We’re living in unprecedented times. Our virtual community is more important than ever, so we’re sending out this note to give you some assurance that we’re here and we’re thinking of ways to support you.
We know that many of the educators in our community are taking the smart step of moving classes to a remote environment, and we’re here to help you make that transition.
We’re offering MediaStorm’s acclaimed training, regularly priced at $199 for only $45.
Our online training can make all the difference for students who are struggling to adapt to a virtual classroom.
For the past fifteen years, we’ve partnered with universities from across the world to offer our online training program in filmmaking, editing, and production. Our work is sought out by educators from around the world.
“I started using MediaStorm’s Online Training videos as a part of a flipped classroom, so that students could learn the “how-to” outside of class, allowing for a more hands-on learning and discussion during class sessions. It’s been an invaluable set of tools that reach and engage students with varying skills. The support and service from MediaStorm is excellent, which encourages me to continue to be a loyal client.”
-Mikki K. Harris, Assistant Professor, Journalism and Sports Program at Morehouse College
“I have been using MediaStorm’s Online Training videos for 6 years now as part of my class curriculum in beginning multimedia classes. They are a great addition to my lectures and help prepare the students for our work outside of the classroom. Brian and his staff have done an excellent job explaining the technical concepts of multimedia storytelling in both an entertaining and easy to understand format that keeps my students engaged while watching the videos.”
-Laura L. Camden, Associate Professor of Photojournalism and Documentary Studies at Northern Arizona University- School of Communication
Our comprehensive training package complements most filmmaking courses, and can spark creativity in students who are struggling to find inspiration in these challenging times.
WHAT YOU GET
- Divided into six modules, and led by our team of producers, editors, and cinematographers, these videos provide essential techniques and useful tips and tools to successfully create powerful stories.
- The training modules can be incorporated into your program syllabus just like a textbook and can be accessed by students at any time during the semester.
- Apart from the Reporting and Post-production tracks, which teach specific theory and skills used by MediaStorm, the Making Of modules offer a behind-the-scenes look at this methodology being put into practice, by dissecting the many decisions in the making of four different films.
- Our newest series, MediaStorm Post Production Workflow: A Technical Guide to Being Creative is a ‘start to finish’ guide that details the technical, organizational and creative techniques we find crucial to the storytelling process, and it’s something we use on every film we produce. This workflow has been continually updated for over a decade, and now your students will get the chance to learn from that experience.
We’d love to add your institution to the roster of universities using the MediaStorm training guide to prepare the next generation of filmmakers.
As we turn towards a socially distant way of life, we want to remind you that creativity often sparks brightest when we’re alone, undistracted. So we hope you take the opportunity to work on that passion project, pull up those archived files, and see what you can bring to your work anew. And if you’re looking for ways to light that spark in your students during these challenging times, we hope that our training can help.
