Film school diplomas arrived

I’ve just received my diplomas from the webfilmschool training. I am now officially certified as being trained as a Feature Film Producer, a Director, and a Line Producer! Dov Simens says he checked to see what printer makes the UCLA film school diplomas, and used better ink there than they use. Indeed, they are lovely.

Perhaps. I'm sure there are interactive experiences and theoretical knowledge that the film school provides that the intensive doesn't. But Dov taught us where and for how much to buy film and many other practical, street-knowledge matters, which he says that the schools don't teach.

In the cover letter for the diplomas he said "It is my firm belief that you now have as [much], or even more, knowledge of independent filmmaking than do those 4-year $120,000 film school grads."

He's a good enough teacher with such a well-honed syllabus and classroom skillset that he may be right.
