How arts organizations can create authentic short-form video that audiences actually watch.
Join Catherine “Cat” Allen for a hands-on JAM Session exploring how arts organizations can use short-form video to connect with audiences. Designed for both social media managers and organizational leaders, this workshop will show how to create engaging reels and videos using simple tools and authentic storytelling. Participants will leave with practical strategies, clearer insight into analytics, and a short-form video they create during the session.
It is recommended to bring a smartphone capable of capturing and editing video to the event.
