I already attended the Direction course and am excited to learn with Praveen again for screenplay basics. Very useful for my upcoming 3D Animation short film. Thanks for the awesome inputs.
I know nothing about movie making....so I learnt every bit of this live session...I will join advance classes once I started earning.
The practical examples, the technical process, the easy explanations are few things which I loved.
I have learnt basics of film direction in a simple way.the teaching was good.thanks to the entire level up team.
Nice insights into basics of film making.
Good workshop for those that want to learn the basics of the 3 stages of filmmaking.
learned so much about the filmaking and the process that it goes through, about blocking and stagging and litlle bit of what goes into the a scene and a shots and angles great experience
It was my very first experience to gain some knowledge regarding basics of directing and It was really worth taking this whole conceptual class.. I admired how everything was explained in clear most detailed manner in a sequence which kept me glued to the screen wanting to know, listen and learn more the whole time... so thank you praveen .. Looking forward to attend the next advanced direction class ... hoping the timings works out... appreciate the entire learning experience..🙌
Great overview of the Direction process in 3 hours
It is incredible that such an in-depth look into filmmaking could be boiled down into a 3-hour seminar.
Was very helpful! The speaker was clear and concise and his explanations made sense. Loved it
Loved entire course nd presentation 🙌Definitely best course for beginners 💯All aspects are covered for beginners
It's an innovative initiative to conduct an online class on filmmaking. Just the right note for movie enthusiasts to begin or expand their learning journey!
I liked mostly the structure of the program and the way it is communicated.
This is really an eye opening workshop for all filmmakers should attend. Thank you
It is overwhelming and this information is very helpful for me to be more passionate to become a director
I have experienced the honesty and passion what you are putting across. Wish you all the best.
The speaker was very helpful, clear and concise. It was understandable for a beginner like me and helped me get through the various aspects of film. Loved it
Content delivery and detailed explanation about all the topics with video samples seems like a very engaging and easy to understand. Mise en Scene was my favourite topic.
Examples with existing videos and perspective paradigm shift from viewer to direction
yeah, it is good and very knownledgeble about the direction and filmmaking and understanding of how things works in a scence and in film.
Tried to cover a lot of topics in 3hrs of time, which is good.
It was a very informative session especially for the aspiring filmmaker
I loved the workshop it was full of knowledge which I was not aware of looking forward to roll in the course
I love how Praveen talked about the real ground-level experience of direction. Had a great time!
It's is good Programme, which is minimum time you get lots of knowledge
It was my first hand experience into film making and direction. Getting insight in the film making will be helpful in planning my own short videos that I do for my business and try my hands into making of catchy and creative videos.
Praveen sir gave me a very different perspective to analyse movies. I learned a lot about direction and cinema. Thank u levelup for giving such a wonderful class
It was a very good session. I am very passionate about the film industry, but I had no knowledge of it. Now I have very good knowledge of the basics of screenplay.
I was quite curious and worried about the 3-hour class because it was online. Obviously, distractions would happen, etc. After entering the session, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen for 3 hours. That's because the session was interesting, clear, and informative. Entering with zero knowledge, I exited the session feeling like a moderately knowledgeable individual. Now, I am comfortable and familiar with camera direction, staging, blocking, etc.
I was very impressed with the course content and Mr Praveen's teaching style. The course covered a wide range of topics, from the basics of filmmaking to more advanced concepts. Mr Praveen was able to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise way, and he was always willing to answer questions.
Attended the screenwriting workshop already,and same as it the direction workshop is such an easy to follow one for someone totally new to the field.
It was a very knowledgeable session & Praveen shared some very interesting insights about how a cinema is made.
It’s a very good experience and very helpful to who are planning to make a short great job
It's a new learning and levelling my view
Had fun and enjoyed the well presented workshop.
Excellent., very new things for me , little language issues but overall excellent
The real life movie examples to illustrate concepts were too helpful
The way the session has transitioned and the areas covered are pretty helpful.
One of the Best ! Just go ahead and book it!
Since I have dabbling in writing in my own way without any guidance for years now, I wanted a professional lens to look at my own work and sort of analyze what I am doing wrong and right. Praveen, by talking about the very basics, in the simplest of fashion - and with examples of mainstream films - brought out some hard truths that I felt I had been ignoring. My purpose was solved, very simply. Kudos!
A fine experience. The way event was conducted and presenting the content relevant. Good. Also the fellow participants were curious enough. Overall, purpose was done.
Explaining concepts through storytelling is very useful. Even without seeing slides I can remember the story told in class
It was great.. learnt so many new things and aspects
Being a beginner to this journey it was interesting to know some of the the ground work that happens behind the big screen play which we are all big fans of . This work shop is a great start to shape out the passion of writing into a right form. The mentor was through and made it easy to understand.
Learned new things, will implement and try to narrate stories in a better way
I really liked how Praveen patiently guided us throughout each component of storytelling and screenwriting in the 3 hour workshop. In particular, the fact that he explained us that storytelling is not always supposed to be linear and it can be non-linear as well really helped me understand the deeper picture about narratives. As an aspiring storyteller, this course really inspired me to continue working towards my larger goal of creating stories around unspoken narratives.
Just loved how his way of speech was so understandable
It was a great start to the world of screenwriting. Mr. Praveen was very knowledgeable and inclusive. Had a great time!
It was really a great workshop, and the initiative you have undertaken is awesome. And very nicely you have included the process of story telling or writing. Also wanted to ask, do I get certificate for attending one day workshop?
The teacher was very good. Even the host was good the teaching was comprehensive and I enjoyed it. I'm glad I joined it
I have really enjoyed the session today. I quite educational and it cleared many doubts I had about screenwriting.
It's very best and easy way for someone to start a career or to start for taking step into your passion. I gained confidence and push to write something 3 hours is best time spent
Though the name is "Ultimate Screenwriting & Storytelling Workshop", the session was a very basic "Storytelling and Script structure" session. But it was very helpful to understand what makes a story and a script. To be frank, that is what is possible in 3 hrs. Thanks LevelUp and Praveen. Hats off to you guys.
The basic concepts of storytelling like the hero's journey are explained and presented with great examples.
The workshop was really great and as a newbie in this field it's amazing to learn from a great teacher.
Not only was the workshop insightful for a first timer like me , but that you walked us through the intricacies each step by little step with a clear defining start right upto endpoint , carving an easy pathway between the SparkPlug of my Dream to call of action ( also known as that proverbial Light at the tunnel )
Amazing workshop by praveen and he made the class so interesting and informative. Looking forward to attend and learn more from his classes
Really good for beginners to get a brief idea about screenwriting. Amazing amount of screenwriting knowledge shared in just 3 hours.
It was a lovely session, filled with interesting and informative insights. Makes you look at storytelling from a different perspective.
3 HOURS JUST FLEW BY! This workshop is a great gateway for any aspiring filmmaker/screenwriter. I did not even realise when the 3 hours came to an end. It was an immersive experience and I will surely be watching all my movies with a new perspective.

Loved the fact that the presenter/ mentor Praveen patiently explained terms and walked us through the very basics and fundamentals. Of course the resources provided are invaluable for beginners on the first step of our very own 'Hero's Journey'! Thank you Level Up Learning :)

It was a good introductory session on screen writing...

It was really good and i would really recommend to my film loving friends out there. Thank you so much Levelup learning and Praveen sir for the class!!❤️
This was a great beginner-level workshop for those relatively new to the field. I do wish it was a little more interactive and lively, but great first experience overall.
I loved the way session started and the amazing examples from movies making the themes much easier to get along with!
I have attended some of other workshops too but this one was pretty explanatory and good.
I loved the way mr Praveen explained screenwriting very clearly n thoroughly with the movie scenes
Loved praveen’s class on screenwriting and storytelling as an amateur…looking forward to the master class.
The way basic fundamentals were taught with using video reference and script reference, also the way he explained was so good that it had a created a new way for my thought process.
