Video Education Workshop
Video Education Workshops are always customized to the needs of each partner.
Through a four-day Video Education Workshop (VEW), organizations build their capacity to use video and mobile projectors to better engage with communities and use effective behavior change communication videos for training.
illuminAid believes in the power of learning by doing. We administer a four-day hands on-workshop designed to teach beginners how to create, edit, and disseminate video. Our goal is that by the end of the workshop, participants will have learned how to translate their behavior change curriculum into the powerful and effective medium of video that can be screened in local villages.
VEWs involve interactive sessions that are a combination of lecture and hands-on training. These sessions occur over four-days and include:
Introduction to video as a tool for behavior change communication
Content creation: storyboarding and scriptwriting
Community-driven content creation: Filming in the beneficiary community
Content creation: Editing videos
Training on mobile projectors and how to effectively show videos at the community level through mediated discussion
Personalized consultation session with leadership and participants to design video production and screening workflow schedule
The workshop is designed for non-technical staff members without any prior knowledge of video production; the only prerequisite is that participants are familiar with using a laptop computer. During the workshop, illuminAid works with our partner organization to create a realistic video production and screening schedule. Follow up training sessions are arranged with illuminAid’s local video trainers.
