About this workshop

Brand Camp: Video Brand Storytelling Edition is an intensive, hands-on workshop designed to help small business owners confidently tell their story through short-form video content. Through practical instruction, interactive exercises, and live coaching, participants will build the skills and confidence to create authentic videos that connect with their audience and support their marketing goals.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Develop a clear and compelling brand story for short-form video
  • Write engaging video scripts using proven storytelling frameworks such as "Hook, Story, Offer"
  • Build confidence speaking on camera and improve on-camera delivery
  • Create effective videos using smartphones and other accessible production tools
  • Use AI tools responsibly to support content brainstorming, planning, and organization

Second Session:

This is a two-part workshop. There will be a second, follow-up class held virtually on September 10th from 10:00am - 12:00pm. Your registration includes access to both sessions.

Who should attend

This workshop is ideal for small business owners, entrepreneurs, and marketing beginners who want to strengthen their brand presence through video without needing expensive equipment or advanced production experience.

What you’ll walk away with

Participants will leave with practical storytelling strategies, greater confidence creating video content, a personalized content plan, and at least one fully developed video script they can begin using immediately in their business marketing efforts.
