Work on my first script has begun. However, that isn’t the inspiration for this post. (Well, actually I was prodded kinda sorta which I didn’t mind.) Anywho, I am in the process of working on a few audio side projects. I am oddly fascinated by hearing a sound and then editing it over the course of several hours. The final product not sounding anywhere near the original. Sound design seems to pull me in; the idea of giving a listener a way to feel as though he or she is in another world. My longest bit of work is over an hour in length; a multilayered evolving piece. The other smaller segments will be added in at various points. I might even mix some actual elements to remind the listener of some thread of reality. Keep it vague. I will actually want to perform a test to see how I react when near sleep while the project plays. I want an unnerving feel; dark, as if floating through a void. If I only had surround sound, then I’d be able to make the final piece more than just typical stereo.
The other project is a promo and introduction for the podcast; something to grab the listener and urge them to keep listening. A small script has been written and so far, one email has been sent to Jon Specht
. I have a couple other people I will probably get feedback from before I make the final promo.
