The Canadian Sound and Story Workshop held its first beginners’ class last week. I co-hosted the session with JP Davidson.

Getting Started: Telling Stories in Sound walked through the whole process of making a radio documentary. From story planning to recording and mixing.

We played clips from This American Life, Radiolab, Jay Allison, and more.

It was lots of fun and it was great to meet a new batch of storytellers. I look forward to hearing what they come up with!
