While it is difficult to define sound documentary immutably, it is nonetheless a genre in its own. Discreet on the airwaves, sound creation is nevertheless offered a greater place in the programming schedules, in radio, in festivals or on the web. It allows documentary filmmakers to explore new creative avenues and flesh out their storytelling art.

In this workshop you will approach the different stages of carrying out a project by integrating various narrative forms. You will see how to prepare for a short interview and choose your equipment. You will also have the opportunity to make a short form of sound documentary between the three parts of the workshop.

There is a week gap between each lesson to allow you to record audio content for your workshop, which will be the basis of your work for sessions 2 and 3.

To record audio content, Main Film offers 3 recorders for rental (with a rental fee):

– 1 Samson Zoom H5N digital recorder
– 2 Digital Sound Device 702T recorder
– 1 Digital Sound Device MixPre 6 recorder

Of course you are free to use your own equipment if you have it, and even use a phone recorder if you get caught up in it. For all questions about equipment rental at Main Film, you can contact Alexis or Gabrielle at tech@mainfilm.qc.ca

Workshop is given in French
