Practical, hands-on workshops that build the skills and confidence to create better video content.
We work with businesses and organisations to develop their people, adapting the training around their experience, what they want to achieve and the content they need to create.
From one-day workshops to longer programmes, we help people learn by doing and leave with the confidence to keep creating.
That's where our workshops come in.
We take the skills and experience we've built working in television and make them practical and accessible. You'll learn how to find the strongest ideas, plan your content, film with confidence and make the most of the equipment you already have.
For teams, we can build workshops around the challenges you're facing and the content you actually need to create. For individuals, we can provide more focused, one-to-one support to help you develop your skills.
The aim isn't to turn you into a filmmaker overnight. It's to give you the confidence and practical skills to create better content yourself.
There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to learning video.
Some people are picking up a camera for the first time and need to build confidence. Others already have experience and want to develop particular skills or create better content for their organisation.
Our workshops follow a proven practical approach, but we adapt the content to the people in the room and what you want to achieve.
You might want to develop your team's confidence, learn how to tell better stories, create short-form content, interview people, film yourselves or produce a series of films.
Whatever the starting point, the aim is the same: learn by doing, create something real and leave with the confidence to keep making content yourself.
"Hello I’m Hannah Jones from the Farm Carbon Tool Kit, I've just finished the Down to Earth Media training with Alex. We’ve had two days of fun, and slight embarrassment, but it's been incredibly empowering going from not knowing anything about producing small video clips, I feel that I can do it now. Its recognising that video clips are a really important way for us to learn alongside standard means of reading documents or hearing talks so thank you Alex, it was great."
