    Billy Rood's Fashion Photography and FIlmmaking Basics is definitely a requirement for any individual looking to create and maintain a successful Photography business. The atmosphere, advice, and anatomy were all perfectly balanced to provided a unique and useful experience.

    The location of the class was right off the red line, making it easily accessible. The interior was impressive and there was lots of space. The set up was a U shape and a tv at one end for everyone to see. This round-table like setup allowed for a homogeneous flow. I would hope that all classes I attend in the future would have a similar set up.

    The content of the class was concise, yet open to back and forth discussion. This allowed every student to get the most out of the lesson, if they chose to. Billy Rood's information was helpful to everyone; from the novice to the veteran. It was very helpful and always had a great answer to every question. Sometimes the best answer came in the form of a question, as he probed our thoughts to cater toward each person's individual scenarios. By doing this we came out the class with exclusive real world knowledge that we may use when dealing with our own business.

    The structure of the class was built well into clear and simple sections. It was easy to take notes and section off our thoughts and questions for a particular subject. It was semi chronological as to how you start your business and deal with clients, and beyond.

    I'm extremely grateful to have taken this class. I look forward to future class and workshops provided by Billy Rood. If you are interested in taking your Photography seriously this class is a necessity for you.
