“Being a part of the Arri Alexa workshop at afilm was a great and an eye-opening experience for me. The theoretical and hands on practical sessions of the workshop was a true visionary way of letting students know more about the camera. Juan as a professor can be strict with students not moving an inch and a very good friend as well depending on the times just like Arri Alexa, if you know the camera then its your friend and if you don’t then god help you, it might just stand there in front of you, like a beast staring right at you, but beautiful.”Bikash Rai NEPAL
