ENGWRT 1770 - STUDIO IN AUDIO FICTION

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Audio fiction has undergone a kind of renaissance, reimagining the possibilities and forms of classic radio drama for contemporary podcast audiences. In this advanced production course, we will take up this growing genre as a platform for experimentation. Drawing inspiration from focused listening assignments and from creative exchange with your peers you will work in a collaborative studio setting to produce an original, sound-rich work of audio fiction, aiming to come away with a polished, broadcast-worthy story by the end of the semester. This is a workshop-intensive course. You will be asked to provide detailed feedback on your peers, work and to offer up your own work-in-progress for critique at regular intervals, using this feedback to inform your story's development at every stage. Class discussions and activities include techniques for story structure, character development, dialogue, and directing, as well as hands-on instruction in mixing and sound design. This course assumes prior experience in narrative audio production and/or a self-directed approach to the technical elements of audio recording and editing. Your active contributions to the collaborative working environment of this class are key to its success.
