Video Marketing
Overview
It is no secret that marketing has been completely changed by the digital revolution, it is now possible for organisations to reach a global audience even with a relatively modest budget.
One of the most powerful advertising tools for businesses is content creation for platforms such as Youtube & Vimeo.
One of the most successful advertising campaigns of the past decade was from a little-known appliance company called Blendtec, who's 'Will It Blend' series of videos generated millions of views and made the household appliance company into a household name.
Despite the potential for growth, many organisations are still ignoring video as part of their marketing strategy. This stems from the myth that creating content is an expensive process, either due to the costs of hiring new staff or buying new equipment.
This course has been designed to teach beginners how to create professional looking videos with even the most basic equipment. The course is taught by Bauer Media's award-winning journalists, who know how to create eye-catching video content.
