From Slides to Sofas

How to create compelling strategic content based on in-home interviews 
A half day workshop with Mark Hadfield from Meet the 85%

Next Workshop: TBA

This practical half day session will teach you how to do empathetic and revelatory interviews with people in their own homes. You’ll discover how to use some of the skills of ethnographers, journalists and documentary makers to get to the truth and how to edit your video, photographic and intellectual content in a compelling way that captures their reality and convinces both clients and creatives.  The workshop will take place in Central London and we can take up to 10 people, so book your place now. 

What will it cover?

The training will be split into 3 areas and is a blend of presentation, discussion and group exercises.

1) Observing & engaging: Creating the conditions for personal truths to be shared.

2) Capturing their reality: Looking beyond our biases and capturing the lives of participants.

3) Finding the story: Reflecting on the evidence and developing themes.

 

You’ll leave the session with tips, tricks and approaches to help you in your role moving forward.
