Ho seguito la Masterclass su Photoeditor&Visualstorytelling e devo dire che sono super soddisfatta della scelta. Sono una fotografa nel settore eventi e ritrattistica, è sempre importante saper comunicare con le immagini in ogni settore e con questo corso ho ampliato, approfondito e imparato ad avere una nuova visione di comunicazione. Non è solo un corso specifico di formazione, è anche un modo per mettersi a confronto in primis con i docenti, preparatissimi, seri ed aperti all’ascolto. Anche il personale del direttivo è molto presente, attento e disponibile ad ogni richiesta e informazione. Qui non solo impari, ma cresci!

Ho frequentato il corso in Fashion Photography e ho trovato questa esperienza molto formativa e stimolante che amplia la cultura sulla fotografia di Moda dal punto di vista teorico e pratico. I docenti sono molto preparati e amano realmente questo mestiere. Durante le lezioni pratiche ho avuto l'opportunità di scattare modelle professioniste che vengono da agenzie di Moda altamente professionali. Ringrazio questa accademia per avermi dato questa opportunità e anche di poter avere la possibilità di avere contatti con agenzie nel mondo del lavoro.

Ho partecipato al corso di Wedding Flower Design e non potrei essere più soddisfatta della mia esperienza. Il percorso formativo è stato completo, stimolante e ricco di contenuti davvero utili. Anche lo stage è stato fondamentale: mi ha permesso di mettere subito in pratica ciò che avevo imparato e di acquisire una sicurezza che non pensavo di raggiungere in così poco tempo.

Grazie a questo corso e allo stage ho avuto l’opportunità di trovare diversi lavori nel settore in brevissimo tempo, cosa che non mi sarei mai aspettata. Mi sono trovata benissimo con l’organizzazione, i docenti e l’ambiente di apprendimento.

Consiglio questo corso a chiunque desideri entrare nel mondo del wedding: è un’esperienza formativa che apre davvero le porte al lavoro!
