Past Event: Telling your Story with Sound

Past Event: Telling your Story with Sound

February 7, 2017 at 7:00 pm

Location: Sennheiser pop-up store, 134 Prince Street, NYC

Moderated by: Jim Anderson

A podcast can be more than a monologue or an interview; it can be a rich environment for using sound to tell your story. One can use sound in many ways, whether it’s to set the scene, illustrate a concept, or enliven a journalistic endeavor. The talk will take the audience on an international aural journey from the 'hollars’ of Kentucky to the streets of Grenada in search of sounds. With Jim Anderson’s deep background in broadcasting, he will demonstrate the power of sound to illustrate and enrich a podcast.
