Digital video viewing has become mainstream, and mobile is driving the growth, film and TV are big business and the UK continues to meet the growing demand for content and world-class skills, talent and technical expertise

The Video Accelerator is perfect for you if you are passionate about video and would like to explore various aspects of video making in a fun, practical and creative manner. Via practical workshops, presentations and hands on learning, the accelerator will provide you with experience and support in producing amazing videos, whether you use a smartphone, webcam, DSLR or professional camera.

Whether you're a YouTuber, blogger, vlogger, business owner, aspiring filmmaker, or just someone who wants to create videos, you will learn how to make professional videos with this course.

No previous experience in video is required as you will be introduced to all aspects of the process such as lighting, sound, editing and operating digital cameras. However basic experience with a film editing package will be beneficial.

Upon successful completion of the Video Accelerator, you will become a diploma accredited video professional. You may then wish to progress onto a Creative Process content production apprenticeship with one of the many employers we work with such as Warner Bros, ITN and BT Sport, develop your freelance portfolio or secure any number of opportunities in the video and film industry.
