“Thanks to Josh I had the opportunity to put in my Showreel quality footage that helped me to get my first contract within the industry at MPC. During that period I used the techniques that I learned to get better results in my work.”

“The training is great. I am a VFX Supervisor at MPC NY and come from CG/Lightning.
I always look for better ways to express my self to my team and watching your videos certainly helps. Great stuff and keep on making them. Worth every penny. ”

Vadim TurchinMPC VFX / CG Supervisor

“Josh Parks is without doubt the best visiting lecture we have ever had. Having such a deep understanding of the subject of compositing is one thing. The harder part in communicating this to students is a clear and effective manor. Not to hard where people lose interest, not to easy, where people also lose interest but finding just the right balance and injecting this with interesting industry anecdotes and good humour keeps the classroom a vibrant and interesting place.”

Mark WallmanHead of VFX - University of Hertfordshire
