“The Visual Storytelling is a great course to get an introduction on the most important steps for creating a video. During the course, that you can do at your own pace but with a continuous interactions with other students and teachers, I had the opportunity to create a script to describe my own organisation. The interesting feedbacks from the others and the personal discussions within the class helped me a lot to go through the creative process smoothly and effectively.”
