This workshop is open to all Swinburne students and staff and will introduce you to story-telling with video using Adobe Rush. You’ll learn the basics of capturing material on your phone, importing into Rush, and basic story-telling and editing to create a seamless video.

Inspired by the success of Swinburne’s first STEM-themed public speaking competition, Start Talking, this workshop is all about matching Adobe tools with impactful communication in a digital (and COVID) world!

While this Adobe Rush workshop will focus on science communication, its content can be used across any communication topic! So, whether you're creating a video presentation for the Start Talking 2020 science competition or communicating to a wider audience, this workshop is for you.

Facilitated by Adobe experts Jason Grant and Chris Hansen, this workshop is a partnership between FSET’s Student Engagement team, the Communication for Scientists teaching team and Swinburne’s Digital Literacies hub.
