🎙️ Audio Storytelling: Sound & Substance

What makes a story powerful when all you have is sound?

The School of Media & Mass Communication, BNU hosted an advanced three-hour workshop on Audio Storytelling: Sound & Substance, led by Ali Aneeq Sayyed, Program Host at Express News, and Asim Butt, Senior Correspondent & Producer.

Students explored the complete process of audio storytelling, from finding and developing a story to shaping narratives through voice, sound, ambience, and audio effects. Through hands-on tasks and practical exercises, they experienced how every sound can influence the way a story is understood and felt.

A session that turned listening into storytelling. 🎧

The WWF-Pakistan team, led by Communication Director Rabia Tahir, visited the Immersive Labs at BNU this week to experience one of the final year projects from the BS Immersive Media programme.

Raqs-e-Ravi takes a viewer through four timelines of the River Ravi, from its health in the Mughal era to its polluted present and a possible sustainable future. It was built in virtual reality by Zeeshan Ismail Israr, Ramish Mahmood and Rana Ammar.

The project came out of a simple idea: that immersive media can carry environmental questions in ways a poster or a report cannot. Seeing our students explain their work to a national conservation organisation was a good reminder of why we build the way we do.

Hosted by Naveed Aasim, Head of Immersive Media, and Dr. Rabia Noor, HOD Journalism and Mass Communication, with Wajih Junaid, Lecturer, Immersive Media.
