"The Table Round" Podcast Audio Drama

Well, a while back I was working with a partner on a "Star Wars" audio drama. Partner backed out, and while I liked the work we'd done, in a way I never quite had the heart to finish it, since any fan-fictiony work is a little... well odd. Not quite something to be proud of totally. 

Anyway, I'm now making my own audio drama based on the legends of King Arthur. I've got three scripts finished, two more almost done, all sound editing except dialogue finished for episode one. Auditions are posted at 6 sites online, and I'm working on building my web-presence through Wordpress, Twitter, and Facebook. 

Im aiming to be cast by the end of the month, produce the first three episodes in total, and release the first episode Mar 1. 

If anyone is interested, I'd rather work with mates than strangers.

Auditions are here

I could use advice or aid from anybody who knows about

• Podcasting
• Making a cool logo or other graphics
• Making a website (better than just a wordpress site)
• Scriptreader
• Anyway anyone might want to be involved. Musician? Singer? Alliterative poet?

Sounds like a cool project. Didn't 005 design a logo for a company he work(s/ed) for? Maybe you could ask him about that. Good luck, I wish I could be involved.

I'm pretty good at 1 and 2. 3 I've only worked with Wordpress.

I've also played Sir Dinadin in a local production of Camelot. Which gives me the advantage.

 Welcome to the team. You're now an executive vice-president.

What I really need is some kind of stylish Title text, that I can paste onto various public domain artworks I'll be using for each episode. This is an extremely crappy mock up of what I'm hoping for. 

Can anyone do impressions of any of the following? Let me know, I might have a neat little role for you if you're interested.

• James Mason
• Sean Connery
• Liam Neeson
• John Huston 
• Richard Burton
• John Hurt
• Max Von Sydow
• Jean Reno
• Vincent Price
• Boris Karloff
• Christopher Lee
• Andre the Giant
• Peter Ustinov

I'd audition myself as a John Hurt type.

If I wasn't a minor...

 Age ain't nuthin but a number.

You know another famous stutterer? James Earl Jones.

I'm recording my audition right now. Came out horrible, nevermind.

 :( 

I've had an idea for a logo. Not sure if it would suit. I'll sketch it up later if I can find some time.

Are you planning on having things like music or wil it be pure dialogue?

Tack said:

OK, there's other reasons. 

1. Don't know if I have the equipment.

2. Most likely I'll still sound like a kid.

3. Don't know how to upload it.

So, I wish you well Mr. Boost.

Umm, Mr. Boost is my father.

No worries.

So far I've collected some Creative Commons music (incompetech.com rules!) and am using an old opera recording in the public domain (go Wagner!), but am always looking for more. 

(I forgot I had this thread and already posted on the podcast thread... but whatever)

Go listen! Before I change my mind and add Mordred shooting first.

I forgot about listening to this. :P I was planning to, but I guess I'll have to do that later and give my feedback then...

Thanks gang.

Audio quality will be an ongoing goal. Sometimes you have to work with what ya got. The alternative would be me playing multiple roles with my two great character voices: "Mid-Atlantic Newscaster" and "Mid-Atlantic Newscaster Bad Irish Accent."

Chapter Two is live!
