I have nothing but good things to say about ELVTR's Become a Game Writer course with the incredible Kelsey Howard. The lessons were practical and assignments challenging but engaging. Kelsey provided excellent insights that helped me make sense of the complex game creation process and the game writer's role in all of it. Having the course online made it convenient and the twice-weekly sessions meant I had plenty of time to absorb, process and apply the lessons to assignments and even my own writing outside the course. Note that this is a course about how the writing discipline fits into the game-making process. You won't be taught how to write here. But your writing will get sharper after!

Everyone responded promptly to any questions. Coursework was engaging and challenging. Timings were also flexible to account for my travel in the evenings.

This course truly is good for people just breaking into editing or as a refresher for veterans of the craft. I was already working in the industry, but the course provided valuable insights into the publishing process. It is, by no means, an easy course--you're going to put in the work--but it was definitely worth the investment into the next step in my career.

Honestly an invaluable experience with lots of knowledge and insight given during my time on the course, a big thank you to Caitlin and Gavin!

The Instructors were insightful and were willing to arm me with the tools and the knowledge of how to do what they do!

Now to start poking at the Game Industry with a sharp stick instead of the dull, rusty spoon of Facebook spamming!

Well organized and professionally structured keeping students engaged and focused with a solid process to achieve and perfectly culminating into the capstone project with real-world timelines at an affordable price and with the added convenience of online with supporting material and recordings.

"The instructor, David, was fantastic, he was very animated and his personality truly shined through in each session.

My only constructive feedback for ELVTR is regarding networking. I wish there was a way to stay connected with the class and alumni built directly into the platform. It's nice that they offer a separate Discord server, but having an integrated feature to help us stay connected would make the experience even better. Highly recommended overall"

I recently completed the Comic Book Scriptwriting course at ELVTR with Adam Beechen. The course was highly informative, and the ELVTR team was exceptionally supportive throughout. I look forward to taking more of their courses in the future and would highly recommend them to others.

Thank you.

I am convinced that courses like these provide a significant boost to our careers and give us a real competitive advantage in today’s market. The knowledge I have gained through this platform has been incredibly valuable in helping me stay up to date with current technology and terminology.

Additionally, the opportunity to share experiences and learn from others has strengthened my skills and broadened my perspective. Overall, this has been a very enriching experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to grow professionally.

Excellent instructors and a postive community of students were the key to a satisfying experience. t was great fun to re-engage my creative thought process and learn new ways to think about Big Ideas.

This was an incredible class, getting to learn the ropes of the industry from a real insider. The ELVTR staff were top notch and the instructor was excellent, as well as the incredible guest speakers brought in. ELVTR does a good job putting together a wonderful learning experience.

Great subject and current for the architectural practice

I first learned of ELVTR from a pop-up on my social media page. From there I clicked on learn more and was paired with Uliana, who was very patient with me as I navigated which course would be best for my learning. There was an initial phone call where she answered all of my questions and guided my requests professionally and timely. I took the Book Production Management course with Vanessa Robles, another professional who was incredibly knowledgeable. This course was presented in a way that made the content fun, engaging and easily understandable (for someone with zero publishing background, this was key). ELVTR also provides a program manager who is there to support you through the course, our cohort was paired with Sabina Rodriguez, who is fantastic! From day one she made herself available through phone calls, texts and emails. She introduced herself and provided all the platforms for us to get in touch. Luckily, I only had one small tech issue, which Sabina solved in a very timely manner as to not affect my schooling. I cannot say enough positive things about this organization and the professionals they work with. I am so impressed by my previous experience, I've already signed up for another course!

My experience on the ELVTR 'Comic Book Artist' course with Emma Vieceli was brilliant! I first spotted the course on Instagram and am so glad I applied.
From day one the support has been professional, helpful, kind and technically great!
The course focussed on visual storytelling which is a passion of mine. Beginning with character expression sheets right through to finalised inks on a professional comic book script.
What our amazing teacher Emma Vieceli gave us was the foundation and building blocks to create a finished comic book page with confidence.
With Emma's talent, industry insight and experience we were in the right place and in the right hands to be guided across character design, thumb nailing, pencilling and inking.
If you want to learn about storytelling in comics and be ready as a comic book artist, then this course is for you.

I took Costume Design for Entertainment with Emmy winning designer Jenn Rogien! I am a costume designer for live performance, currently trying to make the jump to film and tv. While I am familiar with the design process, this class gave me every tool I need to apply my skills to film as a medium. Even though I had previous experience, I still found this course challenging, engaging, and I learned so much! Jenn is an amazing teacher, she thoughtfully answers every question, and gives you a very honest perspective of how the industry operates. I got 10 times the value of what I invested in this course.

Overall, ELVTR offers valuable classes, tangible credentials (certificate, portfolio, etc.) and opportunities for professional development/upskilling.

I appreciated Alex for being my first point of contact and patiently walking me through my class selection (not to mention the pricing+promo package that they offered at the time)!

I appreciated Izzy for being flexible, empathetic, and responsive when I was enrolled.

I appreciated Lola for being attentive and informative whenever possible, even before and after the class term.

I would probably take another class if time+opportunity permits. The class days+times were ideal for me. 2 weekdays, after 5pm (Pacific time), for 6 weeks with a week break!

The person I spoke to was very helpful and went above and beyond throughout the whole process.

I took the 8 week Editor in Book Publishing course with Tom Hoeler and it was fantastic! Tom was such a great instructor, very open, encouraging and down to earth. The whole team was terrific. I learned a lot about the publishing industry which I have been interested in starting a new career in. Highly recommend taking this course!

ELVTR is the type of company that gives the people what they want; industry-relevant courses to those interested in advancing in their careers. I took the Book Production Management course and absolutely loved every second of it. Not only did we follow a course that taught us what goes into production on a more detailed manner, but we learned important topics and systems from an industry expert that is valued and respected in the industry. Vanessa Robles was incredible to learn from, and her assignments and teaching made learning that much more enjoyable. While I highly recommend this specific course, I know that there are many more taught by the best of the best, ranging from all kinds of industries. If this is something you're considering, I would highly recommend it.

Regarding the production manager course, everything went great. Overall, I would totally recommend this course. If Production Management is what you are looking for, this is great for any level, especially junior or intermediate. Bryan, the producer conducting the course, is amazing at what he does. He was very clear with the details of this position, and the roadmap to follow made sense in relation to the objective of the course. The content was great, the classes were clear and detailed, and the after-hours sessions were full of students asking many questions.

One opportunity I would have enjoyed is having more open-table conversations with Bryan. Either we were listening to Bryan, or we were asking questions, but the space to converse was a bit limited.
