Tuesday wrapped up the fourth session for each of the Virtual (on-line) Casablanca Expert Workshops I have conducted. This was a new experiment for me, to see if an on-line workshop would work for the learner (and the teacher as well). And I must say it was a resounding success!
I set these workshops (two different sessions, one advanced and one intermediate/novice) up for folks who might find it challenging to take the time away from their business or home, and also for folks who are looking for an economical alternative to a hands-on workshop in a city far away from their home (what with airfare, hotels, ground transportation, etc).
The participants say they have really enjoyed the experience... the 3-hour sessions are just the right length to learn a lot without information overload, and that the convenience of learning from their home/office has been awesome. Here are voluntary comments from two participants who shared the following after today's sessions:
"Today was absolutely GREAT in Chet's Advanced Class! I cannot wait to make cool 3D Titles after Chet took us through every box and every dial to turn, the settings to get scenes quickly on the Internet with Media Manager, audio tricks and steps that just make editing easy and fun!
Chet's website is packed with information, but the class puts you in 'GET 'R DONE Mood'! Thanks Chet and be sure get yourself registered for the next virtual class!
'It's your Editor..............Use it!'

"Chet Davis/Casablanca Expert’s Virtual Workshop in short is a Win-Win and excellent value.
In detail, this is the future for Teaching Workshops in my opinion.
Let’s see. You spend 3 hours every 2 weeks for 4 meetings, a total of 12 hours of teaching with you at home, watching Chet’s Casablanca screen on your computer, using your own Casablanca equipment with the ability to download of the entire teaching session and practice on your own. Three hours is about right judging from going through Casablanca University for Novice to Advanced and attending a number of seminars.
The pluses are you do not leave home, miss work, drive to the airport, leave your car, go through the hassles of travel, rent a car and get a hotel room on the other end, undergo 8 hour sessions for several days, each of which leaves you “brain dead” at the end of the day.
Chet is generous with his time and certainly know his subject.
