A good story told badly loses its audience in two minutes. Episodic media, whether a podcast, a video series or a newsletter, asks for more than that: it has to bring people back next week. Tamara Rosenfeld, director and supervising producer of Netflix's \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\*Street Food\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\* series, shares a framework and best practices for shaping stories for episodic online media. You'll learn to find the question that drives a series, structure an episode so it builds, use character and tension honestly, and end in a way that makes people want the next one. Then you'll work it through on your own idea, with feedback from Tamara and the room. For podcasters, video creators, writers and anyone with a story to tell in parts. Bring an idea for a show, or an episode you're stuck on.
