Creative Video Production Workshop
​
Trai originally devised this unique training programme for UK television network Channel 4, to train young film makers and spot talent. Over 1000 young people have benefitted from these workshops throughout the UK, and many have gone on to successful media careers.
Now Trai is making the same resources available to corporate clients, charities and small businesses. By equipping key staff or volunteers in the skills of video production you can produce high quality digital content without having to continually spend big on external production companies.

Absolutely none! We will take you through the whole process from start to finish and have a lot of fun along the way.

​
Do I need Expensive Camera Gear?
No definitely not! We believe that ideas and heart are the key to inspiring film, not expensive equipment. And we want you to be able to carry on film making when you get back to work, so we teach on smartphone, tablet and any camera equipment you have to hand. At Channel 4 we taught film making exclusively on iPad so that our young participants could use the skills they learned on our workshops out in the real world.
