Neon Hum Media, in partnership with Sony Music Entertainment, has announced the launch of its second annual free Editors’ Bootcamp, which will begin accepting applications starting today. 8 people will be chosen
Created as a free podcast training bootcamp for podcast editors from underrepresented groups, the eight-week course led by Neon Hum’s Executive Editor Catherine Saint Louis is designed to provide an opportunity for Black and Indigenous storytellers, the LGBTQ, Latino, AAPI, people with disabilities and all communities of color, to help drive their stories in podcasting.
The eight people selected for this year’s course will learn and develop relevant skillsets from some of the industry’s top editors and experts. At the conclusion of the course, one graduate will be offered a staff editor position at Neon Hum. The program is designed to develop the selected students into top candidates for employers to also consider hiring as editors after graduation.
The eight prospective editors for this year’s bootcamp will be announced in early 2022 and the course will run from mid-March to mid-May 2022.
The application portal is open now through January 21.
