MediaStyle is on the road in Toronto next week to present a media skills training workshop at MaRS.

It will be a hybrid class, teaching participants how to use both traditional earned media tactics and how to use new media to tell stories that matter to people.

I’m presenting this session with Jaime Woo, a creative consultant in Toronto specializing in social media. I can’t think of any one better to help guide people through the amazing ways you can use video, blend text with audio, and present it in intuitive and meaningful ways online. Jaime is fresh off leading a core conversation at SXSWi and is fluent in all video gaming systems–expect an energetic talk.

Our half-day (evening 6pm-10pm) Media Skill Training teaches:

• Major media terminology so you can speak the media’s language
• Tactics for incorporating earned-media into daily business routines
• Interview skills including techniques and templates for creating your media message
• Prep skills for media interviews in TV, print, radio, online, or social media
• Online communications and how to work with your collaborators online and through social media
• Content creation for sites like Facebook, Twitter, Odeo, and YouTube to supplement your strategy and messaging

Tickets can be purchased here.
