THE SOUND STORYTELLING WORKSHOP

This workshop is aimed to people interested in any artistic, visual and sound activity – photographers, video artists, cinematographers, painters, musicians – who wish to start or deepen the audiovisual language, focusing mainly on design, editing and post-production of sound for multimedia & transmedia projects.

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES

In order to help the professional or visual artist in the tasks of planning and development of the necessary tasks to include in the best possible way the sound elements of his audiovisual work, this intensive workshop is presented from a practical point of view.

2 – PRODUCTION AND ACQUISITION: Introduction to audio equipment. Gear recommendations. Professional audio recording techniques in the field (indoor and outdoor)

3 – EDITING AND AUDIOVISUAL RHYTHM: We’ll discover the rhythm and tempo of each artistic expression in order to build a “Sound Landscape” that perfectly converges with the final editing.
