8-student class cap

Where competitors disclose class sizes at all, most run larger. Eight keeps the room genuinely intimate and each actor gets real attention.

Single director, start to finish

The filmmaker who trains you is the same person who directs and edits your Showreel scenes. No handoff to a different production team.

Live editing class

You watch your own scenes cut on a big screen in real time — understanding what the camera actually caught before your reel is finished.

A working studio, not a classroom

Every session happens in the same multi-cam studio used for JJ Splice's professional productions — real cinema cameras, professional lighting and sound.

A real technical curriculum

Lensing, lighting, continuity and blocking are taught as formal subjects, not picked up incidentally on set.

Producer-level understanding

You learn why editing and camera choices are made — not just where to stand on a mark.
