The Crimson Shadow Brings the Past to Life

devinDWhat is it about old time radio that inspires so much stage work? I’ve argued for some time now the old time radio takes its beats and passion from live theatre, while modern audio drama has its heart from the cinema.

Gina Gambony’s article from WHQR.org appears to agree:

Devin DiMattia is a local actor and founding member of the performance group, Pineapple Shaped Lamps (PSL).  While he’s been comfortable writing skits and short scripts for stage performance, DiMattia has taken the leap to create a full play, one that reflects his appreciation of 20th century radio drama.  DiMattia’s The Continuing Adventures of the Crimson Shadow opened last weekend at The Red Barn Studio Theatre and runs Thursdays-Sundays through May 1st.

Check out the show times with Thursdays to Saturdays at 7:30 PM, and Sundays at 3 PM. Long fight the Crimson Shadow!

Cold Casting

ColdRebootSocialCard-600x320New casting for Cold Reboot Audio Drama from the Chicago Artists Resource article:

Burning Brigid Media is now casting for a non-union audio drama mini-series “Cold Reboot,” to be distributed through the Synesthesia Theatre podcast. We will be recording in Chicago, approximately 3 days in May. All cast receive credit, and the opportunity to self-promote on the interview/chat episode of the podcast releasing upon completion of the mini-series.

We have roles available for a wide variety of types and ages. We are requesting self-taped voice auditions.Audition sides, breakdowns, and submission instructions are available on our website. Many roles will be doubled, so performers are encouraged to submit for multiple roles.

Submissions are due by Sunday, May 1, 2016.

Casting Call!

castingcallclub-logo-706017caacc9f429e2b016d9437cc193It’s that time of year for us at EVP where we start looking to the universities and local theatre guilds to get a solid group of actors for our audio dramas. We have fantastic performers, but sometimes they go inactive, get overused, don’t have time, or move away, and it’s always good to have a fresh supply.

If local acting isn’t in your wheelhouse for the time being, or if you want to try to go the route of fresh new faces (voices), maybe you might want to give Casting Call Club. Membership is free (although they do have enhanced premiums for those who pay) and there’s all kinds of opportunities. Check it out!

 

Gainsaying

cp_768_1_Gain-Staging_Mistakes_Fig_1This fantastic help document on Gain Staging- 5 Mistakes to Avoid by Joe Albano, does an incredible job of going through some of the most parts of recording. What is gain staging you ask?  According to the article, “gain-staging is, in practice—optimizing the level at the input and output of each step in the processing chain (real or virtual)”. So now that you know, make sure get an opportunity to erase mistakes for your next productions!

 

Audio Tips for Migration

somali-drama-640x480It’s not often that Brietbart mentions audio drama, but they took the time to talk about a BBC Radio Drama that they feel gave practical tips for illegal migration out of Somalia.

Of course, one might consider that the Old Time Radio series I Was a Communist for the FBI might be giving practical tips on being a Communist during the Cold War Era as well.

Read for yourself in the article: BBC Radio Drama Gave Tips For Illegal Migrants in Somalia and decide for yourself!
