30hr Social Media Video Training Program

30 Training Hours (delivered virtually or in-person – based on client preference)

Training Investment: $10,000 CAD + GST

Module #1 (1.5 hrs): Company Objectives, Equipment Assessment & Recommendations

In this module, the Facilitator will do a top-level introduction of the training journey to the Trainee, go in depth into the desired learning outcomes, as well as an audit of the current equipment on hand, providing equipment recommendations where needed. The Facilitator and Trainee will map out the training schedule of the Modules listed below.

Module #2 (6 hr): Mobile Video Training

In this module, we dig into the tool-kit of the modern social media video content producer and begin putting into practice common videography skills and tools including shots, framing, angles, lighting and sound. The Trainee will learn the different variations of shots, how to use framing and angles to tell a specific story and convey specific information to their audience, along with the fundamentals of lighting (how to work with natural light, ambient light, as well as artificial light), and sound. Participants will then shoot and edit a practice video on their phone with the help of their Facilitator using the GoPro Quik App.

Module #3 (1.5 hrs): Brand Voice & Storytelling

In this module, we begin the journey of figuring out the who, what, where, when and why of your video for social media plan. We have a solid look at who your customers are and do a number of exercises to help you define your company’s social media ‘voice’, or ‘personality’, and get clarity around the company ‘why’.

Module #4 (1.5 hrs): Idea Generation

The Trainee, in collaboration with the Facilitator, will review a number of types and styles of video as they move into creating their own script and full production video in Module #4. The client will be required to bring video examples they like to the session to support the ideation process.

Module #5 (1.5 hrs): Script Writing

In this Module, Trainees will take their ideas from the Ideation Module and begin to brainstorm further concepts to bring their story to life. The Facilitator will assist in story structure and mapping out a script scene by scene, as well as creating a shot list or voice over script where needed.

Module #6 (2 hrs): Pre-Production & Equipment Training

Part of every Production day is the Pre-Production process where the logistics of the Shoot Day are mapped out and all parties involved are informed of the when, where, and how of filming. Additional logistics can include props, catering, accessing the location, or specific equipment requirements.
In addition, getting comfortable with the proper tools for filming, sound and lighting is an integral part of the learning process. After getting clarity around the logistics of the Shoot Day, this Module focuses on creating a no-pressure space for the Trainee to get familiar with their camera/phone, sound and lighting equipment, while also doing a practice set up (micing, mic check, setting up lights, practicing framing, shots and angles, etc.).

Module #7 (5 hrs): Production (Shoot Day!)

The Shoot Day is where all of the previous completed Modules come together! The Trainee will put to use all of the knowledge and practice skills they’ve learned up to this point to shoot the footage needed for their final video project with the assistance of their Facilitator.

Module #8 (9 hrs @ 3 X 3hr Sessions ): Editing

An important piece of moving into the Editing phase of the Trainee’s video project is understanding file organization and structure, as well as the interface of their Editing Software of choice. The Editing Module(s) will focus on creating the Trainee’s finished product. This Module is broken down into 3 X 3hr sessions for maximum learning and retention. The Trainee will learn all of the basic video editing functions needed to create a professional looking video.

Module #9 (.5 hr): Purposing
