First AKELstudio LIVE! masterclass: water, apple, flash duration test and one shot of scotch whiskey:-)

Thank for all who participated our first masterclass, I think it was good, especially considering that this is my first time when I was working and talking on public:-)

I can’t say that it was an easy task for me: being born introvert and quite shy guy, I do not feel comfortable talking to more then 5 people at once. Doing a live broadcast, when I do not see immediate reaction on a people faces makes thing even more complicated for me. I was really afraid that I can’t open my mouth when time will come, but one shot of good scotch whiskey 10 minutes prior the broadcast fixed most of my emotional problems:-) And, once I started to talk, it was easier and easier to move forward.

We got about 20 attendants average, and, what most important, the number was increasing  during the masterclass: a good sign indicating it was not boring:-) several people joined us after 6 PM: time zone calculation is not the easiest task, I know:-)

Now, the results:
