‘how others see and hear you’
This two-day course is an introduction for those with little or no experience of facing the camera or microphone. I aim to give you the confidence to put your point across clearly and concisely.
The programme is designed to coach participants in how to present themselves and their organisations when under pressure during a television or radio interview. The skills covered will also benefit those who have to participate in a corporate video, internal training and video conferencing.
Day One looks at the techniques required for every kind of media situation. Day Two aims to maximise the novice broadcaster’s ability to put the message across in a succinct but persuasive way.
Professional audio and video recording equipment is used on both days to create realistic conditions and to enable the participant and trainer to evaluate performance.
