Full course overview

Want to get started with video but think you need an expensive camera, a studio and hours of editing? Good news: a smartphone, a few settings and the right AI tools are all it takes to produce professional-quality videos and visuals.

What you will learn

You begin with strategy: who your channel is for, what promise it makes and what content to publish. Next, you write your scripts with AI while keeping your own voice. Then you move on to practice: lighting, sound and framing on a smartphone, editing with CapCut, DaVinci Resolve or Descript, and all the AI features that save you time (automatic subtitles, silence removal, voice clean-up, vertical reframing).

What you will actually build

  • A YouTube channel with clear positioning and a polished identity
  • 3 long-form videos, scripted, filmed and edited
  • 6 Shorts or Reels drawn from your long-form videos
  • Thumbnails and visuals created with AI, Canva and Photoshop
  • A realistic publishing calendar and optimised YouTube listings

You will also explore AI voices and avatars and their ethical limits, the basics of monetisation without false hopes, and the essential rules of copyright: music, images, image rights and AI-generated content.
