Discover how to commission and produce videos that get widely shared without increasing your budget

While many organisations recognise the huge potential for online video, it’s often not clear how to take advantage of it. Videos are commissioned that are professionally produced and meet the brief, but fail to be widely shared. The good news is that if you understand the new world of social video it is possible to produce highly shareable video content without a huge budget.

 

Over the past year Alter Eco have created videos that were  viewed 50 million times & shared 1 million times on Facebook

Over the course of the day, we will teach you the methodology we use to consistently create highly shareable videos for NGOs, charities and other campaigning groups.
