Ken Heyman Story 1

I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Maine for an Audio Storytelling workshop. It was strange packing for a trip without a camera— I had to learn how to see with sound. Day 2, I found myself on a Lobster boat with Richie Carlsen, microphone in hand, covered in a dead cat (that’s radio jargon for a furry wind screen) gathering ambient sounds and interviews. Day 3, I wrote a script, Day 4, I recorded my narration, and Day 5, I learned how to use Protools and started mixing my story.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, this was a challenge for my visual mind, but I’m really excited about the new storytelling platforms opening up.
