About the event

Stop Creating Content Nobody Trusts.

Start Making Video That Actually Works.

 

Here's the uncomfortable truth about 2026: the internet is drowning in AI-generated slop.

 

Your audience knows it. They can smell a templated, soulless post from a mile away. And they're scrolling right past it.

 

62% of consumers are now less likely to trust content they suspect is AI-generated. 

Meanwhile, the businesses that are winning, the ones getting found, getting trusted, and getting chosen, are doing something radically different. They're using authentic, human-led video to build the kind of authority that no algorithm can fake.

 

The problem? Most business owners know they should be creating video. They just don't know how to make it look credible, feel authentic, and actually convert without spending a fortune or becoming a full-time content creator.

 

That's exactly what this workshop fixes.


What Is This Workshop?

 

This is a hands-on "Content Lab" not a lecture. You won't just listen to theory and leave with a head full of ideas you never act on. You'll get your phone out, plan real content, learn professional editing tools, and walk out with a ready-to-execute video blueprint for your business.

 

Whether you've never posted a video or you've been creating content that gets crickets, this workshop meets you where you are and gives you a system that works.

 

Led by Steven Fee, digital strategist, full stack digital marketer and videographer at SME Centre of Excellence, this session is built around one core belief: you don't need to go viral, you just need to be visible, credible, and trusted by the right people.



What You'll Walk Away With

 

  • A proven framework for creating scroll-stopping video hooks in under 3 seconds

  • The neuroscience-backed technique that keeps viewers watching past the point where most people drop off (there's a specific dopamine trigger behind it and we'll show you exactly how to use it)

  • Hands-on experience with professional editing software you can use on your phone or desktop for free

  • A complete 60-second video storyboard, mapped out and ready to film the moment you leave

  • A framework for generating 9+ video content ideas in under 10 minutes, so you never stare at a blank screen again

  • The confidence to press record, knowing your video will look authentic, feel authoritative, and actually move people to act

 

The businesses that show their proof will win. The ones still hiding behind stock images and ChatGPT captions will disappear.
