VGIK together with Getblogger and media holding ON Media (which manages the KION online cinema and Ticketland) launched a professional development course on content creation using artificial intelligence and influencer marketing. The program prepares content creators to work at the intersection of traditional media, digital platforms, and AI technologies — top graduates will be able to present their projects to the media holding's platforms and join the team at Getblogger.
What's included in the influencer marketing course
The course covers the complete workflow of a blogger and content creator: from the structure of the blogosphere to legal aspects of working with brands. Students study the main platforms for content distribution, monetization models, career paths in the industry, and principles of working with advertising integrations.
The practical block of the program focuses on influencer marketing: blog monetization, interaction with advertisers, ad labeling, copyright, and reputation risk management. Participants work with real case studies and brand briefs, gaining access to the expertise of ON Media.
AI tools for content production
A separate block of the program is dedicated to working with artificial intelligence at all stages of content creation. Students master AI tools for ideation and scriptwriting, production and post-production, analytics and promotion across various platforms.
«Today it's no longer enough to simply learn neural networks. To create truly in-demand content, you need to understand the basics of the profession, the principles of the media market, and audience expectations,» says Getblogger CEO Marina Kondrashova.
The program combines VGIK's academic knowledge with industry expertise. Faculty from the film institute and Getblogger specialists participate in the implementation — representatives from influencer marketing, analytics, legal support, and blogger relations.
Practical value for brands and agencies
Structured educational programs in influencer marketing improve the quality of interaction between brands and content creators. Bloggers who understand advertiser requirements, ad labeling standards, and KPI metrics become more reliable integration partners.

Top graduates have the opportunity to join projects on the Getblogger platform and apply their knowledge in practice — this includes working with real brands and participating in advertising campaigns.
