Hi, I’m Alex Rodriguez!
I'm a part-time videographer who found success filming sorority recruitment videos while studying Mechanical Engineering in college at Washington State University. While most of my friends picked up shifts at part time jobs, I picked up my camera and started filming sorority recruitment videos! After my first year, I was making the equivalent of my friends 3-month paycheck in a single downpayment. I wanted to share this information with as many people as possible, so I created this course to do just that! This course includes all of the knowledge, skills, tools, and strategies that I've learned over the past four years.
