Smartphone filming · Helen Hyde

You already own a professional video camera. Learn to use it.

Hyde Media started as a media company with an iPhone, a tripod and a microphone, and Helen's years as a BBC camera operator. The course and the sessions below teach small businesses to do the same: film well on the phone they already have, and get their business seen.

Ask about a workshop

I needed to upskill quickly for an upcoming video project and I got in touch with Helen for some help. She taught me an incredible amount in our first Zoom call, from planning the shoot and thinking about the storytelling to the technical set-up, the equipment I needed and editing. She went above and beyond in every way.Jen Allen, Jen Allen Photography
