ADVANCE PREPARATION

Like many high-end workshops there is some advance work required on your part. Technical expertise is not a requirement for The Kalish, but you should have basic working knowledge of Adobe Premiere (or Final Cut) and InDesign.

For training before attending Kalish, we recommend Lynda.com and MediaStorm Online Training. Kalish is all about the story-telling. The more you already understand about the tools, the more you can learn while at Kalish.

The Kalish a simply fantastic way to re-energize your visual spirit.
