Feet in 2 Worlds is hosting a two-part Fundamentals of Interviewing audio workshop on Friday, September 26 and Monday, September 29, 2025.
The workshop will be held on Zoom and is designed to help participants strengthen fundamental audio interviewing skills. We’ll cover technical skills — like mic placement and monitoring sound — as well as interview techniques that lead to strong, usable tape. The workshop will also put a high emphasis on listening skills, and provide ample listening practice.
Participants will practice by recording an interview over the weekend, then regroup on Monday to share and receive feedback on the Monday session.
The workshop will focus on introductory fundamentals, but interested participants of all skill levels are welcome.
Time and Date:
Part One:
Friday, September 26, 2025
1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern
Part Two:
Monday, September 29, 2025
1 p.m. to 3 p.m Eastern
Participants are asked to attend both sessions. Participants will also use the weekend in between to record one short interview.
Pricing:
The cost to participate is $50. A limited number of scholarships are available for those who need financial support.
Requirements:
Participants will need to have their own audio recording equipment, including a recording device (such as a Zoom, Tascam, or Marantz recorder), hand-held microphone, and headphones.
Participants will also be required to participate in a Zoom meeting, listen to audio, and share their recording files, so a computer in a quiet space with internet is highly recommended for the workshop.
Apply:
Applications are now closed. The deadline was Monday, September 15 at 11:59pm Eastern.
The workshop will be capped at 10 participants.
Your acceptance to this workshop is pending receiving a confirmation email from Feet in 2 Worlds.
