Podcasting and Video Stories Virtual Intensive
October 21 - November 11, 2020
No matter the trendiest social platform, the ability to craft and communicate a cohesive digital narrative – about yourself, a company, a passion project – is a skill that employers increasingly seek when hiring recent college graduates. Emerging technologies, coupled with digital media creation and management skills, are leading to new professions and driving social justice movements and public awareness. Through video and audio production and dissemination, people are making a living by telling their own story and the stories of others.
You already may know how to use a digital storytelling tool, but have you learned how to craft your narrative and share it with an audience? This workshop will give you the skills and critical perspectives to create digital narratives, building your Digital Communication competencies. You will also have an opportunity to meet alumnae/i and other professionals and learn how these competencies relate to their work across a range of professional fields.
The Podcasting and Video Stories Intensive is a four-week workshop. In our first two weeks we will focus on understanding digital narratives and producing a podcast using Audacity, and in weeks 3 and 4 we will continue to hone our storytelling skills and learn videomaking with WeVideo. Our final meeting will include a panel discussion by alumnae/I who work in social and broadcast media, as well as a showcase of digital narratives created by the workshop participants. -
