Know the story.
Deliver the detail.
A detailed exploration of the role of the Showcaller
Showcalling requires training and experience. The fact we do not operate a control desk doesn't mean all the role requires is a laptop and a running order.
These online courses will show you what the role actually involves — the detail, the decisions, the multiple skillsets required. When you first put those headsets on, the doing will become less terrifying. We all threw ourselves in for the first time once.
There is no substitute for the doing. Learning here is where you start.
