Content Creation and Video Editing Training – Mission Locale of Saint-Laurent du Maroni 📱🎤

Mission Locale de l'Ouest Guyanais

A two-month training was organized at the Mission Locale of Saint-Laurent du Maroni to introduce young people to digital content creation and social media communication.
The goal was to familiarize them with communication professions by teaching them how to edit short videos with CapCut: integrating transitions, music, rhythm, and subtitles, and to create attractive thumbnails with Figma tailored to Instagram and TikTok formats.
Participants alternated between theory and practice by producing content themselves for the Mission Locale’s social media and delivering a final presentation of their work.
