I wasn't in his department, but got placed in a few of his classes. He's always been willing to listen and help me whenever issues arise. He's a very good teacher, and very professional. He gave me the opportunity to work with many departments, and it was a learning experience.

gives precise information. Gives clarity however sometimes gets sidetrack and talks about non related subjects. Also portfolio work is not credible. Great inspiration but deadlines of assignments are hard to fulfill in matters of short timing.

This man is a genius at what he does! If you want to become a TV/Film Producer, then you should REALLY listen, take lots of notes, go out there and emulate what you've learned to PROGRESS! Craig, you will see this one day, just know you are an incredible inspiration and your efforts will pay off through your students that you've had that impact on!

Dovidio is a good teacher and he knows his stuff. His video assignments are not complicated, just make sure everything is lit well and positioned correctly and he will be happy as long as you try. Try to show him work as often as you can. The only thing about him is he repeats himself ALOT but try to have patience! He has connections!

Craig is a teacher that does what he teaches. He is a video person outside of class time. He is able to give real life examples of what it is to make money doing video/tv. If you do not want to really work in this industry, dont take a class with him. He thinks you want a job doing what you are going to school for. Great teacher. Listen take notes

TV studio, this guy knows it all but tried to rely on teaching us practical skills using quciktime videos of older lectures. Not a good idea as they were unwatchable and we had to get him to actively assist filming homework projects. This guy is very late at collecting and marking homework and so you dont get a sense of progression.

This guy has placed me on the path to success in the TV/Video industry! The most helpfull person in the school. I cannot believe anyone who takes honest critique from a good teacher a problem. If you are one of them, drop out of school, and allow the rest of us to learn from him!

Craig is a great teacher. He does draw his explanations out alot but he does it so we can learn. Those that say they didnt like him is because they probably started trouble. HE teaches for a total of 4 classes, then gives us the remainder of the 11 weeks to work on our assignment and ask questions and he helps. HE knows his shyt

Helpful teacher, but when you ask him a question he always gives you a half hour explanation and sometimes you never get the answer. He's a talker! If I had a dollar for every minute he talked I could retire already.

If you're looking to make money shooting weddings...then he knows what he's talking about. Anything else...I'd go to someone else for advice.

I had to take this class though it isn't part of my major so I knew nothing going in but I felt like I left with a lot. I can see why some people don't like him, he is the kind of guy you like or you don't. But he knows a lot and is willing to help.
