Do You Want to Believe?

Why do we believe in the supernatural? A radio documentary exploring paranormal belief through history, psychology and personal curiosity.

Research, interviews, presentation & edit

Process & credits

I researched the subject, arranged and recorded interviews, and shaped four perspectives into a narrative: a believer, a sceptic, a medium and a psychologist.

I used sound design between sections and left the interviews free of background music. Two interviews were recorded in the Griffith radio studio; two were conducted remotely.
