What Daniela's Students are Saying...
“[on AM I COVERED?] I can't thank you enough for putting together such a thorough and useful class. I have been looking for a class like this for years. As a self-taught director, I understood where I was weak in my knowledge, but didn't understand how I could develop these skills. You take a lot of gray zones of prep and cinematic knowledge and tie them together in a digestible and practical way. You are a very generous teacher and spirit.”
Mary-Lyn Chambers
Director (L.A. / New Zealand)
“[on AM I COVERED?] This is my third time taking a workshop with Daniela, which I have greatly enjoyed. I find her workshops are well researched, informative and inspirational. I always come away from them with more insight both into the creative process of filmmaking, as well as into myself."
Virgina Abramovitch
Feature Filmmaker & TV Director (Toronto, Canada)
"[on AM I COVERED?] Enjoyed the class immensely. You gave me a lot to think about and the ‘axis’ discussion was very enlightening."
Nicole D.
TV Director (Toronto / L.A.)
"Daniela's Am I Covered program is essential learning for those wishing to direct or better understand the filmmaking process as a whole. Her course is designed to impart valuable tips and processes for streamlining, bolstering, and even safe guarding directing choices, to be used by directors or on set keys to aid the directorial vision. Daniela is an excellent teacher, guiding students through the material with ease and enthusiasm, always making time for those with extra questions. Perhaps most important of all, she has created a powerful community of students and alumni with great reach and wisdom."
Tori L.
Writer / Director / Producer (Toronto, Canada)
"Daniela was my gateway to beginning to understand of the mechanics of film and tv. When I took Daniela's class 11 years ago, I had never even heard script and continuity supervision. After taking it, I had a healthy respect for the work we do and I had gained the confidence to speak up about anything I thought was important. It was also through this work that I realized that I wanted to direct and that this position was one of great privilege in that I had access to ask questions of any department to further my "education". Daniela's extensive experience and wit make her class fascinating and a pleasure."
