The most critically undertrained element of being a journalist, producer, or talent is knowing how to pitch your work and how to receive feedback regarding that work. Magnificent Noise’s Eric Nuzum has been on both sides of the pitch table: as a commissioner and as a producer. In this workshop with Eric, you’ll learn the art of making other people excited about your podcast idea with a clear pitch that’ll rise to the top of the pile.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Eric Nuzum is the cofounder of Magnificent Noise and creator of iconic podcasts. Over the past 16 years, he has made podcasts that routinely top the charts, appear in yearly “best of” lists, win awards, and generate hundreds of millions of downloads. He was instrumental in creating NPR’s original podcasting efforts in 2005 and remained that effort’s chief creative and strategic force for the following decade, leading NPR to become the largest distributor of podcasts in the world. Eric developed some of NPR’s most successful podcasts, and continued that record of success during his tenure as Audible’s leader for short-form content and podcasting. In 2019, he co-founded Magnificent Noise, a podcast production and creative consulting company based in New York City. Eric’s book on audio and podcast creation, titled Make Noise: A Creator's Guide to Podcasting and Great Audio Storytelling, was released by Workman Publishing in 2020.
