“After 20 years of commercial grading on a wide variety of platforms, I recently found myself in a position where I needed to be able to get up to speed on Resolve very quickly and I did not have the time or the luxury to be able to learn it ‘on the job’. Without hesitation I contacted Warren and explained my requirements and he tailored a two day Resolve course, specific to my needs that was focused on advanced colour correction techniques. I can’t recommend it highly enough, it was an investment in my future career, that ensured that I learnt the system correctly from the beginning and enabled me to compete at the top of my game and not worry about my lack of in-depth understanding of the Resolve from holding me back.”

“Our training with Warren Eagles was a really great experience. The two days were worth it, as he carefully monitored our steps
to make sure we’re all on the same page. All the explanations were clear, and all our questions were answered in a detailed manner.
This kind of training experience was epic.”

“Warren’s class was awesome. I got my moneys worth on the first day, I was worried it was going be 3 days of PowerPoint presentations!”

“The course was very informative and educational. I especially like that there was an extra day where the instructor accommodated our questions and discussed specific issues each of us had to deal with back home. I gathered valuable information that I was able to use immediately on my next grading session. The course included lessons on both the technical and creative sides of color grading. Kevin has thorough and in depth knowledge of Film Master. He gave us an honest assessment of its capabilities and limitations. Who knew that the “Book M” button doesn’t really do anything? I would recommend the master class to people with at least a year of experience color grading using Film Master.”

“Warren’s class was a great learning experience for me, even though I’m an Online Editor / Colorist with over 13 years Broadcast TV experience. He has a wealth of knowledge and a great way of communicating concepts in an easy going and relaxed way. I highly recommend his courses!”
