Video Training for Academics

Learn to produce high quality videos 

OxCo’s academic video training programmes cover a full curriculum in video-creation, from script development to dissemination strategy.

They equip participants with a powerful toolkit of techniques and a creative foundation adaptable to a wide variety of digital projects. By the end of the training, participants have all the resources they need to leverage the latest AI powered technologies to create videos that maximise research impact, academic engagement and science communication.  

Video tools became essential in the current research environment –  learning to video is relevant to research, teaching, as well as impact activities. To allow academics to make the most out of today’s academic landscape, OxCo trains faculty members (researchers, professors, lecturers), staff members (communication managers and media officers), as well as postgraduate and postdoctoral students. All participants engage in an active, hands-on learning experiences, during which they will produce their own videos.

In line with the core missions of academic institutions, we offer three training programmes focusing on: research (see ‘Video as a Research Tool‘), teaching (see ‘Hybrid Pedagogy‘) and impact (see ‘Your Research in Film‘).
