Your Instructor
Hi I'm Greg. I'm a South African Canadian Travel Videographer aka Global Citizen. I first got into video filming with a sharp camcorder in high school making my own short films and tennis video and editing on a VHS. In 2011 in Simon Fraser University (Vancouver Canada) I rediscovered my love for video while filming an earthquake hiphop safety video for a Media Course.
After I graduated from Simon Fraser University (BA Communications) in Vancouver Canada I went on to pursue a successful IT career working 13 years as an IT manager. I went onto to complete my MBA in Technology Management SFU and found my Entrepreneurial inspiration to start my own travel video business in 2011 during the DSLR video revolution. I sold my downtown Vancouver Apartment, bought an iMac, a Canon 7D, and Gopro Hero 2. I was getting hooked into video. It was this during this time I traveled to Asia filming my early Travel Guide Chicvoyage in Asia and building up a stock footage collection.
In 2013 I sold my apartment, car, and possessions and relocated my life to Taipei Taiwan on a working holiday visa to learn Mandarin Chinese. I used my time here to figure out how to build a Video business. I taught from English, flew my drone, filmed and posted many videos to Youtube and discovered ways to earn online income through stock footage and online teaching.
I was introduced to the Digital Nomad lifestyle while in Taiwan and eventually moved on to Chiang Mai Thailand. In Chiang Mai I had a chance to meet other Internet Entrepreneurs discovered Thailand and travel deeper into Asia and continue building courses and my video skills. I have the freedom to work from anywhere, but base myself mainly between Thailand, Malaysia, and Vancouver. I provide video production and editing services, license stock footage, and online courses.
I hope my story and course can Inspire and arm with the knowledge for you to follow your own Creative Entrepreneurial Journey and find your Freedom!
