About this Event
Thinking about getting started with video, but not sure where to begin? Maybe you've started dabbling already but would love some tips and tricks?
We're putting together a beginner-friendly Video 101 session designed to simplify the process, build confidence, and give you practical skills you can start using straight away.
Whether you're a photographer wanting to branch into video, or someone completely new to filming, this session is designed to make video feel way less overwhelming
We'll cover topics like:
- Settings made simple
- Lighting basics for better-looking footage
- Audio tips and tools
- Beginner-friendly video workflows
- Hands-on time with gear and setups
- Practical filming tips for real-world shoots
- Editing basics
6:00pm arrival for a 6:30pm start
This session will include live demos, real-world examples, and opportunities to ask questions and test things our yourself.
The goal isn't to make it all more technical, it's to help you understand what it actually means to capture good video, without needing a huge set up or years of experience.
