Best Practices in Promotional Video Planning

Have you ever wondered how to make a polished promotional video for your organization? What content would you choose? What is the best way to present it? How long should it be? Where should you shoot it? And what about lighting, backdrops, cameras, tripods? Then there's editing and music... all on very, very tight budget.

Join us for our inaugural meeting of the Tech4Good - Los Angeles Chapter, where we will discuss how to achieve this very thing.
