Pierre Kattar
Let’s Dance – Finding the Right Voice / Approach for your stories The most important aspect of story telling for me is finding the right voice or approach. What needs to be said / shown? How should it be presented? What's the angle? What rhythm should the piece have? Is narration needed or should the character(s) speak for themselves? Through numerous examples, we’ll explore how the process of finding the right voice / approach can become part of your story’s evolution.
Location – a computer near you (all you need is internet access) Date Saturday, September 19th.
Time 10:30 a.m. EST – approximately 4:30 p.m. EST Sessions will run an hour, followed by a half hour online “chat” with the speaker.
Sessions will be taped and available online to all who register.
If you can’t commit to the entire day, don't despair -- presentations will be recorded and as a benefit of registration you'll have free online access to all sessions at your convenience.
Each session will be an hour long and will take you “behind the curtain,” with practical discussion of the skills and techniques used by each presenter in creating their award winning work. During and between sessions, participants will be able to question speakers through online text.
The event will be hosted at The Poynter Institute in front of a live audience. In these tough economic times, prices have been kept low to make the workshop accessible:
$45.00 NPPA member
