Take the Direct Route

I started my video production company in 2004, but didn't get my first Emmy nomination until 2013! 

Learning on my own took YEARS and many mistakes.

Today my production company works with fortune 100 companies all around the country. 

I created cNOMADIC to shorten the learning curve and help people raise their skills from amateur to pro .

Kim

"I really think that the best thing for anybody who's thinking about going into video production is to get the training. But find the training from real people who are doing it in the industry.  Taking classes with Chris is great because it's not just theory, it's application and it's tested and it's been out in the field. That's where the real meat comes from. It's that ability to listen to a professional in the field that is doing these things, that is putting out these amazing productions. Give me somebody who has really been out in the field and actually done it any day of the week, and that's what I prefer. "

Bryan

"I didn't have high confidence. I was always worried about failing. It was fun being able to, after attending in class, go out and do something with that information. And it makes a huge difference in the quality of your picture. It takes it from being just a picture to a picture that has some value and has something to say"

Tedd

"I wanted to learn from people like Chris so that I could get high quality video that my clients really expect."

Maria

"This course taught me more about film and photography than I learned in two years of film school. Chris goes into detail to not only learn how to create masterful shots, but also why certain settings are important so all the functions of a camera are working together in harmony. The classes are self-paced, fun and engaging.  I highly recommend this course!"

Burk

"This was a great way to cut the learning curve. The class not only taught me technical things, but also the reasons behind using certain settings, to get the footage that you want. I learned to go from shooting in automatic to shooting in manual, and that was huge for me. And my images got so much better."

Gene

"I was an absolute beginner so I didn't know how it was going to be, but the experience was great. Chris' presentation is really awesome. He speaks in very easy to understand terms. You can walk away with a lot of knowledge and tools that you can actually use."
