Welcome to Affordable Video Production for Non-profits.
Small organisations often have little time and money to invest in video. This course has been tailored to their specific circumstance.
Skip the months of struggle and learn to make professional-looking videos for your organisations on your phone with this course, designed for all skill levels.
This simple introductory video was made at home, in lockdown under COVID-19, as have all the materials for this course.
The resources used were minimal and to hand: a printer, coloured card, scissors and a phone and laptop.
This course aims to support you. You will develop video production skills that you can use for the benefit of your organisation.
You might be a member of staff looking to produce videos yourself, or to manage their production. Perhaps you are a volunteer – research shows that many low-budget non-profit videos are made by volunteers.
Or maybe you’re someone developing your skills to seek work in the sector. If so, this course will help you get going with production.
The skills you can build on this course are also relevant for anyone who wants to begin producing their own video. They are also helpful for managing a video project with minimal time, resources, and knowledge.
