“I had never even tried videomaking until I began the training. I was taught what type of videos are most likely to make an impact and was practically shown how to create them. Technology and I usually go in different directions, but Veronica built my confidence and my belief so that I could do it, supporting me step by step.” – Dr Abdoulie Sanneh, Founder, IKAN (Active Kids, Active Neighbourhoods)
We equip everyone from teenagers to pensioners, tech-savvy to self-professed technophobes, with digital media and journalism skills to tell their own stories. Our Mobile Storytelling workshops teach people how to create, film and edit impactful videos using a smartphone.
Thanks to our training, more and more individuals and communities are now using digital media and made-by-mobile video to shine a spotlight on their lives, projects and neighbourhoods.
We feature some of the videos, made during our training sessions, on our YouTube channel. Real stories by real people. Watch some below to see how Mobile Storytelling can help people to showcase their talent, showcase their organisation, showcase their business, and showcase themselves.

Mobile Storytelling to Showcase Social Impact
“After I created and published videos about my projects, people from across the city got in touch to ask how we could work together as they have seen the amazing things we are doing. It feels like I am having new conversations every day with potential collaborators as a result of the videos and some of the videos have more than 2000 views! It has been incredible.” – Dr Abdoulie Sanneh [Read more in What Our Clients Say]
