Making videos can seem a bit daunting, let’s remove the barriers and start pressing record. In this hands-on session, Kevin Davids, Videographer at Raiveon, will guide you through best practices to capturing high-quality video with your smartphone. You’ll capture video footage to use in the next session which is video editing. Footage could include a piece to camera, an interview plus supplementary footage.

You’ve got the raw footage but how do you piece it together and make it an engaging and accessible video to share? In this follow-on session, Jayne Davids, Trainer and Video Specialist at Raiveon, will guide you through arranging and editing the raw footage in Camtasia, a video editor. You’ll add a graphic to identify the speaker, plus use AI to transcribe and add dynamic captions.

In this workshop we’ll take a whistlestop tour through ideating, recording, editing and publishing a podcast. You’ll get hands-on with a simple ideation canvas, a range of recording equipment, and free editing software. The processes you learn will enable you to create whatever kind fo podcast you want.
