• 4-Week Online TV/Film Acting Intensive for Beginner

  Anonymous • December 11, 2020
  This 4-week class with acting coach James O'Connor was a great intro class for me. The class was personable and James spent as much time as he could with each of us giving us well-rounded critiques to pursue for the next class and to continue to pursue in our careers. I left this class feeling full and for me that's important! Big Thank you, I look forward to booking with you again soon.

  Absolutely loved this 2-part class! Really looking forward to more cinema classes with this teacher.

• Trailer Editing

  Will R. • August 21, 2019
  The workshop is great for people wanting to understand the fundamental structure of trailers and key elements. For those more advanced, you get to see the instructor's editing workflow in Adobe Premiere Pro. I wouldn't mind if this course was longer and allowed for more time on the editing process. The instructor is great!

• Production Week

  Anneliese D. • June 16, 2019
  Great course for beginners with little or no technical experience. Covered camera, lighting, audio and shooting fundamentals. Small class size and great teacher!

• Bulletproof Filmmaking: Film Grammar

  Anonymous • April 26, 2019
  Frederik was wonderful and full of information! This is not a hands-on course, but provides a solid foundation of language used in the filmmaking business, details about shooting, editing, and the psychological effects of each. Frederik teaches the "rules" of filmmaking...and then teaches you how to successfully break them!

• Producing 101: The Role of the Producer

  Anonymous • January 14, 2019
  Kishori was a knowledgeable and experienced teacher and covered the content well. The class was full of other attendees from various professional backgrounds and it turned out to be a great networking event as well!

  It was a beautiful movie. I had a great time watching it.

• Introduction to Filmmaking

  Patricia B. • August 28, 2018
  I'm so happy I told this class. The class was a hands on immersive experience in creating a film from a short scene. It felt like one week too short. I learned a lot about what aspects of filmmaking I'm interested in and will pursue more thoroughly. Worth the money and time!

• Keeping It Legal

  Joseph V. • August 6, 2018
  Fun class but very educational! Very knowledgeable instructor. Exactly what I hoped it would be. Fully addressed many of my concerns relating to projects I am working on. Thank you.

• Introduction to Storyboarding

  Kelly S. • April 19, 2018
  Joan is phenomenal! A classic art teacher who knows how to help her students grow on an individual level. She met every student at there level of ability and we were all improving - between her tips on drawing and depth of industry knowledge. What a pleasure!

• Video DSLR

  Kelly S. • April 9, 2018
  The instructor was great and answered all the questions the class asked him. And I learned about the fundamentals to the camera, equipment use, and after we shot, I got tips on how to make the film better. Definitely would recommend.

• Introduction to Filmmaking

  Tony H • April 3, 2018
  So many times, we as actors forget the play of acting. You go into class and everything's like, "Great work": like everything's work. At The Barrow Group, it really came from this other perspective: "This is play." That was a really great time. I would say that was my most significant training.

• Introduction to Filmmaking

  Anne H • April 3, 2018
  The Barrow Group was really the institution that taught me how to act. I worked with the best teachers, who taught me why less is really more.

• Introduction to Filmmaking

  Andrew A • April 3, 2018
  I had a great experience with the Barrow Group's Filmmaking for Actors class. The class helped me to jump start my filmmaking 'career' with everything from writing all the way to shooting and editing. One of the biggest takeaways for me was what I learned about screenwriting; having always wanted to write this class provided me with the foundations to take ideas and turn them into fully thought out scripts. It also provided me with experience in every aspect of being on set to create a film; giving me the opportunity to do everything from being a boom operator, to script supervisor, to DP, to director. Over the course of 12 weeks I obtained the abilities to start with an idea, turn that into a screenplay and then bring it to life as an original short film. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who is serious about creating film.

• The Producers: A Videomaking Extravaganza for Arty Kids

  Darlene B • April 2, 2018
  My child attended the Culture Bugs Mini Camp this past summer. It was such an inspiring experience for her. The Director and her staff are just wonderful. The art program is diverse and creative. I'd recommend for any child who is serious about art.

• RG301: Resolve Looks & Matching Masterclass with Warren Eagles of the ICA

  Ricco C • April 2, 2018
  I have taken several of the digital cinema camera classes to bring my skill level up substantially from film to digital cinema workflow. Learning the theory of the science is very important for me. AbelCine explains it all thoroughly. I plan to take all of the AbelCine class offerings. Next to on the job learning, it's better than any film school could possibly offer and at much less the cost.

• Understanding Color & Gamma

  Derek S. • March 1, 2018
  I loved the class. I got out of it everything I could ask for in a 3hr window.

• Introduction to Filmmaking

  Anonymous • January 25, 2018
  An excellent introduction to filmmaking. You learn a bit of everything which is very helpful in deciding which specialty you want to pursue. The instructors were great. They were kind, passionate and sincere about teaching. For anyone interested in film, I'd recommend this class as a great place to start.

• Here Comes Virtual Reality

  This was a very good beginner's overview of VR. The instructor, Bob Sacha, had great energy and patience.

• Video DSLR

  Anonymous • December 11, 2017
  I really enjoyed this class. There was ample opportunity for questions, while still keeping the class moving. We reviewed and refreshed on a lot of camera basics throughout (which was really helpful), and then used those factors to maximize our video/film capabilities with DSLR.

  Class was fantastic! I got a lot of feedback and one on one time with the instructor, very explorative and fun. Instructor answered all my questions and helped me to think of new ways of thinking outside the box. Would definitely take again and recommend a longer course offering if offered again. Software was easy to learn as well.

• Introduction to Filmmaking

  Anonymous • July 17, 2016
  The One Week Seminar was a fulfilling experience. If you have even the slightest interest in film but find yourself stumped as to where to begin then this is the place for you. The week flies by but you would be amazed at how much you can retain.The curriculum covers all the fundamental processes of filmmaking from development to distribution. There is a lot to take in. Especially when you get into camera or editing specifics. While some material may come off as too dry ( I didn't think so but not everyone may agree) it is important to understand all the mechanics of the filmmaking process. The instructors were emphatic and their unique idiosyncrasies make them and their lessons memorable. With only a few hours to impart as much as possible, they try their best to answer every question and develop the interests of all the students. Given the time constraints it is your responsibility to take what they give you and run with it. They recommend a ton of great reading material and online resources to complement what they have taught in the classroom. Be diligent with your note taking and it helps to come prepared with ideas for a film or screenplay. Don't worry if you miss something because they do provide informative handouts. Ask as many questions as possible! Before, during, and after class. Get everyone's contact information. Stay in touch. Your relationship with the instructors does not end with the seminar. IFI is passionate about building a film community and are making strides to improve with each successive seminar. A great group of individuals who love to hear what their students have to offer and promote a collaborative environment in and out of the classroom.

• 8 Week Directors ACCESS Observer Workshop

  Anonymous • April 13, 2016
  A terrific workshop that provided hands on experience directing actors in scene work. Jeremy explained in great detail the various means to directing actors to deliver the performance the director needs. A brief background on directing was given, along with acting exercises and the varied ways to approach a scene. Jeremy also provided literature references for outside reading. Without a doubt, this is a beneficial workshop for aspiring directors and screenwriters wishing to expand their scope of understanding. The atmosphere of the workshop was relaxed, supportive and communal. Great, great experience.

  I took the film class with Hall Powell and it was fantastic. We practiced a mock film shoot, he explained a multitude of film related techniques, and we practiced editing with Final Cut Pro. I would highly recommend this class and suggest it for anyone who's interested in film.

  Professor Hall Powell is a fantastic teacher. He was able to teach me a ton of production techniques and styles in a short amount of time. Hall was always available for all of my questions, and made sure I understood something before moving on. He really cares about the material which makes a huge difference. I am definitely staying in touch with him as he has a wealth of knowledge and great connections. Great teacher, great person, great contact. Sincerely, David
