Whether you’re a longform documentary maker, or reporting a short news spot, you need to have a deep understanding of the people and places you’re covering. WBEZ reporter Linda Lutton and Snap Judgment producer Adizah Eghan both believe in telling deeper stories through staying in one place.
But it’s not easy. At the 2018 Third Coast Conference, we brought together Adizah and Linda to discuss the peaks and pitfalls they’ve encountered when reporting stories that unfold in real time over months. This session includes practical tips on finding characters, identifying storylines, wrestling with hours of tape, and handling fatigue.
