A City Made of Sound

Audio documentary workshop for teenagers

Greek director and sound recordist Christina Pitouli, along with US-based filmmakers Carolyn Hepburn and Gordon Quinn, will lead 16 teenagers in a soundscape workshop. The participants will explore the wonderful world of sound and follow the instructors on a guided tour of the neighborhood, collecting field recordings and sampling urban sounds. They will then work on creating a downtown Athens soundscape, to be edited together over stills in a short audio documentary based largely on what you hear, as opposed to what you see. The workshop will take place over two days.
