Media Training Courses

Media Training is a vital part of any company's PR and communications strategy in the 21st century. Television has become a powerful influence on public opinion, and the feeding frenzy whipped up by a big story can easily overwhelm those who have to manage a response. Our Media Training can help you control and manage.

So how do you handle the situation when a television news crew comes to interview you? How do you ensure that it's the message that you want to get across which hits the airwaves? Our Media Training course can put you in a position where you call the shots. Creative Imagineers' team has a strong background in television news, and can give you the inside information on how to turn an opportunity to your advantage. Our flexible Media Training Courses give you practical experience of what it's like to face the camera. Our staff have worked as reporter, cameraman and news editor, so we've seen it from all angles.

On-Camera Training

We'll show you how to deal with an agressive interviewer, and offer feedback on how to look your most composed on screen. There's advice on how to deal with those awkward questions you don't want to answer, and practical demonstrations of the differences between studio and location interviews. Depending on your needs, we can work on a one-to-one basis, or run media training courses for small groups of individuals.

The time is split between theory and practice. An interview on camera is followed by a performance review and advice. With Creative Imagineers you get knowledge, experience and coaching all in one Media Training course.

How Well Would You Perform On Camera?

The banana skins of modern day life can so easily catch you out. Even the most experienced get it wrong, and the results can be disastrous. Think of Gerald Ratner and his comments about a sherry decanter; William Hague and a baseball cap; Michael Howard and the Jeremy Paxman interview; John Prescott and that punch. If those who are experienced in such matters get it so wrong, what chance will you have of a flawless performance?

So it's important that you get an opportunity to be at ease with the camera. You don't have to become a polished television presenter. But you do need to be able to concentrate on what you want to say without being nervous of the camera.

So what do you think? Could you be as natural? Would you be able to talk confidently about a complex subject under stress? Let one of our Media Training Courses give you a fighting chance.
