Whew! Finished the second episde of the two-episode audio drama, "Two of a Kind," which is scheduled to debut September 5. The last two scenes combined equaled about five and a half minutes, so that took the episode to 34 minutes total (with theme music at either end). I'd been hoping for a 29.5 - 31 minute range, just to show that I could do it, but when it came to cutting the story any further from yesterday's (and this morning's) massive overhaul, I decided against it. There are bits of lines and snippets of scenes that I *could* cut, but I like the episode to listen to. There's the right mix of intellectual evil doer, grotesque evil doer, comic good guy, cosmic good guy, and desperate young female in danger to make it interesting. |
It's nice to know that at last I've created an audio drama that actually fits onto one CD. "Two of a kind" is about 65 minutes long in total (two epiodes), so that means I can schlep it around Chicago TARDIS this year and attach some advertising to it. After "Two of a Kind," I plan to air INFLUX OF THE ARRAY (non-Dr. Who version), and then do "Hounds and Hares." I've started scripting Hounds and Hares. I believe it is twelve episodes, which is the longest audio story to date. Then it's time for a Christmas story. I hope I can carry out these plans, but everything is subject to the Will of God.
