About this Event
Join Detroit Writing Room coach and public radio and podcast veteran Zak Rosen for "Sound Questions: The Art and Craft of Interviewing" at Michigan Central Station.
In this workshop, participants will study masters of the interview form across broadcast and digital media, and practice honing their own interview style and methodology.
Whether you’re an aspiring podcaster, journalist, documentarian or just trying to get better at talking to friends and strangers, the participatory workshop will help lay the groundwork for one of the most important parts of being alive: listening deeply and responding authentically.
Participants will leave with a plan and a map for their next big interview.
