Training in Presenting, Filmmaking, Photography and Climate Literacy.
If you want to train a group, or one on one training, our creators can help share your science.
STORYTELLING
Our Science Communication training is largely based around the idea of sharing stories with your audience. That could be stories of other scientists and engineers and the amazing work they’ve done, or it could be your own work or that of your department.
Telling a good science story doesn’t mean you have to tell fairytales, but it does mean you add more context around data and facts that we often share without the extra supporting narrative.
We work with scientists worldwide, from National Geographic to the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and more, to help them share their science in a simple, understandable way so more people understand their work and engage in their content.
PRESENTING
Our Presenter Training is designed to give scientists the opportunity to get to the heart of their story and gain knowledge of how to put a video or a talk together and deliver it well.
It’s for all scientists and explorers who use social media, film and public speaking as part of the way they share stories, and for organisations and universities who want to be seen in the best light. For Universities we run collective training sessions for multiple scientists.
We look at everything from presenting to camera right through to stage craft and delivery for live talks. We work at the scientists pace to get the most out of them.
FILMMAKING
Our filmmaking training is designed to make sure scientists and explorers know how to use their own cameras, capture clean audio and the essentials behind getting quality footage that you and your team can use.
We look at filmmaking from the core concepts of storytelling, whilst making sure that the essentials of tech knowledge are woven in.
The aim is for scientists to create more compelling content for their own social media channels, and potentially also create some media that can be used by funders and universities.
PHOTOGRAPHY
Anturus Photography Training looks at how to capture story driven pictures in the field. Scientists might need to capture images for their studies and research and show others what they do and tell stories about their travels.
For some funders it’s beneficial to work with scientists who can take compelling images for use in blogs, social media posts and more. The training teaches the basics of photography through indoor classrooms (sometimes virtual) but then moves outside to look at how we capture dynamic images in the field.
This training won’t negate the need for professional photography in certain areas, but it will make sure scientists are capturing great shots and delivering story at its best every time they’re out in the field.
CLIMATE LITERACY
Our Climate Literacy Training breaks down climate science and shows not only how global warming works but why it works the way it does and why humans have caused it. We cover the natural processes and see if engineering can provide solutions.
