About this experience
At this storytelling workshop in Berlin, a moment of your life becomes a short story in your own voice. You come with the story and leave with 90 seconds that sound like you.
Together in a group, we are looking for that one moment that only you can tell. I'll show you how to tell it for your ear instead of reading it aloud. You'll get feedback on where your story sits, no matter how big or small your moment is. Then you record them calmly on a real microphone. In the end, you cut them on your mobile phone into a finished piece that sounds like you.
It's not a technical course. You don't need any previous knowledge or equipment, just a moment that won't let you go completely. Nice as a gift too. A storytelling and podcast afternoon in a small studio in Berlin-Moabit. Eight people maximum.
