Video Poetry
Create moving words
Poetry is breaking free from the page and exploding on screens—short video poems are thriving on platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and beyond. This workshop is for anyone with a creative spark: poets, storytellers, filmmakers, and those curious about turning inner ideas into something evocative and alive. You’ll discover how to craft compelling text, weave it with striking, beautifully simple imagery and atmospheric sound, and create distinctive short pieces using nothing more than your phone.
If you want to use your own voice, you’ll get gentle, supportive guidance to help you find a tone and rhythm that enhance the poem’s mood, imagery, and sonic world—without any need for formal performance skills.
NATIONAL CENTRE FOR VIDEO POETRY
I founded the National Centre for Video Poetry, launching in July 2026 at The Write Place in Somerset. The Centre supports video poetry as an emerging art form through workshops, online platforms (YouTube, www.ncvp.org.uk), and partnerships with cultural institutions. Contact for workshop details.
