If you want to reach a younger, non-scientific audience, you can't get around videos these days. Participants learn how to create their own science video, from the idea to the final edit.

The workshop is divided into two days:

Day 1 covers the basics:

• Storytelling: how to turn your scientific topic into a journalistic story

• Screenwriting and Storyboarding

• Participants are giving the opportunity to film their own videos during the two weeks between the first part and the second part.

• Visit of ETH’s film studio

On Day 2, participants practice what they have learned:
