Total waste of money - nothing to learn
"It's the most useless video lesson I have ever seen and is a complete fraud. Please watch the video lesson and you would know yourself. He talks about lighting a night scene and goes to cut the light that is coming in from the top but he could not and he admits it. And so it doesn't look like a night at all as there's sun light coming from the top. And that's it. There's not even a practical lamp or anything to show the motivation of the light. You can see him just walking across the room to try a few things which he can't achieve. It's like ' oh this is the best I could do'. You could watch any free youtube lesson and learn more from it. Why should we pay for such a video? It's totally unprofessional. Please watch the video - mainly the night lighting one. There's hardly anything to learn. It's laughable. It's the most unprofessional online lesson I have ever seen. I want my money back. This is fraud."

Really informative
"The course was really informative and I learned some stuff for sure. The thing I would have liked to have seen is lighting other shots besides a mid/close up. If you had just shown us some wides then we would be set to go."

Good but quite basic
"It is a good course from spenser sakurai, I just hoped he went little more in depth in lighting different angles of a location."

It's okay.
"This course is nothing new and not even a creative way to teach beginners.I would recommend this to people with zero experience in lighting."

Very good lesson!
