On-Camera Workshops
Media Potential originally began with a 10 week on-camera coaching course, and we certainly have had a great number of success stories walk through our doors and onto your screens.
The skills that were then required to be great TV talent have now transferred mainly to the digital world due to the rise and reach of social media.
If you want know what it takes to be engaging on camera or online, get in touch for some coaching or one on one workshops.
CEO Video Messaging
Digital communication is vital for any big business and leaders are now, more than ever, choosing to share their messages via video.
It makes sense… you can reach many more people at the same time across large organisations, and if it’s done well, with the right language and professional delivery the messages are more likely to resonate.
While most CEO’s and business leaders already have strong communication skills… presenting on camera requires different skills to ensure you keep your audience engaged.
Your video messaging should reflect your own brand as well as your business. The right language and lighting are crucial, and the presenter must be authentic, engaging and to the point.
Our many years in television and corporate key-note coaching, make Media Potential the perfect partner to help guide you through what can be an intimidating experience.
This 2-hour workshop includes: one on one coaching with Suzanne Stark, a camera operator with professional lighting and audio and an edited copy of the speech, ready to be sent out.
