About the Author: MasterClass
MasterClass is a US online learning platform launched in 2015 that publishes celebrity-taught video courses across creative, business, and lifestyle disciplines. Each class is taught by a recognised practitioner — film directors teach filmmaking, professional musicians teach composition and production, athletes teach training. The format is high-production-value documentary-style video rather than the traditional screencast or lecture model used by most technical platforms.
The MasterClass catalog mirrored here on CourseFlix is a small selection drawn from the platform — the broader MasterClass library covers cooking, writing, photography, science, business strategy, and more. Material from MasterClass is paid and aimed at general adult audiences rather than working software professionals; it sits on CourseFlix for breadth of catalog rather than as a primary technical learning track.
