ShotClass Events

A Two-Day Intensive training that will teach you all the skills you need to get started as a professional Camera Assistant, working 'one-out' (a.k.a., on your own) while assisting the DP efficiently. Get ahead in your career with professional education... and win more jobs.

This intensive workshop aims to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of essential cinematographic lighting techniques and more advanced concepts and practices, both in narrative work, and for shooting TVC's, Music Video and high-end content.

ShotClass is introducing bite-sized focus pulling practicals for crew wanting to learn or improve their focus pulling skill-set to a high professional level. These fast-paced, intensive training sessions will allow participants to improve their focus pulling skills fast and get job-ready in the shortest possible time, for a low cost outlay. Running with our 1st AC/Focus Puller 5-Day Certificate Masterclass, these 4 hour sessions offer participants the chance to learn alongside the certificate course students with access to the same instructors and equipment.

If you are serious about becoming a top level professional 2nd AC, this course will help get you there. A great 2nd AC not only knows how to do their job, they are consistently attentive, reliable, responsible and focussed. A team player. Many previous alumni are now actively working as 2AC's and beyond.

If you aim to take yourself to that top-level of 1st AC's, and be in-demand, you need to have the training and skillset to achieve that goal. ShotClass can help with this 5-day masterclass. Every aspect of the course is designed to offer the participants the best opportunity to reach their full potential - quickly. And the methods and processes we teach are industry best-practice, so that means that what you take away at the end of the week, will be in line with the most professional camera departments out there.

Take advantage of this 'one-dayer' to learn all about data management from the guru himself, Bradley Andrew. Deep dive into everything from the role of the Data Wrangler to working on different types of productions, with various software and workflows. Learn back up protocols and troubleshooting issues. Brad is the person many other professional data wranglers refer to for 'best industry practice'... or that tricky conundrum.
