In the audio world, we talk a lot about sounding natural. But you can’t sound natural unless you know who you are and how to write a script in your own voice. In this two part workshop, Senior Reporter and broadcaster Marielle Segarra will help you figure out what parts of yourself you want to share with an audience — and how you can bring those qualities into your writing and delivery. This will be an interactive class and you’ll get a chance to practice what you’ve learned. You’ll have a writing assignment for homework and during the second session you’ll receive feedback from the group.
