Pros & What Seems Strong

These are its strengths:

1. High production value & up‑to‑date tools — For someone already with some basic AI filmmaking knowledge, this seems made to push you further.

2. Instructor credibility — Kavan Cardoza is well known in AI creative spaces. Learning from someone active in that field helps.

5. Updated content — The 12‑month content updates means that as tools evolve, parts of the course may change. Useful in a fast‑moving field.

Considerations / Things to Check

There are also potential drawbacks or things to clarify:

• Prerequisites: It seems aimed at people who already have a fairly solid foundation with AI filmmaking or are confident with some of the basics. If you’re brand‑new, some parts might be challenging.

• Cost: US$ 749 is a significant investment; depending on your budget, ROI matters.

• Time & Commitment: Even though the modules are ~4 weeks, you’ll need to invest time for assignments, critiques, etc. Also, sometimes lessons are released weekly — so you have to keep up.

• Tool / Hardware Requirements: Some AI tools (for rendering, VFX, etc.) can be resource‑intensive. Be sure to check whether your computer / internet / software can handle what the course expects.

• Output quality expectations: Even though the course aims for “Hollywood‑level” AI films, actual results will depend heavily on your experience, resources, and how much effort you put in. AI has limitations (artifacts, prompt unpredictability, etc.).

Is It Worth It For You?

Here are some questions that can help you decide if this course is a good fit:

Tips If You Decide to Join

If you go for it, here are suggestions to maximize value:

1. Prepare ahead:

   • Brush up on basic AI filmmaking tools (prompt engineering, basic compositing, etc.).

   • Make sure your hardware/software is ready (good GPU, stable internet, required editing/compositing tools).

2. Define your project early: Decide what film or short project you want to create. Having a clear project goal will help you apply lessons directly.

3. Engage in the community: Share work, ask feedback, learn from peers. Sometimes peers catch issues or ideas you miss.

4. Use feedback wisely: When getting critiques, try to implement changes and learn from them rather than getting discouraged.

5. Iterate: AI is often about iteration. Don’t aim for perfect on first pass; refine.

6. Build for distribution: If the course gives you help with festivals/PR, follow through. Having your film seen or published can amplify your work.
