Your location is far away from my locality. Do have any plans to conduct classes in our area?
We normally conduct short workshops in central area of the city. But this course is designed for extensive learning and supporting tools are not limited to audio visual equipment. During this course we provide you various camera accessories like tripod, lenses, flash units, continuous lighting units, studio setup etc. It is inconvenient to carry them across different locations. Our well-equipped setup will benefit your learning.
Another aspect is, considering the structure of Pune city it is difficult to locate single location suitable for all. And conducting classes in core prime city area will unnecessarily increase expenses and in turn it will increase course fees significantly.
Driving for 4 weekends is worth for your hobby. We have participants joined from out of Pune locations like Kolhapur, Satara, Indapur, Beed, Loanavala, Daund, Ahemednagar, Aurangabad etc.
