Testimonials

Kristian is a veritable Premier Pro God. There wasn't one question that he wasn't able to answer and I feel like I can competently work on editing film and video. He provided career advice and advised on realistic goals. I will definitely keep in contact with my instructor and refer others who are eager to learn to Training Connection.

I enjoyed this class very much. I have never used After Effects before, but after the first day of this class, I felt like I could make really good basic effects. I will be able to use everything that I learned this week.

John Dix | Private

Kristian was AMAZING. I was concerned about coming into the class without prior knowledge, but he provided excellent contextual instruction and was genuinely interested in making sure everyone was on the same page.
