“In Freedom’s Cause” Audio Drama Update

The voice track editing is done, and the sound design has begun in earnest. Swords, horses, fireplaces, large wooden doors and…barns have been our focus over the past few weeks.

One scene takes place in an abandoned barn. Finding an area with NO TRAFFIC is the challenge! And for the past few weeks, we’ve been searching for just such a place. We found limited success today.Barn 3

This barn was abandoned a few years ago, and the pigeons and owls have moved in. We set up all of our gear and began recording, but our presence scared all of the birds away! So we essentially recorded an hour of a silent, empty room. We’ll go back this weekend to try another approach.Barn 1 Barn 2

Glenn Beck is Talking About Us!

All of the Foley and custom sound effects for this latest audio drama, Under Drake’s Flag, were recorded here at Rojo Studios. Mark Drury and I spent more than a week hiking, crawling, falling, sliding, sword swinging, gun battling and belly flopping to create the sound effects for this show. And it’s paying off! Glenn Beck discovered the production and loves it.

The story involves a lot of exotic locations and some exciting sword fights, ship-to-ship cannon battles, shipwrecks, and a lot more. We took our time finding the right props, and the sound turned out to be truly great. Here’s a shot of the studio after a particularly exciting sword fight. Listen to a clip here.
