Workshop/ Telling Stories With Sound: The art of audio narrative at HOME Manchester, Manchester 19 January 2020 Tickets from £10.50 — Book now

Explore the possibilities of using sound when telling stories, with this workshop at HOME.

Audio productions can be a very powerful way to tell a story; from taut drama to experimental documentaries, they are a great way for writers to flex their creative muscles and to immerse audiences in powerful sonic experiences. But to be at its best, you need to write with sound in mind.

If you have a great story to tell and think it could work effectively as an audio piece, join the award-winning producers and sound designers from Naked Productions to explore what you need to take into consideration when developing an audio piece. From plotting and story structure with sound in mind, to creating immersive sonic worlds, this workshop will set you on the right path when telling stories that go beyond words.
