Podcasting
The StoryCasters podcasting program was run over 12 weeks with 15 emerging podcast producers. Experienced podcast producer Jennifer Macey intensively trained participants in interviewing, recording and editing. The podcasters were then sent on group and individual assignments and also commissioned by Diversity Arts to undertake additional interviews.
Events covered include the Boundless Festival for Diverse Writers at Bankstown Arts Centre, We are the Mainstream International Women’s Day symposium and the Acute Actions: I Am Not a Virus exhibition, as well as undertaking interviews and production for Diversity Arts’ Colour Cycle podcast. Additionally, Podcasters collaborated with the “Sounds” cohort, and many of the podcasts feature their beats and music.
Diversity Arts has brokered paid work for the group from a range of arts companies, including FORM Dance Projects to undertake production for the first and second season of their FORMidables podcast. Sydney’s FBi Radio will air the podcasters content across several of their programs during 2021.
