DSLR And MIrrorless camera course
Online videography Courses UK
Is this for me?
DSLR and mirrorless video courses and post-production workshops from a professional cinematographer and art educator
Do you run a business and want to invest in your video skills to save costs? Tired of outsourcing video production? Are you under pressure to bring better content to your social media? Getting ready to shoot an indie documentary?
I will take your shooting skills to the next level and can provide ongoing mentorship.
Are you a complete beginner who simply loves films? Are you in real estate, journalism, travel vlogging, indie filmmaking? Perhaps you work in education or for an NGO? I know that you are definitely under increasing pressure to produce professional-grade video.
I will help you master your DSLR or mirrorless camera system.
All workshops will be tailored to your needs
Featured video courses
Ideal for both those who are making the transition from still photography and people with no videography experience whatsoever.
Have you always wondered about the video capabilities of your camera but been too intimidated by them? Whether video is just a passion or your future profession, this multi-level workshop is the right place to start.
Businesses of all sizes increasingly need video. You might need it for creating original content or to advertise on social media. Outsourcing video production is great but might be too expensive or even slow you down.
Whether you want to stay ahead of the competition or invest in a new skill that allows you to cut your costs in the medium term, this is the course for you.
Ongoing, regular sessions that enable me and you to work together towards your goal. We focus on your specific area of interest: from lighting your yoga studio for online classes to shooting interviews, corporate events or weddings.
Bespoke assignments and constant discussions allow me to become deeply involved in your growth. This is the kind of learning that allows in-depth understanding and mastery of your skills.
Ongoing mentoring
Online & one-to-one
I have always found 1-to-1 courses inspiring. It’s rare to have the opportunity to truly focus on another photographer’s development.
My online sessions were prompted by the Covid crisis and the resulting lockdowns. But I discovered that these 1-to-1 sessions have a number of ‘peacetime’ advantages.
Instead of wasting time and money commuting we can spend our energies on studying. Scheduling classes is extremely flexible. And meeting in smaller chunks is better for learning than a full-day intensive session.
I’m nothing like a Youtube channel. Meeting online is a personal and interactive experience which allows you improve your skills when we can’t meet in person.
How do I teach?
Methodology
Need help buying gear?
Equipment advice
It might sound strange, but not owning your own gear (yet) is a great place to be! I don’t believe in telling people what they should buy. I want you to be able to make an informed decision and understand the choices that you make.
Even if you have your own kit, I’m very happy to offer my expertise and experience in finding a camera body (DSLR or mirrorless), lenses, tripods, gimbals, lights that will suit your needs…
…and fit into your budget.
Don’t have your own?
Free camera hire
Don’t worry if you don’t have your own camera. Should you need equipment I am more than happy to bring my own professional gear to all of our sessions and let you try out everything that I work with: camera body, lenses, filters.
I am brand-agnostic, but if you must know, I’m currently shooting mostly on Fujifilm or if it’s a larger project, on an Arri Alexa Mini.
(I can’t bring the Mini to our workshops but I can take you to the Mini if you’d like it for a workshop!)
Hi there
About the tutor
Experience
György (a.k.a Gyuri and pronounced [dew-rie]) trained as a cinematographer and has been in the industry for over 15 years. He shoots independent features, shorts, documentaries.
As a photographer he practices street photography and portraiture and if you want to sidetrack him, just raise the issue of the correlation between lens choice, subject distance and ethics.
ExposureWorks started out as a lovechild and a teaching aid in 2012. Over the years it has grown into a platform that allows him to meet and teach students from all walks of life. Teaching both at private companies and being a guest lecturer at Royal Holloway, he has taught over 800 day courses and close to 5000 people to date.

My one to one lesson was tailored to my needs and his teaching style is the right mix of thorough without being too overwhelming. We covered so much in just a few hours but I came away with so much knowledge and feeling so much more confident in my own abilities. I feel that Gyorgy has given me the tools to really get the most out of my camera. My work since one session with him has improved so much and I will certainly be training with him again. You can really tell he is an experienced educator - as he also lectures at a university and it really shows. Now I've found my own private university I can check into whenever I need help!

I was a bit apprehensive at the start because I am a complete beginner with photography/video but György structured the days so that I learned gradually and explained everything comprehensively. When I didn't understand something, he patiently explained again and in different ways until I did.
His passion for cinematography and photography is infectious and I came away excited to put what I learned into practice and to delve deeper into the topics. On a more personal note, it was great to see the world through György's eyes. The way he explains and talks about things like light, photography, travel etc. and his sense of humour make his workshops unique.
