Greetings!
Welcome to the latest update on the Canon Boot Camp!
The next Association's Canon Boot Camp occurs on June 23 & 24th. Read on to find out about how we've changed the classes. For those familiar with the Canon Boot Camp, you'll remember that Pro Level I and Pro Level II were available separately. We've found, however, that both beginners and industry pros needed Pro Level I information in order to get the maximum benefit from Pro Level II.
Reversely, the hands-on filming in Pro Level II was just as essential for Pro Level I students to maximize the basic training in how to set up their cameras for a shoot.
Therefore, Pro Level I & II have been combined into a single, 2-day Boot Camp. Come shoot with the pros, and get the skills you need to book your own DSLR work, all in one weekend!
60D Added to the Boot Camp
Those with the Canon 60D will also be able to enjoy our hands-on "active learning" approach to DSLR Training. We'd love to have you join us and add video to your lineup of skills.
Digital Editing Workshop in July
 We're expanding our offerings as well. July will see the first Digital Editing Workshop, featuring Larry Jordan, an expert in both Adobe Premiere and FCPX. Stay tuned for more information on when exactly in July the class will occur. To find out more about the class itself, .

Hands-on Training from the Pros
We have trained well over 200 students including camera operators, cinematographers, still photographers, AC's, directors, documentary filmmakers, viral video producers, students and everyone in-between.
This is the only intensive one-day boot camps in Los Angeles where you learn how to effectively use the Canon 5D, 60D or 7D cameras in your film, television or web video project. Our instructors are also familiar with the 5D Mark III.
More and more music videos, feature films, commercials and television shows are adopting these cameras in their professional production. Shows and feature films already a part of the revolution are:

"24"
"True Blood"
"Memphis Beat"
Captain America
"House M.D."
"The Tonight Show"
"Saturday Night Live"
I Melt With You
Red Tails
Both days feature hands-on training complete with accessories and an actress. We will have monitors, lights, and plenty of gear, including the latest DSLR accessories. Join us!
Sincerely,
Trevor Eisenman
