Join us for a hands-on workshop where we will be co-creating the brief for a powerful new short video about worker co-ops. This brief will be used to guide the content of our new video, which will likely include shooting at the Autumn Assembly in Glasgow later in the year.
This session follows on from the video workshop at the Worker Co-op Weekend in May, where members from various co-ops got together to analyse 4 clips from existing worker co-op videos in order to pick out what we liked and didn't for a new workers.coop video.
You don't need any experience in Communications, and you will gain skills through attending.
This is for you if:
- You work in a workers co-op, or
- You care about how we talk about worker co-ops
- You want to improve digital worker co-op representation
- You're interested in storytelling and media
Please join the workshop on a laptop or desktop, not on your phone, as we'll be using an online whiteboard.
Please let sam@workers.coop know if you're planning to join us.
