About this course

Podcast is the foundation of a form of communication that is related to literature and theater, for it speaks both to our feelings and our senses. This course gives insight into rhetoric, soundscaping, interview techniques and psychology, reportage, and the role of human senses in communication strategies and practices. The theoretical curriculum runs parallel with hands-on production, voice training, speech practice, recording, and editing. Ultimately, you learn how to plan and produce your own audio pieces to be podcast with support from DIS.
