This Sunday the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS) is partnering with YouTube to deliver a free, exclusive one-day workshop at the Google Sydney office to help filmmakers ages 16-18 become YouTube’s next overnight sensations.
AFTRS is Australia's national screen arts and broadcast school, with an alumni list that is a veritable who's who of the Australian film industry. For example, one of AFTRS alumni, Damien Power, was showcased as a finalist in YouTube’s Your Film Festival in Venice last weekend with his touching film “Bat Eyes.”
At the workshop, our experts on YouTube will be sharing their top tips and tricks for making the most of videos, teaching you how to make the digital leap from being a hit at your local school to achieving global superstardom.
In addition to AFTRS’ teachers, YouTube sensations Christiaan and Nick from Bondi Hipsters will also be hosting sessions on content production at the masterclass on Sunday. You might remember Nick from his original internet sensation “Beached Az” and the duo together in their more recent videos such as “Bondi Hipsters: On Recreational Sports”.
Participants in the 'YouTube Star for Day' workshop will learn about:
- Next generation content
- Broadening opportunities as a YouTube creator
- Getting a start on YouTube
- Building channels and audience
- Scripting ideas
- Camera, lighting and sound techniques
