Thanks for your review, Werner. I'm glad you like the course :-)

Thanks for your review, Mathias :)

Thank you for your detailed review and honest feedback. What and how much one considers superfluous information in a course is certainly a matter of taste. One person finds one piece of information superfluous, while someone else needs exactly that information. However, I will of course take careful note of your opinion in this regard, as an overall picture can only emerge from a broad range of opinions. The other customer opinions so far tend to go in the other direction. I try to avoid the unnecessary filler words mentioned by you as much as possible, but I'm only human ;-)

A "short, concise presentation of the essentials" is simply not possible in a course that goes into the professional level of image editing, in my personal opinion - and especially not purposeful. Affinity Photo has numerous functions, ways and possibilities. What is essential depends fundamentally on what you want to edit and how. The strength of Affinity Photo is exactly this complexity and variety of possibilities. And this is exactly what I want to present in the course. For the same reason, when creating the course, I deliberately decided not to cut out passages from the video lessons, where perhaps a "mistake" is made or later another editing path is taken. The course would then be shorter and easier to digest, but it would have nothing to do with real practice. With the course, on the other hand, I would like to present the actual work of the practice by allowing people to look over my shoulder "live", so to speak. And yes, this work can be very complex and also involves a flexible adaptation of the processing paths to the circumstances and creative decisions that arise again and again. This simply corresponds to real-life practice in such complex image processing as is shown in the course. And that's what I want to show authentically and honestly.

The term "Masterclass" expresses first of all only that it goes here into the professional ("Master") level. Whether you also want to have the basics is certainly a matter of taste and depends on your own level of knowledge. I have deliberately decided to do so, as this course should be suitable for everyone. Even though one can have different opinions about this decision, I honestly cannot understand the criticism of it in the form of a negative rating for the course. What content is included in the Masterclass is communicated completely transparently on the Masterclass sales page. So if you decide to purchase the entire Masterclass, you know what you're getting. In addition, with the purchase you get a money-back guarantee for several weeks. So even if one does not inform oneself before the purchase about contents, then still the possibility of the purchase exists to withdraw. So you don't get anything foisted on you here. To express this point in the form of a negative rating for the course, I find honestly not fair, because you get what is also transparently advertised.

Thanks for your review, Andrea :)
