How do you turn a multiple speaker seminar into a neutral article?

CoorsGirl asked:


I am trying to turn a seminar put on by two speakers into a neutral article. They each speak of personal experiences. Does anyone know of a format to follow or a web page with guidelines to help me with this issue? I need it to flow more like an article and less like a seminar. I appreciate any help!

    It’s difficult to answer without knowing the precise topic, **** he easiest way will be to put subjects together from each of their talks.

    Pull out common themes and write about them together.

    So instead of the whole structure being [the whole of what A said ] followed by [the whole of what B said]

    structure is:

    Theme 1
    [A said Clinton was fabulous] [B said whilst Clinton's good points were x, Obama was better]

    Theme 2
    Both speakers drew on their childhood.
    [A said he loved chocolate] [Controversially, B revealed that he loved jellied eels]

    etc etc.

    Look for a common message to both speeches and use this to draw a conclusion.

    “Emerging from the apparent differences between Mr A and Mrs B was that both had [triumphed over adversity] but in in very different ways. Both [blah blah] which we all can learn from”
