We’ve scheduled the first free facilitator/producer training for this project on Saturday, February 28, 2009 from 11 AM to 3 PM at Morrisson-Reeves Library in Richmond. Come learn what you need to know to help us answer the question, “What Is Your Story?” At this training, you’ll learn how to facilitate and conduct interviews with friends, family members, coworkers and others, edit those interviews into a final audio segment, and share your edited interview with the world.
Training topics will include:
- Why oral history matters in our community
- Interview practices and tips
- Audio recording and editing tools and tips
- How to begin contributing your work to the project
We hope you’ll join us for this free training! To RSVP, or if you have any questions, you can send e-mail to info@whatisyourstory.org, or contact us other ways.
