The Coronator course has been one of the best experiences that I had! It's a great course with a high level of content, techniques and art concepts. The lessons have a great rhythm. I recommend the course at 100%. For me it's one of the best courses available online. I would take the course another time for sure!

Deciding to come to Vietnam for the course was the best experience I have ever had. You had to put 100% of energy and passion in every work and during 10 days of the course, Mr. Dzung helped me to improve my skill with the latest update of knowledge. I have learned a lot, I hope that I will have a chance to come back 4pixos in the near future.

I got lucky to meet Mr. Dzung, a very very dedicated man towards the training & in his professional life. You can learn a lot by his commitments.
World-class environment to improve your corona skills with all the latest technology & very very important knowledge. During the training program, I was allowed to focus on my project, and no side burdens no other commitments & that is what makes a significant big difference. A commitment needed if you want to learn something valuable & the best thing is knowing that when you get stuck somewhere in your practice, you immediately going to get the solution from the instructor.

This was a great course from start to finish. Building your own scene from the start really give you a sense of accomplishment through out the course.
The Live sessions to analysis your work in progress is really informative and give some direction on what to work on and improve.
Thank you 4Pixos for your time. I really enjoyed doing this course and learnt a lot. I also now have a great set of images I created that I can feel proud of.

The photographic approach in the course was simply amazing and helped me to learn a lot of new things. During my course, Mr. Dexter patiently cleared my doubts and shared some important tips to produce good quality renders. With his experience, you will learn different approaches to work on the project.
Special thanks to the people in 4pixos they were simply very sweet and supportive. Overall it's a very positive atmosphere to learn.

The course helped me to have strong confidence in how to approach any project. Though the course was very tough at first, I was curious about the entire process and wanted to give my best.
All my questions were answered patiently and the class interaction is very good. Mr. Dexter is very knowledgeable, friendly and provided a wealth of information that has helped me grow professionally. His way of approaching any project is amazing!
In the end, seeing our output result as a print medium is something great and joyful. Priceless moment!
