Learn how to be natural, engaging and confident when presenting to camera
This is a half-day on-camera presenter masterclass will develop your presenting skills and help you confidently front videos on websites, social media and corporate videos.
What you'll learn
How do you record pieces to camera with the confidence of an experienced TV reporter? How do you hold the attention of your audience and project relatability and likeability? This on-camera presenting masterclass teaches the skills you need to manage your nerves, project your voice and interact directly with the camera as though you're speaking to a person.
The on-camera presenting training combines techniques from media training and public speaking training, as well as mindfulness and acting tips to help you develop more confidence and record engaging video for your website, social channels and events.
How you'll learn
The presenter masterclass is led by a broadcast journalist with decades of experience as a news anchor, presenter, host and MC. Over four hours, they'll share their expertise and demonstrate the essential skills needed to interact with the camera with poise and confidence.
Once the theory is covered, you'll present pre-prepared scripts to camera, followed by trainer critique. You'll work as a group but each delegate also benefits from some individual coaching by the trainer. After training, you'll receive a link from which to download your recordings.

What our students say
The lifelike interview settings and tasks that PA Media Training deal in replicate perfectly the real-world feel of a tough media interview and help the delegates come out of the day feeling much more confident that they can play an active role in representing their organisation.
The team is flexible, slick, well-resourced and overall simply first class. Their expertise and knowledge have been invaluable. I was delighted with our choice, so I’d have no hesitation in recommending them
What a great session we had on Communicating with Impact. Bridgid shared practical techniques to enhance and develop our communications skills so we can present and speak publicly or to senior stakeholders with confidence and impact. I speak for my whole team in highly recommending Bridgid Nzekwu if you are after effective and fun communication training.
The training scenarios are as real to life as you could possibly get. They took considerable time to research our current plans and issues and used these to design a series of true to life radio and TV interviews. The team is outstanding, and their expertise and knowledge has been invaluable. Book them – you’ll be glad you did.
PA Media Training were efficient, well organised and genuinely lovely people to deal with and, importantly for us, able to provide flexibility around our needs to create the bespoke training we required. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them for further training or to recommend them to other organisations.
I honestly thought that the whole day was fabulous!!! You really couldn’t have done anymore for us. The combination of practical exercises and feedback was particularly useful, it was a challenging day (in a very good way) in that we really had to think, learn and adapt quickly. I know the team are significantly better prepared for media interviews after this training.
The small class sizes nurture a comfortable environment where everyone supports and learns from each other. The staff helped me hone in on my writing skills and develop the confidence to feel comfortable on camera.
