It’s true! Casting is done. The script is done. Now we’ve actually begun the process of producing our show! This is incredibly exciting for us. Most of our cast and crew have podcasted before, and many have taken part in audio drama productions, but it’s actually the first audio drama experience for us creators/executive producers/directors/whatever-you-want-to-call-us. So after more than four months of planning, organizing, drafting, revising, more drafting, more revising, washing, rinsing, and repeating, we’re finally at the heart of the whole process: recording!

Actors have their deadlines and scripts for the first half of the series. Editing assignments are being handed out. Lines have already begun coming in. Promos are almost ready to hit the web. Things are happening! Our months of patience and hard work are beginning to bear fruit and we couldn’t be happier!

The next step is to start the editing process: listen to all the actors’ lines as they are submitted, edit the scenes together, find and add in sound effects, then create the final mix. It sounds a lot simpler than it actually is. It’ll involve countless hours of work from our cast and crew, and a bit of patience along the way. Of course, all of this will go on while the second half of the series is being recorded and submitted for processing. Pre-production may be over, but the hardest work is still yet to come! It’s already been a fun experience and we’ve learned a lot about what it takes to produce this kind of a show. Hopefully the near future will teach us even more and get us ready for the next series. The best is yet to come!
