Here's a quick summary of the course.
Firstly, I’d like to thank Daryl for the course.* He worked like a mad man to get across a wealth of information.*
*
I found the course very informative, relaxed and fun. It doesn’t take long to realise that Daryl knows the schools business inside out.* Not only did he manage to share very key information, but he also backed it up with some awesome war stories.* Experience counts!
*
During the course Daryl invited in a number of* pro schools suppliers.* It was very useful to get some new contracts and to see first hand what products these guys were offering!
*
The course structure was perfect, with a healthy mix of practical and theory.* Having models to photograph was brilliant.
*
The environment was also very good.* Loads of space and that all important wireless access that us togs love J*
*
Daryl also assembled some displays.* These were excellent and gave me a good understanding on how to promote myself if I decide to go down the school route.
*
Any negatives?* Not really.* As I’ve already said to Daryl, the only thing I would do to improve the course would be to facilitate tethered shooting so that delegates could instantly see some results on big screens.
*
Would I recommend the course?* Yes, of course.* If nothing else, the two days spent with Daryl will give you a good indication of whether schools are for you, allowing you to make the decision before you invest in lights, backdrops, barcode readers etc etc.* The course is worth the cost for this reason alone!
*
Last but not least, there must have been loads of work done behind the scenes to make the course run so smoothly.* I have no doubt that Lynda played a massive part in this, so a big thanks to her!* AND – I almost forgot to say thanks to Air Force Al and Brummy Steve!
Cheers.
