We have an official release date for our newest upcoming course Storyboarding Foundations! The course will launch on Tuesday, September 5th!
Important note!
The course will launch with a discounted price for the launch period, which will end the following Thursday (September 7th).
When the launch period ends on Thursday at midnight, the price of the course will go up and will never drop again. You know the drill.
But that’s not all… Are you ready for this?
Not only will the price go up at the end of the launch, but we’re increasing the prices of our entire course library! That’s right. All of our courses will cost more after September 5th. I’ll provide the actual numbers later on, but I would highly recommend getting any courses you’re interested in sooner rather than later.
So Storyboarding Foundations… What is it about?
This course will help you take that first step to making your film a reality. Storyboarding is one of the most important steps to making a film, and one you should absolutely NOT skip. This course will help you get comfortable with making one yourself, with whatever software you choose, or even using pen and paper. You will not find a more in-depth course on storyboarding anywhere else.
What will you learn?
