I've really enjoyed Cinematic Orchestration. It's Informative without being stodgy. The assignments are a lot of fun whilst also developing your orchestration skills. The course has given me the confidence to continue developing my orchestral writing.
Thinkspace a great space to learn!!!
Thinkspace Education is a great resource to learn composition! Guy is a fantastic teacher & always presents the material in an energetic and fun manner!
Great content
The information is presented in a clear and engaging manner. I found this course most helpful.
These courses are fun to follow
I am currently following the beginner's "How to Write Music" course, and intend to also subscribe to the "Harmony 1" course later on. The course is very well structured, the material and information is presented clearly, and the videos are interesting and also entertaining to follow. I think, that Mr. Michelmore is the music teacher I should have had in school, but unfortunately hadn't. His excitement about music, his love to the subject matter is really an inspiration.
Highly recommended
Having taken a number of courses (Template in a Weekend, Composer Blueprints Training, DAW to Score, Sampled Orchestration in a Weekend) and am currently in the middle of Music for the Media, I can highly recommend Thinkspace courses to anyone interested in music composition for film, TV or games. Course texts and video tutorials are comprehensive and - most importantly - you get to see Guy working 'realtime' warts and all. So important (IMHO) that you don't just get to see (hear ...) the finished product. You get to see behind the scenes on how things are constructed - which you can then take and use in your own compositions. Also worth pointing out that Thinkspace have a very responsive help / support ticket process - for any questions you may have.
Learning is pure joy and writer's block is gone!
ThinkSpace Education's courses are the best online courses I have ever taken. Guy Michelmore must be among the greatest didactical talents in the world. I stumbled across one of his YouTube videos and was immediately hooked, then bought my first courses, starting with "Template in a Weekend", because that was what I needed at the time. But because the course was so excellent, I ended up taking more and more courses, even on topics I already knew quite a bit about (e.g. Harmony), just because the material is presented in such a fresh and motivating way that it is just pure joy to watch. But what is best: Watching Guy composing in real-time is so motivating and inspiring, that I always end up writing "a piece of music" afterwards, I just can't help it. These courses are the best medicine against writer's block ever.

I`m a huge fan of Thinkspace Education. However, I must admit my great disappointment with them in deciding to drop the option of offering students the choice of sending their projects to tutors for feedback. This option really set them apart from the rest and I feel they really dropped the ball with this decision. Paul Therriault
The best courses I have ever tried.

Thinkspace Education has transformed my career trajectory as a professional musician, and provided excellent online training and support. The wide variety of courses, course materials and real world projects have been instrumental in providing hard skills, which are essential in a technologically fast changing musical landscape, and one in which I was failing to keep up with beforehand. I would strongly recommend joining this community as a novice or as a professional.
