"An excellent educator."

Jay proved himself to be an excellent educator and filmmaker. He prepared us every week in advance by sending us sides and preparation tips. His training sessions were fun, insightful and, yes, hard work. After each training session, Jay would send us footage which he edited himself, along with a summary of that week's theory and acting/filmmaking tips. I highly recommend Jay as an educator!

"I learned a lot and lost some of the fear."

Thank you for a great week's work. Thanks to all your enthusiasm and support, I learned a lot about film technique and lost some of the fear. I could see a huge difference between my first and last film sessions and began applying the camera techniques exactly as Jay explained them. Thank you.
