Voices from the Valley is a free weekly workshop open to Mon Valley teenagers on how to develop audio and interviewing skills to make your own podcast. Students will learn to interview members in their community in order to tell untold and underreported stories. Students will learn how to use audio apps like Audacity and create a narrative with recorded interviews, scripts, music and world-building sounds.
The five week workshop will be held on Thursday afternoons beginning January 28 from 3:30 - 5:30 p.m.
Free of charge, but please register on Eventbrite in advance.
The workshop will be led by local journalist and author Brittany Hailer.
Sponsored by the McKeesport Community Newsroom in partnership with Write Pittsburgh and the Boys & Girls Club of Western Pennsylvania Career Works.
