Still too crazy-busy to spend much time blogging, so I decided to turn this post over to a guest auteur, one of the master storytellers of our age, Ira Glass. He needs no introduction, so I won’t introduce him. I’ll simply siphon his 4-part, 17-minute presentation off YouTube and hand it over to you in 4 player windows. The rest is up to you. He’s brilliant, so savor the experience. And while you’re at it, take notes and ponder how his insights apply to your productions.

Enjoy!

That’s all, folks! Your comments and questions are always welcome.

I'm an award-winning writer and producer, and an occasional blogger at "Seeing Your Story" (www.seeingyourstory.com). Until recently, much of my work had been hour-long programs for cable TV networks, including Discovery, TLC, The History Channel, A&E, Discovery Health and National Geographic Channel. My experience ranges from commercial TV to public TV to corporate video to experimental film. These days, I'm doing more writing than producing--scripts, of course, but also writing for marketing materials and other assignments not destined for big or little screens. Documentary and documentary-style production are at the center of my work and expertise. But my range of approaches, subjects and skills goes well beyond documentaries.
