In this three-day workshop, participants will gain valuable insights into creating videos and marketing them for multimedia, NGO/ Foundations/ nonprofits, and editorial content. Short films, feature documentaries, and experimental video storytelling will be presented and discussed.

Attendees will learn essential techniques for transitioning their photographic skills to the world of video, focusing on capturing compelling scenes and crafting engaging narratives in linear video storytelling. The workshop will emphasize the theoretical aspects of video production, highlighting the importance of shot selection and sequence creation to effectively communicate a story. Ed will also demonstrate examples of experimental and non-linear videos.

By the end of the workshop, photographers will have a solid foundation in the principles of video storytelling and a clearer understanding of how to diversify their services and branch out into the growing field of video work.
