Liliana Aslanidou (2016)

Having forgone a university degree in production design, I found Terry's course to be a great resource, as it covers all practical aspects of art direction, from drafting and model-making to set dressing and budgeting, in detail and depth.

Terry is a generous and supportive instructor, keen on relaying his 50 years worth of experience in the film industry to his students. He is genuinely committed to providing continuous portfolio supervision, feedback and career advice even after one's completion of the course. By creating a friendly environment in his studio, enriched by students' different backgrounds and varying levels of experience, he has helped build a tight community of art department professionals that go on to work together. Terry has given me the tools and confidence to pursue art department work - I think taking his course was the best career decision I've made thus far.
