Our Process
The Narrative Trust is a full service entity. We are equipped to manage all phases of an oral history project or provide specific services to fit our client's needs.
Before the first interview, the Narrative Trust gets to know its clients by deeply researching their past, mapping their place in a greater historical context and talking to key players who have institutional memory but will not be interviewed on camera.
We work with clients to develop goals and themes for the project, and refine a direction for each individual interview. Every interview is focused but fluid--an open-ended exploration guided by a well-informed interviewer. Experienced project managers facilitate the process every step of the way.
