From Classroom to Community: Inside VOLO’s Student AI Program

In partnership with IVE Sha Tin, VOLO INNOVATION launched a specialised AI training initiative in June to equip vocational students with modern digital media capabilities. Designed as a focused 3-hour module, the program was split into two 1.5-hour sessions serving two groups of 30 students. Conducted entirely by Volo Innovation Instructor Tao Ayrton and Jacky Chung, the workshops introduced students to practical generative AI tools to help them produce high-quality videos for their end-of-year projects.

During these hands-on student sessions, the focus was centered on a meaningful community initiative: creating video campaigns for a walking club for elderly Hong Kong residents. Jacky guided the students through leveraging AI software for text-to-script generation, visual asset creation, and video synthesis. This streamlined approach allowed the students to rapidly transform project concepts into polished, professional video deliverables for their community care assignments, demonstrating the real-world value of AI in social impact projects.
