I wanted to make engaging videos for my business but didn't know where to start, now I have the confidence to create! I know how to plan a video, how to frame shots, different lengths of videos and when best to use each type of shot. I enjoyed learning and understanding the planning process and timeline, and making a short video together in week 2, this gave me so much more confidence. Our tutor has a fluid approach which allowed us all to get what we needed from the course. It was such a great course and gave me so much confidence.
