About this Event
Led by professional actor, marketer & founder - Francesca Baccarella
Camera Confidence for Founders is a premium, in-person workshop designed to help founders and small business owners feel confident, natural, and credible on camera.
Showing up as the face of your business builds trust, strengthens connection, and drives better results online, but many founders avoid video because they feel awkward, unsure how to come across, or worried about “getting it wrong”.
This workshop focuses on the techniques behind confident on-camera presence, from clarity and delivery to energy, structure, and intention. This means your videos will feel more engaging, authentic, and purposeful.
By the end of the day, you’ll feel more at ease speaking on camera and leave with practical tools you can use immediately to create video content that builds trust, holds attention, and supports your business goals.
Alongside practical learning and guided exercises, there’s plenty of time to connect with other founders, share experiences, and build a supportive network in a setting that encourages openness and ease.
When: Tuesday 18th February
Time: 9:30am–4pm
Where: Thames Lido, Reading
What to expect:
