How to tell your story clearly and confidently in front of the camera.

For many, being on camera feels unnatural and exposing. But as communication relies more and more on video, and making a strong impression, being camera-shy is no longer an option.

After this course, we can’t promise you’ll feel as comfortable in front of the camera as a movie star or broadcast anchor. But you’ll be able to tell your organisation’s story and deliver your message more convincingly on-screen. Build confidence on camera.

What you'll learn

In this workshop you’ll learn how to deliver an effective live and recorded piece to camera.

In this hands-on course, you’ll learn to deliver a snappy soundbite, convey a powerful message or tell a compelling story on screen. Whether it’s for a corporate video, LinkedIn live or making an on-camera statement, we’ll help you make the most of your video appearance.

The course is highly interactive, with participants speaking on camera and receiving personalised feedback from the trainer. From the start, participants will practice delivering from scripted content in a natural and confident way. They will also practice leaving the script behind and delivering key messages authentically, without relying on written prompts.
