01 - COURSE OUTLINE
What the course covers
Most creative training covers one discipline — storytelling, or branding, or video — and stops there. This course was built to close the gap between those separate sessions: a single syllabus, taught in a single day, that moves through strategy, to story and distribution as a connected process. It’s the way a small creative agency would run a campaign from brief to delivery.
Each module is taught through the lens of a specific role so you leave with a working understanding of how each function actually thinks, not just a summary of what they do.

What’s different about our Masterclasses?
Most Workshops are either built around theory or untested practices. Our approach is tool based learning designed to give you practical knowledge you can immediately use in the real world. Ways to approach briefs, build campaigns and find fast solutions to content development. Our trainers have also been doing it for a while at quite a high level.
D&AD Approved · Brazil to BAFTA
Six years of D&AD approved masterclasses. International keynote speaking from São Paulo to BAFTA — methods, tested in different rooms, working every time.
Means each Masterclass has been developed over time according to the creative and media industries needs.
Masterclasses are hands on
Although you’ll be learning in a group it doesn’t mean you can’t get involved. Each Masterclass uses hands on examples to build a solution.
Those solutions, the solutions you develop, will help you build future work based on a coherent structure.
Beat the algorithms know the algorithms
You have to be in it to win it but you also have to know nobody knows nothing so what’s the solution?
The answer is you have to know what’s out there to ignore it or find an alternative. What doesn’t change is the way human being navigate the matrix of advertising alternatives. Every Masterclass harnesses that power.
Our sessions work wonders
Check out the feedback or visit and D&AD event and you’ll hear people talking about Masterclasses and the way they helped their creativity, brand or business.
