The process

The actual workflow, not a lecture about the workflow.

A lot has been added since you last took one of Brandon's courses. Every technique in this library came from making the films below. Nothing was invented for a classroom. You can take any of it and apply your own eye to it. That's the whole point.

From inside the Studio

Unscripted Studio member Theja Mitta was a software engineer who picked up a camera for the first time. He had no background in filmmaking or storytelling. Within months of going through the program, he produced two films that have been watched over 23,000 times — with fewer than 100 subscribers. Here's what's possible when you have the full framework.

The work

These films are where the courses came from.

Everything in this library is what Brandon figured out in the process of making these — the techniques, the way he moves through a scene, how he thinks about a story before he picks up a camera. If you took one of the original courses, you've already seen part of this. The rest of the library fills in everything else.

Planning and Pre-Production

No Gear Required

Getting inspired, location research, budgeting, scheduling, legal clearances. Avoid the beginner mistakes that ruin otherwise great projects.

From inside the Studio
"Now that I see there is method and not simply the luck of an innate creative gene, I'm inspired."
Kenneth G. — Studio Member
"The improvised storytelling lessons are just what I was looking for. They are really going to take my filmmaking to a whole another level."
Jakub Z. — Studio Member
"Your basics are great. I love the fact that you're a direct to the point type of guy — articulate and taking the time to share your mindset and reasoning as you go. That's so valuable."
Dave W. — Studio Member
Questions

A few things worth knowing

I already own one or more courses. What does this actually add?
Everything you don't already have. Your existing courses stay yours and will be migrated to the new platform regardless. This purchase adds lifetime access to every remaining course in the library. That includes courses that have never been sold individually: A Day in Chiang Mai, The Editing Bootcamp, The Handheld Bootcamp, and Planning and Pre-Production. If you own one course, this adds ten more. If you own three, it fills in everything else.
What's happening with the old platform? When do I get access to the new one?
We're migrating every previous customer to the new platform over the next couple of months. You'll receive a separate email with login instructions when your account is ready. Your existing courses will be there. If you use your code now, the full catalog will be waiting for you when you log in — plus you get instant access to everything on the new platform today.
Will I still get migrated if I don't buy?
Yes. Whether you use your code or not, your existing courses will be migrated to the new platform. You'll get a separate email when your account is ready. This offer is just a one-time window to complete the full library at $97 before the migration window closes and the price goes back to $1,297.
How do I access my previous courses on the old platform?
You can still access everything you've previously purchased at unscripted.studio. Your courses will remain available there until your account is migrated to the new platform. You'll receive a separate email when the migration is complete.
What if I already bought a course that's included in this?
You won't lose anything. Your code gives you lifetime access to the complete library. Any course you already own is still yours. Think of this as completing the collection, not replacing what you have.
What's in the courses I haven't seen yet?
The full breakdown is above. The short version: the library covers every major aspect of Brandon's filmmaking process — camera movement, storytelling without a script, editing in Final Cut and DaVinci, directing in the field, iPhone-only production, gimbal work from beginner to advanced, multi-camera fusion, and full pre-production planning. Several courses include downloadable footage so you can follow along in the edit with the same clips Brandon used.
Is this really lifetime access — or does it expire?
Lifetime means lifetime. One payment, no renewal, no subscription, no auto-billing. Your access doesn't expire.
How do I use my discount code?
Enter it in the coupon field at checkout below. If you arrived from the email link, it may already be filled in. The code is single-use, tied to your account, and has a limited expiration window — check your email for the exact date.
I use Adobe Premiere — will I be able to follow along?
The editing portions of courses use either Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve, depending on the course. But most of what's taught in Unscripted Studio happens before you sit down to edit — how you see, how you shoot, how you think through a scene. The editing lessons show you how Brandon approaches his footage: the decision-making behind the cuts, not software shortcuts. That transfers to any program, including Premiere.
The offer

You bought in early — before the platform was rebuilt, before there were 11 courses, before any of this looked the way it does now. This is a one-time offer to complete your library at a price that won't come back once the migration window closes.
