Stories in sound
Telling a compelling story and creating a vivid world with sound – key components of good radio drama. The course will be practically based, giving participants the opportunity to explore a variety of styles of radio drama and have a go at script editing, whilst developing their own skills in writing for this specific dramatic medium. The course will involve group and individual exercises and there will be some recording of material at the end of the week.
