Meet Your Instructor

I’m Renars, a craftsman and filmmaker who’s spent years at the bench and behind the camera, learning how great craftsmanship and clear storytelling go hand in hand. I’ve built custom pieces, documented the process, and refined practical methods that make both the craft and the filming feel approachable and repeatable.

In Bents Handmade Academy — Leathercraft and Filming Masterclass, I teach the exact systems I use: from cutting, stitching, and finishing to lighting, framing, editing, and presenting your work with confidence. I’m passionate about helping you master the skills, avoid the common pitfalls, and leave with projects—and a creative workflow—you’re proud to share.
