These 3 workshops are in the event schedule on Monday 1st July, 12.30 – 14.30, Wednesday 2nd 09.00-11.00 and Saturday 5th at 9.30 to 11.30, all beginning in Psarades.

I will be bringing 4 recording set ups and a couple of shotgun mics plus 4 sets of headphones. If you have your own plug in headphones, earphones or earbuds, that will help! We can also play with phones for recording of course.

Workshop 1 will introduce equipment use, techniques, ideas and approaches with some creative ideas to think about and we will try a bit of recording. We will also try to listen to some examples if we get decent connectivity!

Workshop 2 will largely take place doing field recording outdoors – trying create material a ‘work in progress’ together.

Workshop 3 will talk about editing but in some respects is problematised by what you do or don’t have access too (laptops of phones, software etc). BUT we will look at the psychology of multi-track editing, cuts, transitions, effects, wild-track and producing a really professional piece.

We will be working in distant conversation with a group of artists who are doing the same thing with Andrew Stuck in Sweden this week! So we will create a work in progress and share internationally (of course)!
