It’s official, the Indonesian government has just announced new visas for anyone to join an internship in Bali and we couldn’t be more excited.

Internships are a way to take everything you’ve learned at school or university or through a bootcamp and put it into practice, getting practical experience & mentorship in the field.

We’re going to be offering 4x internships open to candidates from all over the world to spend 3-6 months in Bali learning from our team… you’ll get an inside scoop into running a creative agency , and a photography studio & events space .

Applications are opening soon with more details to come, so for now if you’re interested comment below “intern” or tell us why you’d love to intern in Bali with us and we’ll share all the details with you as soon as they are released.

We’ll only be taking one one intern for each field to ensure our team has the time to provide our interns with mentorship & support — if you want an internship where you sit on your phone and order coffee for the team, this isn’t it. You’ll be in the action on real client photoshoots, seeing behind the scenes of everything and learning alongside creatives with years of experience.

Internships open:
- studio & hotel photography
- marketing & social media
- web development
- content marketing & SEO

Dates:
Internship duration is 3-6 months and can be part of a university program or independent, exact dates flexible for the right candidate.

I had a call with one of students recently, she was adapting to life with a new baby and while the web dev business she has built was already supporting her, she wanted to explore how she could increase her income without spending any more time.

This is one of my favourite topics so we dove in, discussing everything from how she could refine her niche, attract higher calibre clients, and streamline her process to finish each project faster. But the topic that left the most impact, that she hasn’t considered before was how she could leverage strategic partnerships and referrals to add passive income every month.

For her, this meant finding partners she trusted that had skills or time she didn’t to recommend to her clients (copywriter, graphic designer, photographer, SEO or ads expert etc) and earning a commission for every referral.

And while this is something anyone who has a creative business can do, it’s also something you can tap into *before* you even start a business - find trusted partners to recommend, they do the work and you get paid.

There are loads of businesses out there doing amazing work that will happily pay a commission for any clients you refer, and often you already have a network of potential clients to choose from.

One of our alumni has even made this their entire business - they go in to businesses as a consultant with a high level audit of what the business needs, and then they recommend the people, businesses & tools to make it happen.

So next Wednesday we’re hosting a free workshop teaching you how to do the same - with real examples of referral programs that you can join. For our alumni, you can watch it on demand whenever you like and for our broader community we’ll share free access for one day only.

- beginner friendly
- no previous skills or experience needed
- walk away understanding how to make an extra $500+ per month in passive income through referring businesses you trust

Nine months ago we set out to completely revamp the business portion of our creative digital bootcamps. We had designed the curriculum only a few years earlier to be timeless, and while everything we taught is just as relevant today as it was the day we filmed it, there was something missing. In the last few years the world has changed.

AI has flipped the script on everything — from how you pitch your worth and communicate the value of human talent to potential clients, to the way you manage projects and run your business. It can be used across almost every stage of the creative workflow and, when used well, it’s a superpower that takes care of the grunt work and frees up your time to focus on what you do best.

There is so much fear out there that AI will steal our jobs. And while it’s true that industries are being shaken up, I don’t believe it’s an inevitable threat. Over the past few months we’ve rebuilt our business curriculum from scratch to show every aspiring photographer, web developer and marketer who joins one of our courses how to turn AI from a potential threat into an opportunity.

The new curriculum is more hands-on, more practical, and shows you step by step how we built our business, landed clients, managed projects and more.

Entirely new business lessons launch in our October bootcamps, and as always, every single one of our alumni will receive free access to the updates.

When Emilio & I were young we made a promise to ourselves that no matter how busy life got we would always find ways to spark joy, to chase adventure and to be in the moment.

Running our own business gave us the freedom to to that - to prioritise experiences over things, book spontaneous trips where we can work remotely (to South America, Italy, Japan, Thailand and many more), and always make time for the people we love and the projects that inspire us.

So to celebrate 10 years since we had the idea that seemed a little crazy at the time - to launch an immersive bootcamp that could teach people everything they needed to know to start a thriving creative business in under 3 months we wanted to give back to the community that has supported us over the years and show our support for you.

We’ll pay the first $1000 worth of tuition for 100x people who are ready to change their lives and build a business on their terms.

Applications are open now, via the link in our bio.

When .visuals joined IOC her goal was to become a photographer and have a business that could allow her to travel and support her family.

And now? She’s booking out campaigns with luxury fashion and swim brands, travelling back and forth between Bali & Australia and showing her daughter that being a ‘girl boss’ doesn’t have to mean sacrificing the things that matter most to you.

Cass, we couldn’t be prouder of you for taking that leap of faith and believing you and your family deserved more.



To celebrate our last Bali photography bootcamp starting on the 5th May, we’ll be sharing stories of students who started the program with little to no experience and are now living their dream lives.

Next month we’ll be hosting our last ever Bali bootcamp - so to celebrate the magic of this program we’ve been running for ten years and our 500th student we’ve got 3x $2000 scholarships up for grabs to help you change your life.

This is a zero-to-hero program where you can join with zero previous experience and we’ll teach you everything you need to know to build a thriving web dev business — and then we’ll be by your side whenever you need us in our mastermind program.

There are only 3 spots left, and this is the last Bali web dev bootcamp ever so if you’ve had this on your bucket list for a while, let this be your sign that the time is now.

If you want to be considered for one of the $2k scholarships, slide into our DMs and let’s chat!

You asked, we listened.

Last year we asked how we could help you make this your best year yet, and in response we filmed a series of 9x in-depth free workshops to help you build a life that makes you happy - that gives you more time, more flexibility, and more financial security.

So many of you reached out to share how helpful you found these videos, that we wanted to re release them for one month to make 2024 your year.

To prioritise you and build a life on your terms. We hope you find them helpful.

“Those two days changed my life.

I had never considered a career in web dev, to be honest I didn’t really even know what coding was but a friend forwarded me your website in a weekend challenge and I thought hey why not give it a shot?

It’s not an exaggeration to say that those two days changed my life. They sparked a fire in me for coding and I fell in love with it from the very first lines I wrote. By the end of the weekend I wasn’t just hooked I was excited - something I hadn’t felt about my 9-to-5 job in a very long time.

I was nervous to take a new passion and turn it into a career but I decided that’s life’s too short, so I enrolled in the digital bootcamp and the rest is history. I get to wake up every day and do something creative I love, and get paid for it. I’m working with the best clients and my business is growing and if it wasn’t for that two day weekend of coding I would probably still be stuck in a cubicle… so thank you.”

— conversations with an IOC alumni this week got us in the feels. It’s been a little while since we’ve hosted a live event, so with our next web dev digital bootcamp starting in Feb we thought it could be fun to host another beginner friendly coding workshop.

We want to make sure we have the resources to give every student one-on-one support so this will be a ticketed event and to help everyone have the opportunity to try coding for themselves and build a live website from scratch, we’re giving away the first 100x tickets to our live Website in a Weekend event on the 6th & 7th January for free (general admission tickets will be $150).

Want in? Comment below and tell us why you want to join or tag a friend who deserves one of the free tickets!

Day 6 of the advanced photography bootcamp here in Bali: adventure day 🌴

Today was all about experiencing what it takes to be an adventure/travel/campaign photographer.

That means chasing sunrise and sunset, it means early starts and long days but it can one of the most fun/rewarding types of photography which is why we cover it in the Bali bootcamp.

We headed north from Canggu to check out a beautiful lake and majestic waterfall, taking two amazing models with us and a range of styling to give our students variety in their portfolio - from summer dresses to wintering jumpers.

When we say we go all out to make sure our students succeed, we mean it and gosh darn are we proud of what they produced in these challenging conditions 💪🏼

If you have ever thought about joining one of our bootcamps whether that’s online or in-person, now is the time to sign up with $1500 off any of our courses 😳

We can’t wait to welcome you to the IOC family so we too can see your smiling faces as you too, build the life of your dreams 🔥

We are excited to be sharing our biggest sale to date with up to $1500 off any course 🔥

For us this time of year is all about setting up the foundations of a strong year ahead, so we wanted to give you an alternative to buying another sweater that you don't really need - a chance to invest in your future, & make an positive impact on the world at the same time.

So we decided to take it a step further and give back the beautiful people of the island we now called home, Bali.

And we think one of the best ways we can give back is through the gift of education.

So for every bootcamp purchased between now and the end of this year, we'll give a full-ride scholarship to one of our beginner friendly foundation courses (worth $350 each) to a Balinese person who wants to learn in-demand digital skills - empowering a generation of Balinese people to learn tangible digital skills and start their own online business.

So make sure to nominate a Balinese person you believe deserves a scholarship by sending us a DM and if you want to enroll in one of our courses, head to the link in bio 🤗

Day 5 of the advanced photography Bali bootcamp:

After a massive day of business and editing it was so awesome to see the students decide to head out after class by themselves to take all the knowledge they had learnt over the past few days and just shoot to have fun and be creative!

It’s crazy how close our students become after just a few days together and it’s one of the elements we are most proud of - being able to create an environment that fosters collaboration and peer based learning. And while every group of students is different, there is always this common thread that ties it all together 🤗

P.S. HUUUUGE Black Friday sale is dropping this weekend. Stay tuned for more details on stories and if you are subscribed to our mailing list, make sure to keep an eye out for something extra special 🤫

Our Story

Learn in-demand digital skills whilst having an experience of a lifetime.

Our programs combine mentor-supported online learning with a 10-day intensive in Bali to help help you launch a new career in web development or social media marketing in only two months.

We’re like no school you’ve ever been to before - trust us. Our immersive, one-of-a-kind courses connect students with leading industry experts and trainers in an accelerated learning environment. Over 10 days in a luxury pool villa, we take an ambitious group of budding and established entrepreneurs, designers, marketers - with little to no technical experience - and teach them how to build beautiful responsive websites, wield a camera, create inspirational Instagram feeds, write 12 month business strategies and more. Our courses are hands-on and project based, meaning students will be coding, shooting, writing, pitching and strategising – you name it – from the very first day. By the end of your chosen course, you will have measurable results – perhaps a portfolio of 2-3 responsive websites or some content marketing jobs lined up. Not bad, right?

We work hard on bootcamp but we also provide plenty of downtime and luxury touches to get you in ‘the zone’. Between an on-site chef whipping up delicious meals to blissful yoga lessons and intrepid explorations of Canggu, you’ll walk away from this experience inspired and ready to take on the world.
