I am coming out of the closet. Yes, it is true. Because I have been in the closet once again. I have just completed two productions through Magic Cottage Creations. One is called "Kayaking Solo", a story about a woman who kayaks around Salt Spring Island to shake off a relationship gone awry, and the second is called "Francesca Saves A Unicon", inspired by my family, for the younger set, say less than eight years old.
Here is what it looks like when I do a reading for audio publication.... the coat hangers are my innovation. Whaddya think? Should I patent them? The idea is to do away with the rustle of the turning page while recording. I also wrap a curtain behind me so the sound stays within.
The closet is the preferred place to do a recording because the hats and coats absorb any reverberations from a large empty room, and this way I have an instant insulated sound booth. So handy.
Coming to a sound theatre near you...
