Learning outcomes of the course unit

A radio documentary course for master's students

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with radio-acoustic forms with an emphasis on radio-documentaries, cultivate a sense of listening and initiate the creation of one's own sound documentary. The cours will provide meetings with radio-documentary artists, discussions and analyses of sound pieces and dramaturgical guidance in the creation of one's audio-documentary.

Mode of study

The course takes place once every 14 days for 4 hours. The course will begin with listening to selected sound pieces and subsequent discussion with a guest. A short sound walk will be completed at each class which one of the students will execute. The second part of the course will be devoted to preparation and implementation of one's own audio-documentary.

Prerequisites and co-requisites

Open ears.

All participants prepare a 15 min. sound walk for the others.
