EVENT ALERT: Register for the 2025 CoCreate Wedding Showcase now!
CoCreate is excited to partner with The Media Workshop Studio, Led by Emmy® award-winning director and UConn professor Dr. Oscar Guerra, for a hands-on, three-part media production series designed to give you real, career-ready creative skills.
Pre-Production: Story, Strategy & AI Workflows
During this two-week course, you will learn how to shape ideas with intention by defining audience, message, and story structure before production begins. Using accessible AI tools as creative support, participants will develop repeatable workflows and prompts that help them brainstorm, refine, and organize ideas for any type of content: social media, branded campaigns, promotional, or educational media.
Production: Camera, Light & Sound
During this two-week hands-on workshop, we will focus on the essential tools of media production (camera, lighting, and sound) so participants can confidently capture high-quality footage in real-world situations. Through demonstrations and guided practice, you will learn how to frame shots, light subjects, and record clean audio using your own gear, while also receiving personalized recommendations on what equipment to buy or upgrade based on your experience level and creative goals.
Post-Production: Video Editing with Adobe Premiere (Basic)
During this two-week course, we will review the fundamentals of video editing using Adobe Premiere to turn raw footage into clear, engaging stories. In this hands-on workshop, you will cut scenes, refine pacing, work with sound, and understand how editing shapes meaning, without getting overwhelmed by technical details.
