Udemy
Udemy was undeniable one of the first one’s to start giving away courses for free or at great discounts. In the month of March, Udemy made a huge variety of courses available to the public for no cost at all just to encourage people to stay home. Udemy is back again with a bunch of more free courses and some with heavily discounted prices related to film-making. For a matter of fact this one course which was worth INR 12,000 is now available for INR 420 which quite honestly is super crazy! So what are you waiting for, they have a plethora of courses, go sign up for those courses as soon as possible. Head over to www.udemy.com and get a course now.
My personal favourite is the one by Jordy.
