Learn to create great stories through photo and video!

Photo & Video at Danvik is for people who both love to create and share.
We capture moments and show them off in many different ways - we use a wide variety of mediums, and we have real fun while creating!

This class is for those who would like to become a photojournalist, video maker, content creator, or just want to try your hand at the world of photos and film!
You will not only learn how to take beautiful photos, but also how to create good content using photos and videos as tools.
In this class, you will learn a lot about visual storytelling.

We work with still images, video narratives, animations and graphics. We publish material online and on social media such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube. We experiment with scrollytelling and new presentation methods. You can create content for your own channels and we often take on real assignments from various organizations as well. Throughout the year, we work with everything from portrait photography in the studio, photo reportage, documentary, reels and short videos.

At Danvik, we have a great photo studio, video studio and editing facilities. With us, you get the entire Adobe package of creative software and you will receive thorough training in Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects and Premiere Pro.

Join us in creating magic!

Danvik Folkehøgskole is an excellent example of how the Nordic folkehøgskole tradition helps young people get ready for the future.

In addition to promoting important life skills and Christian values, our Norwegian boarding school has built a solid reputation by giving students a foot inside the door of an increasingly competitive media industry.

The education at Danvik is divided between programme subjects, common subjects, elective subjects, workshops and practice.
Students will spend roughly half the year producing bigger projects like short movies, shows and documentaries for TV and radio, video games, plays, anthologies or photo exhibitions, all depending on which of the seven programmes they have chosen.

In the common subjects, they will encounter interdisciplinary themes like media ethics, history and advertising. As a bonus, students get the chance to learn from the best in the business on trips to Hollywood, Paris and Berlin. We also cooperate with a school in India.
