Telling Your Story Through Video

1 day

People listen today with their eyes, not their ears. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Viewers see pictures at a rate of at least 24 pictures (frames) per second, underlining the impact and power of this medium. To successfully engage someone in your business or give to your charity the use of video is critical.

Training by experts in this media field to assist your organization to acquire these best practices. You can review what you are doing now and plan a strategy that has the greatest impact. But, this won’t empty the bank. In this training, we’ll cover every question you have from developing a story, which editing software is needed, to what gear you may need if you're shooting it yourself. We also address the question of the pros and cons of hiring a professional vs. using internal resources.
