Filmmaking 101 with Niles

Filmmaking 101 with Niles — The Foundations Every Travel Video Creator Needs

The gist: A 200+-minute crash course covering the full travel video pipeline — from camera settings and lighting to audio and Premiere Pro editing — for under the price of a single ND filter.

• Full production pipeline: Eight modules span exposure (aperture, shutter speed, ISO, frame rates), focal lengths, composition, lighting, mic selection, and hands-on Premiere Pro editing.
• Audio covered: Microphone selection for different shooting situations is included — one of the most commonly skipped skills in DIY travel video.
• Honest about the learning curve: Instructor Niles Grey states upfront this builds foundational knowledge rather than instant mastery — a useful expectation-setter before your first video trip.
• Moment-tested curriculum: Niles has helped produce some of Moment's most successful YouTube content and online courses, so the production approach is field-proven.

On Moment's platform the course holds a 4.6/5-star rating from 11 verified purchasers, with reviewers noting its practical, no-fluff structure.

Best for: Travel bloggers and content creators building their first video workflow, especially those who own mirrorless or DSLR gear but haven't learned the fundamentals. Skip it if: You're already an experienced filmmaker — the beginner-to-intermediate scope won't break new ground. Runs ~$25 — check the current price before buying.
