Basics of On- & Off-Air Texts

22.05. – 23.05.2014 / Eyes & Ears Academy, Munich

Everybody has something to say – but how can we make sure it really reaches the listener? That question is the central focus of this two-day Eyes & Ears Academy.

With clear examples and practical guidance, participants will follow the trail of successful speech patterns. At the end, participants should have a feeling for what makes a good text and be able to make their mark with strong headlines, claims and trailer concepts.

In the end, everyone should get their own sense of good writing and leave with strong headlines, claims and trailer concepts.

This event from Eyes & Ears of Europe and the Disney Channel in Munich is aimed primarily at employees of media and communication companies, (post) production firms, design studios, consultancies, marketing, advertising and dialogue agencies who want to learn more about advertising spot conception and viral marketing. Persons interested in the media, students and trainees are also very welcome.
