TRACY BACENAS
CUSTOM WORKSHOPS
I create custom workshops for groups of students and professionals who want to learn how to shape video and audio content into compelling narratives that tap into viewers' emotions. I teach people how to organize media, structure content into narrative arcs, and how to use different types of media to stitch together tight stories that resonate with viewers.
