What students say, in their own words

Micro dramas audience and better to go with their flow

It was interactive.. i liked the activities

If possible please cover whole part. Like word creation etc.

It's very good and interesting. It would be more beneficial if other points are also explained a bit even if it's in summary

I loved the way they guided us everyone knows how to write a story but in this workshop they taught us how to layer a story and add cinematics to it

It was a wonderful experience, the teachers had so much to teach us and i loved the way they taught us.

It was a nice start. I am looking forward for more

The class was effective and the no nonsense approch was good over all

It was very amazing and engaging session. I have attended few workshops on screenplay writing. But honestly speaking the speaker was really knowledgeable and having so much to share with the participants.

The wiring exercises at the Retreat made me jump up and go about it like never before. The structure and the mentors were great. It’s not like I haven’t been writing earlier. But here, I got exactly what I needed to feel confident and I learnt how to actually go about doing what I wanna do - screen writing.

Had a great time, I thank you Forge for giving me the space, time and honest feedback to start my screenwriting journey. Allthough not perfect it did accomplish the job of putting you into the shoe of a screenwriter for sometime atleast. Its upto us to continue walking in these shoes.

In simple words I want to say class was easy to grasp, clarity came with examples and after this class your basics will be strong for sure.

I got to know so much about screenwriting, with in depth explanation of all the steps explained by sir. Because of this session I'm truly motivated to write stories with more clarity of each element in story writing. Genuinely, it was an amazing session and Praveen sir's way of explaining is too good. Thank you so much for hosting this session.

Each portion was explained with examples which was insightful

The valid points especially writers role in film production and what makes the script truly effective

I like the way mentor taught us about script writing from scratch. explianed al the points in details while writing the script

Every concept explained with examples and made sure it was understood

it was super helpful and informative w/ relevant examples and amazing explanations. the advice was also super easy to implement and use practically

I don't want to share my name and number on social media and your website. Please don't share my name and number. Thank you sir.

Thanks for the workshop....it was really helpful

The nitty gritty of what a sound designer does

The discussion part and the fact that he explained everything nicely

The energy and knowledge Mr. Pradeep conveyed was good. The samples and the breakdown shown were inspiring.

I really enjoyed how today’s session on sound designing combined creativity with practical learning. I loved exploring how different sounds can completely change the mood and impact of a scene. The hands-on examples and demonstrations made it easier to understand concepts like layering, effects, and sound editing. It was engaging, insightful, and gave me a new perspective on how important sound is in storytelling.

The way the mentor came up with his clarifications to clear certain doubts at the end.

i liked to got to know about how the sound design done

Got onground insights on what's the role of a Director in production

Gave me a time to think about filmmaking

The amount of information given by venkat raghav sir. The way he explaied everything.

Had a great experience. Learned new things, this workshop indeed make a difference to my filmmaking career. Thanks a lot❤️

I highly recommend this program to people with ADHD.

Thanks for an insightful introduction with lots of examples

What I have learned in the workshop is the most important topics and concepts of writing a complete and a perfect scrip for a film to be a great one…. Those who have interest and have not much knowledge about the script writing and film making… this workshop would have helped a lot to improve themselves and lot more topics to be discussed with us from your end. Need one more workshop as continuous one… with some more duration

Hi, I had a really good experience attending the workshop. I learned something new from your session, and I truly appreciate the effort you put into it. Thank you so much for the opportunity! I also wanted to share a small feedback regarding the website. The link shared in the chat only allowed me to watch the video, but I wasn’t able to interact through the chat option. Additionally, the link provided at the end of the session was not accessible for me. It might be helpful to check these issues, as others may have faced the same problem. Overall, it was a great session—thanks again!

The attention to detail. Learning about the structure and components of an efficient screenplay made me go deep in this area. The mentor also put in a lot of effort for this workshop. It was a great experience.

What I loved most about the workshop was how real and immersive it felt. It wasn’t just about learning it made me feel inspired and confident to express my ideas. The supportive environment and hands-on approach made the experience truly meaningful, and it strengthened my passion for creativity.

Fantastic learning journey. Fun-filled activities with some amazing people from all over India, with mentors who were seriously super-excellent. I am now able to get on and 'just write' as the workshop cleared tonnes of cobwebs and clutter in my mind that prevented me from writing properly. I came out of the workshop a totally transformed person.

An unforgettable week filled with stories, creative discussions, and love from all corners of the world!!!

I absolutely loved the location, the people, the concept of a writing retreat in the hills, it gave me all the solace I needed to write

It was a lovely experience where all elements of going viral on insta was covered.

I have been thinking about filmmaking for a long time. And forge really helped me realise those dreams and I'll use all the things I've learned to make more magic! The choice to team us up with other forge members and the mentors that were chosen for us were someone that gelled well with all of our artistic sensibilities. So kudos..... Love, Asishey Uranw

The cinematography workshop was very well conducted and highly informative. The explanations were clear and easy to understand, and the examples provided made the concepts even more practical and relatable. It was a great learning experience, and I really appreciate the effort put into making the session engaging and valuable.

If you’re someone who wants to start creating content but has no clue where to begin then this is your sign. Forge gave me exactly what I was missing: clarity, direction, and the confidence to just start.

The people, the experience, and the feeling was great, never felt that rush and emotions run through your mind and heart, the whole process felt very good, clubbing everything in just few days and helping us in this process was great

Having a great session, useful to begginers for sure

Having a great session. Its usefull to begginers for sure

It was good and ok but could have given more information about the camera angles in screen play

I loved the way of explanation of things and examples provided to explain the content. Looking forward for more workshops sessions.

I started the course as a Finance coach who was unsure of creating content and came out of the 7 days at Goa with a deep understanding of story telling, hooks and scripting for insta in addition to basic editing knowledge . Would recommend this program to content creators who want to know how to become more viral on insta..

I loved that we got to learn everything for bringing an idea from script to the screen in such a short time. Everything was meticulously planned and thoughtfully curated. By they end of the course I got the confidence I was looking for to get into filmmaking.

Participating in The Forge wasn't just another program; it felt like a total mental recalibration. I came in looking for a roadmap, but I walked away with a completely new engine

I loved the overall engagement, the sense of community. Hands on learning and making friends for life who all have the same interest. The mentors did their best to impart their knowledge and make our films better. I really appreciate Forge for making this happen

Forge Creators wasn’t just a course… it was a full-on algorithm awakening 😄 It took me from “just posting” to actually understanding what’s going on behind the screen—how content clicks, why some things stick, and how the algorithm isn’t some mysterious villain… it’s just waiting to be understood (and maybe gently befriended). What stood out? The way everything was rolled out—slow, steady, and super solid. No content chaos, no info overload… just learning that actually lands. You don’t just scroll through it—you grow through it. Somewhere between reels and realisations, I found more clarity, more confidence, and a stronger creator voice. And the best part? I didn’t just gain insights… I gained a whole crew that gets it—and the jokes that come with it 😄 Forge gave me a community I’m definitely keeping for life—people who hype you up, call you out (nicely), and grow with you.💛

Guys, you just rekindled my love for filmmaking which I was very close to losing. Thanks a lot.

My life has taken a surprising turn. Not much has changed on the surface but I feel like an upgraded version of myself – a pro max with many new features. I was in Goa from 9 to 16 Feb attending a film making bootcamp organized by Forge by LevelUp Learning. At first I was sceptical but I am glad I took a chance because it was as genuine as it gets. There were real professionals teaching the real craft with industry grade equipment. It was incredible. It was like being at Universal Studios with multiple groups shooting multiple sequences all around me. There was tremendous opportunity for intellectual and creative stimulation. I cannot remember the last time I felt so excited and alive. So present in the moment. The good news is that I made my first short film from beginning to end, the quality of which surprised everyone including me. The bad news is that my life satisfaction has decreased significantly because now I constantly feel like I am underliving my potential. I can do more and be more.

This has for sure give me a great experience to the new world. It's a big learning for sure.

In one word (Amazing). Loved every bit of it, the way mentors helped in learning. Real time support, Entire team is so polite and generous. Learnt a lot in short span of time.

It was pretty good for a first timer to know about the reality of film making. The screening was the best part.

I was at a crossroads in my life, searching for a path that would give me true happiness and peace no matter the workload or time it demanded. Films had always fascinated me, and deep down, I always wanted to create one of my own.I had tried before, but I lacked confidence, the right team, and a clear direction. That changed when I joined the Forge Filmmaking Workshop.This experience transformed me. Today, I see a new version of myself someone ready to sacrifice time and comfort to bring a vision from paper to screen, and to feel the purpose that comes with it.Thank you for helping me rediscover who I am, reminding me of my goals, and giving me the confidence to chase them. I highly recommend the Forge Filmmaking Workshop to every cinephile and anyone who dreams of making films.

Loved it and this is the best thing I have done in ages

The people. Rahuls classes. Prakritis mentorship. Abhijeeths patience in teaching me to write a short division. Every part of it was great.

Loved it too much. Can't wait to be there someday as a proud alumni or may be mentor/speaker

I absolutely loved the entire experience. The way everything was curated — the curriculum, the flow of sessions, and how each topic was taught and then practically implemented — was excellent. The mentors were fantastic and constantly pushed us to step out of our comfort zones while always being open to answering questions and guiding us whenever needed. A special mention to the production team as well, who were available at any time of the day and always ready to come down and help in every possible way. The storytelling session that Rahul started with deserves a special mention — it immediately clicked and made us feel that the entire trip was already worth it, even though it was just the first day. Overall, it was a truly great experience.

Live example of the subject i.e., is so easy to understand

Script writing explained in a very simple yet innovative way. Lots of takeaways from it. will help in shaping the idea of a film in a constructive way.

It's was great. Learn the basics of screen writing. Thank you team levelup

The whole time of workshop is a bit lengthy. It can be a little shorter and crispy

I think it a new concept for the people who wish to enter into filmmaking and this app is doing well to guide them.

I really like the way of teaching. They make interaction beginner friendly and use easy language to understand better about cinematography and lighting

The teachings and techniques of Cinematography. I love how he explained the 4 Ws - What, Why, Where and Who. And the basics of exposure. Really helped me alot!!!

The main thing i love it is the technique of 4 W’s that would be very helpful to us and to be pratice in reality

The workshop was amazing. Everything was well taught. It was made super easy to understand shots, scenes, cinematography, sound etc.

The minor and every single details about bhramayugam movie were explained very well with so much detail and examples and also talked about the shots used in the movies

Interactive. Everyone can share there pov no mater if it's right or wrong.

Everything from the longline session to the Colour discussion it was was brainstorming.

It was nice that session was an open forum of discussion that everybody can chime on on their insights with the host.

The mentor was experienced and brought a wealth of knowledge, but I wish there had been more slides and that he could have expanded the classes. This would have given us a deeper glimpse into his expertise, allowing us to learn even more.
