision of leaving school to pursue this path, everything I do comes very new to me and I constantly have to adapt and learn new things to push my career forward. I love it that way. Rather than studying for years only to be able to use that knowledge in the real world once I graduate, I’m in a constant cycle of learning, executing what I’ve learned and back to learning again. It’s amazing to, in fact, visually see the improvement with each client video I work on.
However, since I’m not in school I need to find new ways to gather that knowledge in order to become better at what I do. Up until now, I’ve always used Youtube to learn new things but that’s changed. I still use Youtube for quick tips and tricks but for learning from the experts in the industry my go-to platform has become Masterclass. I’m amazed by how many celebrities and professionals Masterclass have been able to create a class with, some of which have never presented any sort of online-class before.
Not only have I learned more about the world of filmmaking and video but also about business and how to approach new clients, job offers and honestly how to make my business more successful in general. These are a few classes I’m currently watching or have already completed:
Martin Scorsese - Filmmaking
Chris Voss - The Art of Negotiation
Hans Zimmer - Film Scoring
Jeff Goodby & Rich Silverstein - Advertising
Garry Kasparov - Chess
Gordon Ramsey - Cooking
Phil Ivey - Poker
Daniel Pink - Sales and Persuasion
I’m usually quite skeptical when it comes to online classes and lessons but I’m truly fascinated by what Masterclass has been able to pull off. The video quality, storytelling and attention to detail of every class are unlike any other online course I’ve seen before. You could almost think they’re paying me to say this but in fact, it’s the opposite, I’m paying them. What a world.
I currently have three guest passes, so if you’re interested in any Masterclass, feel free to reach out to watch it!
Update: Unfortunately, all guest passes have been given away.
