The next BITV Weekend Intensive is Saturday and Sunday, August 20th and 21st, 10am-5pm. I hold one every month. I train students for two days, and then they get to record demo reels. It's usually $350, but for anyone who mentions 'JOTW' the price is only $200.

Thanks for your time and your amazing newsletter!
