Workshop info Never before have we been able to film our adventures in such quality and accessibility. But there is a craft to filmmaking beyond pressing the record button. A craft that within this short workshop we will unpack to reveal some fundamentals to take your adventure filmmaking to the next level.

The main difference between something ‘amateur’ to a ‘professional’ is the ability to tell a story with any tools at their disposal, from iPhone to Go-Pro it doesn't matter, it's what you capture that counts.

In this unique workshop, we will discover how to bring to life any adventure from simple notes before you have even set forth to how to edit your film once back.

From the kind of shots you will need, to how to talk to the camera (self-filming) to ‘interviewing’ teammates to shooting for voiceover when there are too many facts and figures about the place you are adventuring in. Everything you will need to take your own adventure filmmaking to the next level will be covered.

We will also explore the world of recording sound when wind and elements are kicking back.

By the end of this fun and practical workshop, we will have transformed your clips on your phone into a powerful, beautiful and above all memorable account of your adventures, whether it's for a film festival to appease sponsors, social media like YouTube or just something to look back upon.
