My Promise

I help aspiring video creators create standout content by teaching how to make professional-quality videos on any budget. With better videos, you can gain influence online faster.

In 6 weeks, you will learn to make beautiful videos that look like you hired a professional videographer and editor, without have to pay for their expensive services!


How This Learning Program Works

Each week, you will watch pre-recorded videos of the week's content at your own pace.

Then, you'll receive an exercise to apply what you've learned.

We’ll then have weekly group video chats to answer your questions. This course will be limited to a maximum of 5 students, to ensure enough personal attention per student.

Karen Lum
I started my video production company 6 years ago, and I have been lean and profitable since Day 1. I simply refused to believe that video production was something that I needed to throw money at. I saw other videographers boasting massive $10-30K camera setups, but then I'd watch their videos and think... "Um. I can do that — with my $500 camera!" That's when I realized that your camera is only as good as your skills.
So over the last 6 years, I've been on a mission to demystify what makes a video "high-quality." My conclusion is this: video quality is the sum total of a lot of details, many of which can be achieved through technique, not by expensive technology. Even if you only have a phone as your camera, you can achieve an expensive "look and feel" with the right techniques.
So whether you've never made videos before, or wonder why your videos don't live up to your expectations, I am here to share with you what I've learned to help you make beautiful videos beyond your imagination, and to make the process as exciting, accessible, and stress-free as possible!
