Of all the schools that I have been to, including those not related to film, Film Connection had the most lasting impact on me. I was immersed in the actual set and picking up on a lot of good practices my mentor and other professionals were doing. My questions were comprehensively addressed either by my mentor or the other experts that I got to meet. This helped me ease up on the environment where I will soon be a part of. Going to Film Connection three years ago was the most important decision that I have ever made. I am very glad I went through it.

Terence F. - San Jose, California

Terence F. San Jose, California Four years ago I signed up to Film Connection’s mentor-apprentice program and I am so glad I did. I was given the opportunity to work alongside actual professionals and also to use the same gear as the pro’s use. Let’s get this clear, it was an apprenticeship and not an internship. I was not just used as a glorified coffee boy or laundry collector. I learned a craft that would ultimately transform my entire life. I now work at a film publishing house near Santa Clara, CA and I love it and would heartily recommend www.filmconnection.com to anyone.

Wesley T. Fremont, California Thanks to everyone at Film Connection, and especially my mentor, Terry, im well on my way to becoming a cinematographer in Hollywood. He has taught me just about everything he knows about film making, which is considerable i can tell you. He has been giving me regular assignments that i must complete, on time before i can progress. He is very motivational and constantly pushes and encourages me to go further. Next week he will be introducing me to various work associates and friends within the studio system. Hopefully it will pan out for me. Either way i am so glad i am doing this course. It is very worthwhile. Thank you www.filmconnection.com.

Todd H. - San Jose, California

Todd H. San Jose, California I'm doing what I believe I was put on this planet to do, that is to make films. This is thanks to the superb training I received from Film Connection, and more specifically my one on one mentor, Philip. His task was to teach me all the fundamentals of film making, but he went a lot further than that. He also taught me all those little things that often take many years to learn. He also advised me to enroll in a basic electronics workshop so that if any equipment decides to pack up, I would be better prepared to fix it or find a work around. For the last 3 years I have been working at a small production house near San Francisco and I can honestly say those 3 years have been the best of my life. If you have a love of film making and are eager to learn, why to go to www.filmconnection.com and see how they can help you.
