Claudine Leonard Design
Digital Marketer Claudine Leonard was a member of the Video Marketing for Business blended online course we ran over 4 weeks with the Laois Partnership in May 2021.
I think the result was terrific!
Our Video Marketing for Business course is a bespoke 4-week course in which small businesses learn the essentials of video making to market their businesses – by the end, they have a range of videos made, from video interviews, promo videos and FAQ videos. We were commissioned by the Laois Partnership in association with Laois County Council to run this course.
A Tour of the Children’s Garden at the National Botanic Gardens
We taught a group from the Office of Public works in early 2021. One of the videos that was produced was this lovely virtual tour of the Children’s Education Garden in the National Botanic Gardens from Melissa O’Biren. Melissa’s use of multiple, dynamic shots make for a very engaging video.
Irish Network Against Racism
In this very concise video, Aga from the Irish Network Against Racism talks about their recent “Responding to Racism Guide”. She makes excellent use of transitions and animations to help give us an overview of the guide and clearly communicates where we can find it.
Exploring Figure Drawing with Rebecca Deegan
Rebecca Deegan is a Visual Artist based in county Laois. She joined us on one of our group courses to learn how to better use video to promote her art and her art courses. In this video Rebecca is advertising her “Exploring Figure Drawing” course that she runs online. She uses text to great effect to help convey her message and highlight the important points in her video.
Vagabond Tours
“Our goal for the session was to energise our team ahead of the coming season and inspire them to try new techniques in shooting video. This was put to a stern test within weeks. After Covid-19 struck, we turned to our tour guides to create content for our social channels.
The results have been fantastic. Themed around Ireland both pre- and post-lockdown, the videos have strengthened communication with our audience across all of our social channels. One of the most satisfying aspects has been the amazing contributions of certain team members who wouldn’t have previously been confident shooting video before your training session.”
– Derry Nairn, Vagabond Tours Digital Marketing Executive
Event Announcement from the NRF
Events & Marketing Coordinator for the National Recruitment Federation, Anna Douglas, made this excellent video with the CEO, Geraldine King. Using video to promote their upcoming conference was a great way to inform people of what’s happening while creating a buzz around the event.
Putting Lucan on the Tourist Map
Search & Recovery: The Challenging Role of the Navy Diver
Lorna Siggins is a print and radio reporter who did our podcasting course recently. Obviously not being a stranger to audio recording and production, the course helped Lorna refine her radio skills to create online podcasting content.
Here she is for Afloat.ie with a podcast recorded in challenging conditions.

Humanist celebrant and former student for the Catholic priesthood, Joe Armstrong has put his podcasting skills to work, creating an engaging and thought provoking podcast about questioning the powers that be and thinking for yourself.
