Testimonials

"There are few people who can come into your life and make such a profound impact…Norm Ingram aka “Mr.I” is one of them.  I’ve had the pleasure to see his J106 video production program grow - since my high school days - to be one of the very best in the tri-state area and that is undoubtedly a result of the care, passion, patience and commitment Mr. Ingram has to his craft and students. I appreciate who he is and what he’s done for me and many others - being a servant leader, champion and light at Winslow Township High School."

"I have worked with Norm Ingram to connect his students with opportunities through the South Jersey Film Cooperative. Norm is always advocating for his students and looking for opportunities. He makes sure they are taught proper techniques to enter into film and TV internships and jobs. Norm Ingram has a way of bringing people together to accomplish great things!"

Mr. Ingram is an incredible teacher and coach that has served as an advisor well beyond my time at Winslow. His compassion, empathy, and patience allow him to meet you where you are without judgment and guide you where you're trying to go. He transformed my life, and I couldn't recommend him more highly.

"Working with Mr. Ingram was pivotal  to my career growth and direction. At a time when Winslow seemed to be on the verge of sunsetting TV Production, Mr. Ingram came in and injected a new energy into the program. Blending engaging coursework with technical prowess and innovative equipment, he fundamentally shifted the way students approached the classroom – even dubbing the name and brand “J106” – a point of pride for all current and alumni students.

On a personal note, Mr. Ingram’s guidance through the classroom helped steer me not only through high school, but through college as well, where I took on internships and opportunities I otherwise may not have been introduced to – ultimately leading me to be a leader at one of the largest companies in the world. I can confidently say that without J106 and Winslow, I would not be where I am in my career today."

"Mr. Ingram and Winslow Twp. High School is the main reason why I started to gain an interest in a TV/Film career. Without his push and guidance I would have never moved to LA to join the industry. Now, I have worked on numerous sets like Creed 3, Beverly Hill Cop 4, and Snowfall. I will be forever thankful for Mr. Ingram."

"Without the foundation I developed in my film classes at Winslow I wouldn't be as successful as I am today. Mr. Ingram presented me with opportunities to hone my craft outside of the classroom whether it was shooting school events or interviewing my classmates during spirit week, I built confidence and got my first taste of what working in film felt like. I created my first few shorts while under his teaching and discovered the role I wanted to play within the film industry as a Director and set out to make it my career."

"As a young high school student, Mr. Ingram helped guide my passion for creating and gave me every opportunity to grow my skills. If a student had a vision, he would do everything he could to help them bring it to life. The experience I gained while in his class was critical to my career development and he is someone I know I can turn to whenever I’m in need of advice."

"Working with Mr. Ingram at Winslow changed my life forever. I learned key tools that I now apply into my business every single day. His way of educating individuals by breaking down foundational principles in design and production allowed me to create my own framework for being a creative professional in the current industry. Learning in that environment prepared me for a constantly evolving industry with new technologies being released almost every day. I wouldn’t have seen any of the success I’ve currently seen without going through his program at Winslow. I am forever grateful for the experience and tools he’s given me."

"Many skills and lessons were taught by Mr. Norm Ingram in my four year Television Production class but overall my greatest take away was the importance of Professionalism and networking. Ingram has paved the way for many career opportunities. Without his teachings, I would not be able to express my vision and direct the Student Government Association for Rowan University as President. Ingram persevered for his students at Winslow more than I have seen many teachers do, because of his determination many students have left his classroom prepared to not only create amazing content but how to be professional in the real world!"

"If Mr. Ingram didn’t have the same passion for teaching and for production that he did when I was a student, I’m almost certain I would not have pursued a career in this field. There’s not a person better fit to be a teacher than Mr. Ingram. I’m thankful to have been able to be a student in his classroom and learn from someone so knowledgeable and passionate about production."

"Mr. Ingram’s lessons inspired insight into my ambitions. His wisdom enabled me to articulate my ambitions into goals. He facilitated my goals with resources and guidance. Looking back on my career as a professional videographer, it all started with Mr. Ingram’s encouragement and dedication to nurturing creative minds."

"Mr. Ingram's impact on my life goes beyond what words can fully express. He has been more than just a remarkable teacher; he has become a pillar of support and inspiration. Over the span of 6-8 years, his unwavering dedication and willingness to help have been a guiding light during both my educational and personal journeys. Whenever I faced challenges, he was there to offer assistance and encouragement, pushing me to reach my full potential. His teaching style is nothing short of engaging and captivating, ensuring that his students remain focused and eager to learn. However, labeling him solely as a teacher does not do justice to the remarkable qualities he possesses. Mr. Ingram is a true mentor, an exemplar of passion for education, and a genuine motivator who has left an indelible mark on my life. I am forever grateful for his presence and guidance in my life's journey."

"As a Member of the United States Air Force, being a good leader is beyond important. If it weren’t for the guidance and mentorship of Mr.  Ingram over the last seven years, I wouldn’t have achieved the level of leadership I currently express. Mr. Ingram’s passion to ignite others’ strive for success and to be a leader has without a doubt, shown me the importance of good leadership. Thanks to his mentorship, I am reminded everyday to keep striving and reaching to be the best I can be, so I too will be able to emulate his leadership."

"Working with Mr. Ingram and Winslow Twp HS became beneficial in the early stages of my career in media production. I've been given the opportunity to not only experience the workforce in the film industry, but also have hands-on experience in industry standard equipment for live TV/Film Broadcasting. Still, I use all the tools I've learned from experience to help me with any part of production, and working closely with clients."
