Audio Storytelling Project for Audience Engagement

In my Finding Your E-Voice class, I explored recording and editing software to better understand the process of creating intentional audio content. I developed audio content designed to engage listeners through storytelling and conversational tone.

I created a podcast centered on the experience of renovating my first home while balancing school and work during my junior year. Through this project, I used sonic strategies such as tone, pacing, sound effects, and storytelling to create an engaging and immersive listening experience.

This project showcases my ability to:

  • Adapt communication for audio-based audiences

  • Use storytelling techniques to enhance audience engagement

  • Create meaningful content through digital media formats
