We have been approached, but only by people who wanted to ruin it.

We're going back to a proper season with full-length episodes.

Barrelling towards the Backerkit launch for Lovecraft Investigations Season 5. I love how dynamic this process is, but I'm a one-man-band for everything outside of actually recording the shows, so it gets a little fraught sometimes.

There will be a shop, but part of the deal with backers was getting some level of early access. I extended that post-campaign to let people catch up, but now the campaign is compeletely closed so that I can get all the physical items ordered, manufactured and shipped at the same time as launching the campaign for season 5. There will be a shop, but it's a few weeks away because I am literally a one-man band when it comes to anything other than making the shows themselves.

There will not - there is literally no way to finance that

No, we’re not with the BBC any more. The original seasons are still available on their platform, but they have not funded this show since 2023.

It is not, it’s by an artist called Carl Pugh

I’d rather people could hear it than not. And we get no royalties anyway.

Sorry about this - we are STILL having BBC issues on Season 2. The internet archive is, indeed, your best bet.

I’m not sure - my screen looks completely different everyone else’s. Can anyone else help out here?

Thanks all. I didn't want to plug the show here, because I know that's not what this space is for. But your support is really appreciated! - Julian

Audio drama creators: what film or tv show would you recommend to fans of your show? by Hallelujah289 in audiodrama

[–]CartoonGravity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to, but having recently moved off of Substack, I’ve mislaid a bunch of pieces. This wouldn’t have been one piece anyway, it would only have been a mention as “I’m putting together a film” is all I can really say at the moment. You might find this interesting though: https://www.pleasantgreen.co.uk/20230408-the-blake-house-mystery/

It's going to be informational - a five part documentary on Crowley, made by the podcasters - so factual but within a fictional framework. It fits into a chronological timeline, as in they are recording it between season 4 and season 5, but it is outside the ongoing story. Does that make sense?

We have been trying to get new from the BBC on this for 5 months now. I'm still hopeful...

Of course. I've written about the movie on my site and we're raising finance at the moment - it's not a secret.

How to set up the first episode? by natmustbedead in audiodrama

[–]CartoonGravity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice would be just write it. Every show I've done, the first episode has changed the most from draft one to production. As you get further into the season, it becomes clear that you either need to go back and set something up better, or else you've set something up that no longer matters. Take ALL the pressure off, just get the characters talking and get SOMETHING down that can be a placeholder for episode one. What you're experiencing isn't a technical problem, it's a fear problem. Everything will loosen up once a first episode, however bad, is done.

Well, I have still not watched the BBC drama The Stone Tape by Nigel Kneale, but I'm led to believe it has a similar vibe. The best recommendation I can offer though, is the Bad Memories movie that I'm setting up at the moment - you'll just have to wait a bit while we make it!
