Lynn Ermann on Finding a Story On-Site

19m | Aug 14, 2026

In this episode, host Cory Choy (founder of the Dash, Emmy-winning sound mixer, and owner of Silver Sound Studios) sits down with Sonic Dash finalist Lynn Ermann, the reporter and producer behind "There Used to Be a Statue."

Lynn shares how, through assembling the right "ingredients" (a source she was familiar with and an intriguing location), she was able to find a story on-site and lean into spontaneity. She also shares how movement influences her creative process, along with the editing challenges she faced while shaping the story.

One note: Lynn wanted to offer a correction to a detail in her Dash piece. The statue was stolen, not relocated.
