Excelente curso, se aprende mas con una persona que ha estado trabajando en la industria y pueden mostrar su recorrido y trabajo. Me gusta que muestra trabajos reales y no simples demostraciones. El doblaje en ingles tiene problemas en las escenas que muestran de las peliculas, por favor quitarlo en estas partes y dejar el audio original
