Hopefully it will help solidify the commitment of those signing up.

In the event that there is a lack of full-paying students after the workshop has been scheduled, there are several options.
- The student can send someone in their place.
- We can work on re-scheduling the workshop for a better time.
- The cost deficit created by the lack of 10 students can still be paid to ReelCast, and the workshop will continue.
- Last resort is to cancel the workshop.
Will the instructor bring lights and cameras to the workshop?
FAST & FULL WORKSHOPS
The instructor does not usually bring equipment such as lights and cameras for workshops. Due to the complexities of arranging for equipment to be provided for all the students, AND the higher cost of flying with checked bags, the workshop sessions not designed around “hands-on” projects. In light of this, the instructor tries to employ a very interactive teaching style and uses lots of visual illustrations during sessions.

EXCLUSIVE WORKSHOPS
Exclusive workshops are designed to provide time for more personal Q&A, and opportunities for one-on-one training. It also allows for situations where the instructor can bring equipment or use your equipment to provide advice and input regarding your team’s specific projects.
ALL WORKSHOPS
If the workshop is close enough for the instructor to drive, or if the class is willing to pay for the extra costs of checking multiple bags, considerations could be made.
What about discounts for Exclusive workshops longer than 2 days?
Yes, discounts can be arranged for an Exclusive Workshop lasting longer than the recommended 2 days. Please note that the workshop length will need to be decided before the workshop takes place, and before attendees sign up.
If you have a special circumstance, please make use of the “Comments” section in the Workshop Registration form below.
