¡Un curso diferente y muy inspirador! Me encantó el enfoque, la manera de presentar el proceso creativo y, sobre todo, la invitación a mirar la creatividad desde una perspectiva distinta. El contenido me ayudó a salir de mi forma habitual de pensar, experimentar con nuevas ideas y entender que el proceso también es una parte importante de la creación, no solamente el resultado final.

J'ai suivi ce cours avec passion, j'avais du mal à faire des pauses tellement c'est captivant, et j'avais à chaque fois hâte de reprendre. C'est très bien structuré, méthodique, honnête, et très agréable. Cela m'a donné envie d'enchainer sur un autre cours de Guillaume. Merci à lui pour ce super cours !
