Whether you are trying to tell the story of a community or as a community, successful collaboration is essential to making audio with impact.

Join us for a day of conversation and collaboration in this two part event that explores collaborative audio making. You’ll gain insight to the ethical questions, methods, and successful examples of this layered process.

PRESENTATION | 12:00 P.M. – 1:30 P.M.

Producers Jess Shane (Constellations, Personal Best) and Aliya Pabani ( The Imposter) will present how audio storytelling can borrow methods from community arts and works in film and theatre that have collaborative processes at their core in order to create stories that engage multiple “subjective” points of view, and hold space for the possibility of self-representation. The talk will touch on audio/podcasting projects and focusing on works from outside journalistic and reported audio to explore how the structure of audio works can be more heavily influenced by the collaborative processes that underpin it and discussing unique strategies that could be helpful to audio producers.

RSVP HERE

WORKSHOP | 2:30 – 5:30 P.M.
