This hands-on workshop will function as part creative incubator, script-writing roundtable and technical workshop. Moving from her own practice of creative writing and first-person voice-over monologues that are paired with various found or personally-shot video footage, this workshop will introduce traditional voice-over recording techniques as well as alternative tactics for incorporating voice into independent artist projects. Attendees will then work in small groups to develop a narrative and record it using their chosen method (or using various techniques). The groups’ finalized, edited recording will then be paired with found footage and compiled to create a collaged, exquisite voice-over, video corpse. Ultimately, this workshop will focus on how independent artists can use creative writing and various forms of recording in their own projects.
