Consent and sharing choices
Creating a project is different from sharing a project.
Create privately

Review before sharing
Projects should be reviewed before any sharing. Learners can request changes or decide later.
Sharing levels
Sharing may include tutor/group sharing, showcase review, or online sharing only where consent and review are complete.
Keep private
Keeping a project private is a valid completion pathway.
Public sharing is optional. Online sharing and showcase review require clear consent and review.
Support and tutoring options
Support may be offered for learners who want help with story ideas, storyboards, media planning, captions, transcripts, review or sharing choices.
Story support
Ask for help with a story idea, story choice or how to take part.
Planning support
Request support with storyboarding, media planning, captions or transcripts.
Review support
Talk through review and sharing choices before deciding what happens next.
Status: Tutoring and app-based support options depend on staffing, funding, scheduling and platform availability.
Mini Certificate and badge
The pathway may recognise completion through a Mini Certificate in Video Storytelling and Youth Voice or a Video Voices Story Builder badge.
This recognition would acknowledge participation, learning progress and project development. It would not be a formal vocational accreditation.
