Enchanted Diamond Class. A semester's worth of REAL-world Film School. We've been to film school and personally feel that no training in the world compares to real experience working on a real film.

This is a one of a kind chance to learn how to make a feature film as it's created! You'll be able to help out on set and will be trained by myself (Brandon Laatsch) and the rest of my team. You will be trained in the art of filmmaking on the set of an actual feature film. There is literally no better way to learn filmmaking than by getting real hands-on experience. This is the best real-world training and experience you could ever want for your film career and the chance to jump-start your film career with a credit on a real feature film! Yes, $10k is expensive, but it's much better priced then the $50k per semester I spent at "filmschool" for an out of date film education. Plus all previous rewards including spending one night sleeping within the Minecraft Cabin at Node Studios! You'll also get to visit the set during production and even shoot some of the movie itself!
