About This Course

Creating travel content for socials is more than just documenting where you've been. It's about capturing the atmosphere, emotion, and sharing  stories that make a place unforgettable.

 

In this course, Nikko Pascua of @otherthanfood shares his complete workflow for creating impactful travel "postcards" through both photos and videos. From choosing the right gear and mastering camera settings to composing stronger frames and building visual narratives across multiple images, you'll learn how to see beyond the obvious and create content with purpose.

 

Through practical location shoots, you'll discover how to work with light, anticipate meaningful moments, and capture the coverage needed to tell richer stories. The course also explores editing and colour grading techniques, title design, and strategies for curating a body of work that reflects your unique perspective as a creator.

 

Whether you're documenting a weekend getaway or an overseas adventure, this course will equip you with the creative and technical foundations to create travel content that stands out, connects with audiences, and inspires future journeys.
