I don't recommend it. It was one of the worst courses for photography. Not much knowledge in there, a lot of talk which is not really useful. Title of the course does not reflect the content.
Sin duda un curso sumamente valioso, con mucha información importante y completamente aplicable en el trabajo.
Gran curso, con mucho arte, talento e información útil para incursionar en la fotografía de moda y fine art.
Ótimo curso!
