I took the Advanced Certificate in Drone Journalism and Media at Stanmore School of Business to upskill and transition into a new career. The course was pretty cool, and I liked how it covered both the technical and creative aspects of drone journalism. I gained some useful skills, like learning how to edit drone footage using Adobe Premiere Pro and how to create engaging storytelling sequences. The instructors were knowledgeable and provided some great feedback on my assignments. One thing that could be improved is the discussion forum - sometimes it was hard to get responses from the instructors or other students. Still, I'm happy with what I learned, and I'm looking forward to applying my new skills in the field.
