Bespoke Projects
Giving memory a form.
Sometimes, passing on a memory is not only about preserving it, but about giving it a form.
Alongside a craftsperson of storytelling or sound creation, Transmission designs bespoke audio documentaries, built as true works of transmission.
Interviews, archives, soundscapes, narration: each project receives a unique editorial and artistic accompaniment.
It is born from a conversation with Transmission and takes the form the story calls for.
A few possibilities
- A sound documentary around a family history.
- A multi-generational story weaving together testimonies, archives and memories.
- A creation built around a place, a house or a shared inheritance.
- A project bringing together voice, music, family archives and soundscapes.
- An intimate work meant to be discovered later by children or grandchildren.
Each creation is imagined from your story and the people it is meant for.
How it works
- 01
Conversation
It all begins with a meeting. Together we explore the story to be told and the form it might take.
- 02
Design
Transmission gathers the skills the project requires: storytelling, sound production, research, archives or musical creation.
- 03
Creation
Interviews, gathering, sound recording and editorial work gradually nourish the work.
- 04
Delivery
The creation is delivered to you in a form designed to be listened to, kept and passed on.
Depending on the project, Transmission surrounds itself with craftspeople of story and sound — directors, authors, documentary makers and sound engineers used to the demands of creative audio.
Each creation receives particular attention to narrative quality, sound production and the singularity of the story being told.
