Hello, Nigel Levy here, and welcome to this podcast series.
It's been created to explore the simplest yet most powerful way to create meaningful documentary stories.
Storytelling in documentaries is something that seems to exist between drama techniques and instinct. But it is its own discipline, with specific skills and techniques that exist to take reality, something you care about, and create stories with impact.
If you get it wrong, you have documentaries that are no more than a list, a confusion of ideas that mean very little.
This series of podcasts is designed to share the experiences of some of the world's most successful storytellers working in factual TV and documentaries. We will be exploring the processes, techniques and strategies that can take an idea and turn it into a compelling and powerful story.
I was lucky enough to begin my time in broadcasting as a young assistant producer at the BBC. It was, in many ways, a wonderful experience. But there were many things that were never taught, and you were expected to discover for yourself.
Specifically, once again, storytelling.
In this first episode, I share how I decided to work out exactly what was involved in creating great documentary stories so that I left nothing to chance.
