Apprenticeship

Rigging Dojo Apprenticeship personalized, private, 1-on-1 training sessions and Advanced special training projects.

Team up with an industry professional mentor that will work directly with you throughout each week. What you learn is based directly on your goals from your application. Our mentors use on critiques, assignments emulating production tasks to tailor the curriculum to push your skills to the next level. In return we expect you to be open and willing to being guided by your mentor.

The relationship provided in the session is akin to the relationship of a rigger/TD and their Lead in production. This is by design, as it is a very strong way to teach proven solutions to creative and technical problems as well as allow innovation to take form.

Rigging Dojo was founded on ideals akin to this quote by Bruce Lee …

“Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.”

Our Apprenticeship training methods have allowed many of our Alumni to switch careers, get their dream job and improve in ways they didn’t even know they needed. It isn’t easy and isn’t for everyone. However it is what often opens two doors; one to the biggest growth and improvement in your work. The other door allows the building of working relationships that go well beyond the length of a course.

Prerequisites: 1 year or industry experience or successful completion of our courses required.
