Audio Tour Narration: The Last Stop Week 4

Directors: Peter Dunne

Length: 14-hour four-week workshop

Class Notes: None

An innovative approach has taken hold (and getting more popular by the day) in the audio and multi-media tour industry. While many museums and famous sites still adhere to the narrator/curator driven “guided-looking” method to audio tours, others are looking elsewhere for more immersive and evocative approaches to interpreting art. In this workshop, Peter will explore some of the approaches being developed and expand the conversation into what these might sound like. You’ll play with ways to convey the language from these new scripts, which are often informal and suggestive of audience discovery rather than a definitive narrator feel. This workshop will also serve as a refresher for the many audio tours that still seek to offer an informed perspective because well-delivered information never goes out of style!
