Video Presenting Rise & Shine Breakfast Recap!

Rostie VPX group photo - June 15 2016

This morning we had the amazing opportunity to engage with thought leaders and begin to understand how Video is the way of the future for business and development!

In just under an hour, Kunle Bristow inspired everyone in the Rainy Lake room to get out of their seats and get into action. Video action that is! We learned how to create ‘the hook’ and then separated into groups to meet new people and come up with our own video intro. Oh yeah, we began the workshop by staring into each others eyes to get comfortable and realise what video is all about – connecting with people.

Thank you Kunle for coming to The Rostie Group, and thank you to everyone who attended and had an amazing start to their day!

Keep in touch for more free events like this at The Rostie Group!

“It’s not about public speaking and it’s not media training…it’s about getting ready for the brave new world of pervasive video”

This micro-workshop is conducted by Kunle Bristow, a film director with nearly 20 years of experience in drawing out the best performances from executives and video presenters. Kunle appears regularly on national television, HuffPostLive and other video media.
