Mobile Photography & Video – On Campus

COURSE DESCRIPTION
Get ready to find, capture and curate the perfect photos and video for your ongoing content marketing needs and brilliant social feeds.
It’s never been more important to employ beautiful custom imagery into your digital marketing efforts, particularly as each and every social platform becomes more visually rich.
Look no further than Facebook, Instagram or Twitter to see embedded photos, autoplaying videos and plenty of algorithm preference in user newsfeeds for rich, image-containing content.
And since not every business has a professional photography or video production budget, it’s never been more important to learn the right tricks, hone your skills and maximize your chances of photo and videographic success, right from the affordability and familiarity of your mobile phone. AND YES! We’ll be covering Live Video – from livestreaming on Facebook and to starting on Instagram Stories!
