Next Video Progress Update! (Woo!)
🕑 Added 2022-06-08 17:52:23 +0000 UTCHello, all!
So I know I promised a script draft earlier, and I'm sorry for the delay. It's undergone a fair few revisions after passing it to experts to look at, and I've made structural changes to help improve the overall flow.
But - slightly late - here is legendary draft #3! Feel free to read it through and give notes/critiques/praise. In fact please read through it to give notes/critiques/praise. If its all okay can get it recorded this week!
I've also started the work of collecting and building a reference sheet (which is usually the most labourious part of this process but is handy to keep track of what piece of info came from where); and I've started animating some of the bits I already have audio for.
Favour Town!
Mini favour #1: If you've offered to do a voice recording for the video (and thanks to everyone who's offered!) then get those over to me when you can (thanks to everyone who sent some across so far, they've all been really good!)
Mini Favour #2: I put out a casting call among my old performance groups for someone who is deaf or hard of hearing to voice Helen Keller, but unfortunately - while the acting pool is large - there wasn't anyone who met that criteria. I'm putting out another request but if you know anyone who would be interested AND:
1. Is deaf or HoH and identifies as a woman
2. Has a reasonable recording set-up (like a good mic, or a phone mic with a heavy duvet they can throw over the top of themselves/a wardrobe they can sit in)
Then please let me know! They can get in touch via my email: soupemporium1@gmail.com
My alternative plan is to reach out to someone like Jessica Kellgren-Fozard or Rikki Poynter and ask if they'd be interested, but (A) I think both of them are "Out of Office" right now (I'm not sure if Rikki is open to collaborations it wasn't clear from her contacts), and (B) this option comes with the risk of them seeing the things I make, hating them (relatable), and saying no. I'm too sensitive to handle that kinda rejection.
Anyway hope you like the new, more polished script!
