Data Transmission & The Artist Blueprint presents: CREATOR

A Weekend of Hands-On Content Creation at Noise Studio

Following the success of our first DT Retreat, we’re buzzing to announce the next edition, taking place this September.

Designed for anyone looking to seriously level up their content game, DT Retreats brings together a small group of just seven students for an intimate weekend of learning, creating and collaborating.

Across the retreat, you’ll learn how to plan, film and edit content that works across today’s social platforms, all within a focused, supportive environment built to help you gain confidence, sharpen your skills and leave with content you’re proud of.

NEXT RETREAT TAKES PLACE SEPTEMBER 25th – 27th

The course takes place at the stunning Noise Studio in Calverton. It is an immaculate setting with state of the art recording studios, live rooms and creative spaces that give you everything you need to learn and create. Across the weekend you will develop practical skills that you can use straight away, guided by a team of experienced creators and film crew.

Level Up

Grahame Farmer will lead the programme. He will take you through the full journey of social media content, from shaping your ideas to producing video that feels professional. You will work with both mobile devices and high level recording setups, learning how to shoot short form video, capture clean audio and bring your ideas to life in a way that fits your brand.

With only eight places per session, DT Retreats is designed to give you time, attention and hands-on support. It is built for artists, DJs, producers and anyone who wants to create better content with confidence.

If you are ready to develop your skills in one of the most inspiring studios in the UK, this is your chance to learn directly from industry professionals and walk away with the tools you need to stand out online.

Luxurious Comfort

We have various rooming options available from king size single occupancy to an oversized bunk bed option all with premium hotel comfort during your stay

What’s Included?

We’ve built DT Retreats to be as smooth and stress free as possible, so everything you need for the weekend is taken care of. All students receive breakfast, lunch and dinner each day, along with plenty of snacks and drinks to keep you going while you create. Whether you’re filming, editing or planning your next idea, you won’t need to step away from the session to sort food or refreshments.

Transfers are provided from the local rail station, making it easy for anyone travelling in by train. If you prefer to drive, there is on site parking available at Noise Studio. Simply arrive, settle in and focus on learning. Every detail is looked after, giving you the space to concentrate on your content and make the most of your time on the retreat.
