As someone who knew absolutely nothing about Midjourney before this course, Nick really did a great job teaching the material, starting with the basics and building into more advanced details. I was way less intimidated than I thought I would be and feel like I now have the knowledge to add Midjourney into my creative toolbox.

Nick’s passion for Midjourney as a creative tool and his obsession to plumb its depths and share his research and discoveries with us fueled an unforgettable learning experience. Knowing that I’ll be able to continue to access and review all his exhaustive materials will allow me to experiment and develop my skills with this AI tool at my own pace.

Nick interacted with us students as equals, never showing any hint of superiority. It was a welcoming space where I felt free to ask questions, share ideas, and even occasionally drift off without feeling judged. Nick truly embodies the qualities of a genuine leader: respect, dedication, inspiration, and an unwavering passion for the subject.

10 out of 10. First rate. Nick has the skills of a professional, the curiosity of DaVinci, and the soul of an artist. He shares practical knowledge in a focused/organized way. His recorded videos are bite-sized. His live sessions are deep workflow explanations in real-time. Total value for money. And the man is a true mentor.

Matthew L. Burton

VP, Financial Consultant, Charles Schwab

This was an incredibly actionable course, very practical. Nick put in a lot of effort to make his lessons digestible but never basic - we went from basics to masterclass in a matter of days but I never felt lost.
