The course instructor is Kamala Appel, aka "the key" in KEA Productions. She has produced numerous documentary-style web videos for small business owners and non-profit organizations since 2002. Ms. Appel worked in Hollywood in licensing at Universal Studios and Business Affairs at International Creative Management (ICM) and in programming at the Sundance Film Festival. She is a graduate of Yale University and where earned a BA in American Studies with a concentration in Film Studies and USC's School of Cinema-Television, now Cinematic Arts, where she earned her Master's degree.  She is also a certified SEO Practitioner.

"What I love most about producing videos for small business owners and nonprofits is the opportunity to work with passionate professionals who are experts in their field. I feel very fortunate to be able to use my skills as a visual storyteller to help others. Unfortunately, I am not able to help every worthy business owner out there because not everyone can afford to hire a professional like myself to produce a video for them.  That is why I decided to develop a course that could empower more businesses, start ups, and nonprofits compete and share their passion with the world."

Ms. Appel has been a faculty member at a number of accredited offline colleges throughout the State of California.  As an experienced film and multimedia instructor, she takes into consideration the three main learning styles: aural (listening- you can listen to the modules), visual (you can watch the videos with images that will hopefully stay with you), and kinetic (movement- you can exercise your kinetic learning style by taking notes and doing the quizzes). In addition to the modules or short training videos, there are samples and screen recordings * (Including FinalCut Pro and After FX demos) for all three stages: pre-production or planning, production or shooting, and post-production or editing; so that you can follow along throughout the process.

To further your learning experience, there is an interactive coaching program that complements the e-learning course and supplementary materials. During the coaching calls we will delve more deeply into the materials with scenarios and go over the quizzes. Questions can be answered live and students can participate in interviews with other industry experts. As someone who has purchased this Web Video Production course, you get your first month's membership for free.

The "meat" of the course is only available to paid subscribers who want to invest further in their online marketing efforts.

I'm very impressed with Kamala Appel's expertise – it spans both the business world and the video/Hollywood world, which is an impressive spread. She can cross over between those worlds with ease. This course speaks very clearly to business owners, and easily integrates them into the world of making videos for themselves. I have never written a script previously, but these lessons led me to brainstorming and and eventually even writing my first script. Once the leap was made, I realized it wasn't as daunting a task as it had seemed before. The “Pre-Production” section of this course was especially helpful on getting me on my feet in that way. The idea of a storyboard for a small business related video was a foreign concept to me before going through this course. “Stand Out and Move Up with Effective Web Video” is not only good for completing in one day, but to keep as a reference as well. The actual filming instruction Appel has included here is filled with precise and detailed tips.

I plan to keep watching it repeatedly, to keep the information fresh in my mind, as I know the material such a camera angles and depth of field will be of the utmost use once I get my hands on the necessary recording equipment. Bravo to you, Kamala, for combining all of your expertise into one lecture series that is easily accessible and efficiently presented. I have every intention of applying all that you have taught me in the near future.

If you are small business owner or manager, this course is ideal for learning the ins and outs of web video marketing. I own a company with four store locations. The biggest problem was that we were not showing up in Google's organic search results. This course enlightened me to the reasons why not. The tips, suggestions, and tutorials regarding SEO are invaluable.

Everything in this presentation was well-organized and thought out. The instructor was very articulate and spoke at a nice, steady pace. This made it simple to understand and comprehend the material. Furthermore, the way the course was designed, it was easy to follow and very informative. You can tell that she has combined her academic and real world experiences. While she has the depth of knowledge gleaned from school, the material is not presented in a theoretical or pedantic way. Instead, her practical real world experience really provides instant credibility for businesses.

After viewing this course, I feel excited to producing my first web video. I now see that people do not find it tacky or silly, as long as you follow the outline provided. I feel the money I spent on this course was well worth the investment.
