The instructor is Thomas Bugaj (US), a media artist, educator, and drone enthusiast. Bugaj works primarily with time-based media. He has taught filmmaking and digital design courses for a number of institutions in Pennsylvania, including at Pittsburgh Filmmakers and the University of the Arts in Philadelphia.
