- DigitalVision:
I regularly run freelance training courses both in London and LA (our last one was in LA 2 weeks ago) I also ran a course for some users in Australia in November last year.
I create these courses around our current demo material, and provide the material, full instruction manuals, and DVD's.
If you are interested I could send you a manual, I could also send you names of recent attendees as references.
Contact me at my DV address if you want more info.

- FilmLight:
FilmLight offers a general 'Introductory Freelance Colourist course' at our offices in London. Details of this course - dates and background information can be found on our website - http://www.filmlight.ltd.uk/training.htm. This course will soon be available in other regions. For customers in the Asia Pacific region we currently run Baselight courses at our Sydney office and can also arrange on-site training. These courses follow a standard syllabus but are normally customised for individual requirements and tend to cover a complete workflow as well as the operational features of the equipment. In addition to training for colourists we can also provide technical training for those responsible for installing and maintaining FilmLight systems. All courses include manuals, course materials and access to PDFs and other resources on our website. If you would like to know more, or are interested in booking some time on the Baselight system at our Sydney office, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Regards,
Bob.
