Overview of class

This course brings together faculty from the Departments of Theatre and Radio, Television and Film to share their combined perspectives on storytelling and sound design. We will explore the connective tissue between these art forms, experiencing each as an "art of noticing" and approaching them through an attentiveness to the sounds and stories that surround us. Participation in the class will combine elements of design, creativity and performance, as we build a community with our stories and sounds among individuals from across the School of Communication.
