Audio Shortdocs

Posted in audio by S_Delagrange on October 16th, 2007

Got an e-mail from a friend today about “short audio.” Seems WBEZ in Chicago sponsors an audio storytelling contest called Third Coast International Audio Festival. In 2006, the topic was “99 Ways to Tell a Radio Story” and this year it was “Dollar Storeys,” in which each story began with a purchase at a Dollar Store. Listen to some of these, and start thinking about ways to turn your OpEd audio piece into a work of “creative non-fiction” with more or different audio, sound effects, music….and images and/or video.

(Just a hint of things to come with our final project…)
