Isn't Pre-Production FUN!?

I've been quiet for some time, deep in the trenches of writing room hell and only now am managing to find a moment to come up into fresh air and clue you amazing listeners in on what's been happening at Red-Fathom over the last 4 months. Fortunately, we have some pretty big news to announce in regards to progress on our various stories!

Read on, Listener!

SCARLETT: Pushing Onwards

The Writing Room

It's done. All eight episodes are in. I can say with some great relief that we've now officially entered the zone where script polishing are happening while our editor chops through the season. It's very rare that a thing turns out on paper exactly the way you imagined it. This story is tight, cinematic and powerful. It was... therapeutic to write this one. I think I got some things out that I've been trying to say for a long time. I can't wait to share it with you.

Kickstarter V 2.0

After licking the wounds sustained by a very close shot at our funding goal I've been hard at work to push ahead in every way that I can.

That said, we're not in the clear yet as far as making this thing happen. We have enough in the coffers to push ahead but not enough to make us whole. In order to pay licensing, voice talent, sound effects and other production costs we still need all the help we can get.

So this is our announcement that come January we will be returning to Kickstarter for a new campaign! With some re-calibrated rewards, a lower ask (thanks to said financial patronage we need a lot less then we did!) and new goals (both stretch and otherwise!).

We'll absolutely keep you guys informed about when you can look out for this and until then, we're going to keep making this thing behind the scenes!

HANNAHPOCALYPSE

The Writing Room

Out of one project and into another I am both happy and proud to announce that we're putting pen to digital paper in December! Hannahpocalypse is a much bigger season then Scarlett with a bigger scope so my goal is to get the first eight episodes of the season written before entering production on Hannah. My goal is to then be chipping away at the last eight during production + more then likely a mid season hiatus. If that takes roughly as long as Scarlett took, we could be back as early as April-May. Later then I would have liked but such is the fate of one man operations like ours. That said... I'm thinking that we might be able to give you the pilot a little earlier. No promises of course, but it feels like something we can make happen.

Season 1 Remaster Project

...is probably the thing stressing me out the most right now. Because it's something I really want to see happen sooner then later. Even though the season gets better and better in regards to quality the further along we get I want to make sure episode 8-16 of Season 1 get the proper treatment. Unfortunately there is only so much of me so I've had to break some promises on timeline for this, which I hate doing.

My new plan of attack for these episodes is to use them as an on ramp to get back in the swing of editing since I haven't been actively doing audio since leaving season on Hannahpocalypse. That said, I'm hoping that you won't have to be patient much longer on this seeing as production on Scarlett is hopefully going ahead in January.
