Testimonials
"A
well rounded workshop that combines informative
theory, group discussion and hands-on application.
Peter offers something for everyone, from the PA to the experienced
director. Nobody gets left behind - everybody gets stimulated." John
MacCarthy - Vancouver, Canada
"Fantastic course, fantastic
instructor. In a brief 4 day
course, Peter D.
Marshall has provided various tools for the would be directors in his
class. Through discussions, film clips, handouts and
hands-on exercises, he has shown us the process involved in directing.
He touched on the politics, the story, and performance. An incredible
valuable course, at an incredible affordable price. Thank you for the
mantra "Motives Determine Behaviour" and helping us create TRUTH. This
process of discovery was fantastic."
Warren Dean Fulton - Vancouver, Canada
"Wow. Peter packed in years
of research, experience and his passion for directing in four days.
In doing so, he managed to
present the essentials of what this course is about...directing. It was
exactly what I was looking for...information and practical exercises
that will help me to achieve my goals."

"Great
course! Learned more about directing in Peter's course than working on
a set for months as an assistant director.
I recommend it to anyone
who wants to really understand the role of the director on set and for
anyone who wants to expand his skills on set."
