121 - Blood Culture: Conception to Production

Author: UberDuo Podcast Network September 7, 2017 Duration: 1:06:17
We can't wait for you to hear this fantastic interview with the multitalented man behind this years' hit Podcast thriller Blood Culture....Lance Dann >>>Writer, Director, Producer, Fundraising hunter, Podcasting book author, BBC Radio 4 Documentary Presenter and Academic. (And he's also rather groovy). Find out why he was beating himself up in a leather coat and headphones on in Brighton one evening, what amazing trans media tendrils are, why music was so important to the dynamic of his piece and how Blood Culture was fully funded and created and produced. Yes. Fully. Funded. AMAZING!

Look out for his book about Podcasting coming out next year. We might even write one ourselves.....

For anyone who has ever been captivated by a story told only through sound and wondered, "How do they do that?"-this is for you. The Audio Drama Production Podcast, from the UberDuo Podcast Network, is a deep, practical dive into the craft of building worlds with audio. It moves beyond simple advice to explore the entire process of bringing fictional narratives to life in your ears. Each episode tackles the specific, often unspoken challenges of writing for the ear, directing voice actors, designing immersive soundscapes, and weaving it all together in the edit. You'll hear about the technical choices behind convincing ambiance and the narrative techniques that make characters feel present in the room. Whether you're a writer curious about scripting without visuals, a producer figuring out remote recording sessions, or a creator wondering how to distribute your finished work, this podcast serves as a constant workshop. It’s a resource for making any form of audio fiction-call it a radio play, an audio drama, or a fiction podcast-focusing on the tangible skills and creative problem-solving required from initial idea to final master. The discussions are grounded in real production experience, offering a clear path through the complexities of this unique storytelling medium.
