This 3-part training facilitated by Gorm Media’s founder, Mamobo Ogoro, will guide you in transforming written journalistic news and opinion pieces into dynamic and engaging video content for STAND News.

Please note that the first session has already taken place, and that this announcement is for you to take part in the 2nd session! We will be focusing on the "Framing" aspect of video journalism and multimedia content creation.

In order to get the most out of this training, we highly recommend that participants attend all 3 training sessions. If you missed the original registration, you can sign up now and we'll send you a recording of the first session!

The next session will take place on January 17th at 5:00 PM. If you'd like to take part, make sure to sign up at least 24 hours prior.

All levels of writers, journalists, and social justice-minded activists currently enrolled or recently graduated from a 3rd level institution in Ireland are encouraged to join! Participants will receive guidance on creative and technical aspects of developing scripts, insights into shooting and editing decisions, and support for considering design elements. As a participant you’ll have the opportunity to join the STAND News Team and to showcase your work on the STAND News website!

Accessibility is a major focus of this training, so the focus will be on using smartphones for filming, and using Canva and other free video editing software.
