It was a great Course but it has a lot of challenges that you’ll have to give your maximum but you will enjoy it and learn a lot about Lighting and editing.

But if you’re choosing this course to build a career, it may not work in London Ontario as i know over 30 Students graduated with Great GPA and won Awards still can’t find jobs.

If you really love Photography and want to get a great career as myself i’ve been working into Cinematography,Photography and currently has 8 years of experienced into Media field still no luck in London. The course is great but not in the right place. Search For colleges or Universities in GTA or Montreal areas am sure it will work after you graduate you can have many opportunities there.
