You’ve been consuming stories your entire life, but you’ve only been experiencing half of them. While your eyes catch the action, your ears are missing a whole world of storytelling magic happening right beneath the surface.In this hands-on class, you’ll develop what I call your “sixth sense” for storytelling – the ability to hear stories as powerfully as you see them. Whether you’re a content creator, filmmaker, writer, or just someone who loves great stories, this course will transform how you experience and create narrative content forever.
What You’ll Learn:
- The EV (Emotional Value) system for balancing visual and audio storytelling
- How to identify and use diegetic, non-diegetic, and trans-diegetic sound like a pro
- The difference between practical and impractical sound design (and when to use each)
- “Sounditecture” – my framework for building complete audio environments
- How to subvert audience expectations using strategic sound choices
- Why sometimes the most powerful storytelling happens in what you DON’T hear
Perfect For:
- Content creators wanting to add depth to their work
- Anyone curious about the “behind-the-scenes” of their favorite movies and shows
- Storytellers ready to unlock a completely new dimension of narrative power
- People who want to hear the world differently
What Makes This Different: No fancy equipment needed. No technical jargon. Just practical techniques you can apply immediately, whether you’re analyzing your favorite Netflix show or creating your own content with nothing but your smartphone.By the end of this class, you’ll never watch, listen to, or create stories the same way again. You’ll have developed an ear for the subtle audio choices that separate good stories from unforgettable ones.
