I sent off both of the films that you guys helped me with that I am forever indebted for. The mom that I was so worried about said that she has not stopped crying and that everything was such a blur after it happened and that it was exactly what she needed to relive what happened, that it filled in so many gaps for her that she didn't realize had happened. So big sigh of relief there. I'm super excited. I am definitely going to go through the course again and rewatch everything. So I'm going to be also hanging in here with you guys again.

“It’s been incredible. I felt like I was doing the same thing over and over again, telling the same story. And doing this course has helped me to think outside the box—tell stories in a unique way. You really did not leave any stone unturned. There was just so much information. If we had questions, you guys were happy to answer them. I loved that. We had that group chat and we could flick you a message and everybody was able to help out and I had a real sense of community. I loved every part of the course.”

“I knew that this was the year I wanted to take my films to the next level. My husband watched something of mine just recently, and he was like, wow, this is so different compared to your films a year ago—you’ve really done it! You’ve accomplished your goal of moving to this new level. And I feel that way too. I feel like I know as I’m filming how I’m going to be putting this story together. Instead of just sort of hoping that I get enough footage to make a cohesive story later, now I see it unfolding in my mind.”

“This has been an absolutely incredible transformation for me as far as technique goes. I’ve had three births since I started this course with you guys and have been able to feel such a difference in my technique. I really feel like my ability to convey the story that I’m seeing… that the families are experiencing has transformed and become much more of an art for me instead of a desire to be able to convey a story. Now I feel like I actually can. I've been able to take something that was just a desire and turn it into an actual ability.”

Dania and Andrew are incredibly knowledgeable, creative, and giving of their time and energy. They don't hold anything back, and genuinely want you to succeed. The real diamond is in the editing - Dania is an incredibly skilful storyteller and watching her create in real time, and work with footage that was captured in challenging, unpredictable low-light settings was completely eye opening. I can't say enough good things. If you're thinking about elevating your films to story-driven art - this is the course for you.

“The Soulful Storytellers for Birth Videographers beta course has been everything I had hoped for and more! I knew I wanted to delve deeper into filmmaking with my somewhat limited videography skills. Seeing Dania’s films always gave me the chills and made me want to create films like that! The course has been so immersive and so full. I am excited to start putting my new skills to the test and to continue my learning as I go through the modules again and dive into film making with a completely new perspective. Thank you so much guys for this experience.”
