Visual Storytelling - Lunch & Learn
Visual storytelling is one of the most powerful ways charities can share their impact, but many organisations feel like video is too technical, expensive, or time-consuming.
In this lunchtime session, Scotty Martin (Marketing & Communications Specialist at Acorn Foundation) will show how organisations can create engaging videos using nothing more than a smartphone and free tools like Canva.
You’ll learn a simple framework for filming short event videos, how to capture meaningful video clips with your phone, and how to quickly turn that footage into social media content that connects with your audience.
The session will also include a live demonstration of filming and editing a short video in real time, showing just how quick and achievable it can be.
Perfect for community groups, and social sector organisations who want to tell better stories online without needing expensive equipment or professional video skills.
