Thank you so much for this course; it's been incredibly insightful and informative (I've nearly filled up a notebook with all your hints and tips!). The clear information and sheer wealth of knowledge shared has instilled a new sense of inspiration and confidence in me to apply for roles in Film and TV as I feel I have a far better understanding of the industry now than when I did two days ago before taking this course.
