I Apologise To All My Fans For Using The Word Immersive In The Press Release I'm Writing For I Need A

I apologise to all my fans for using the word immersive in the press release I'm writing for I Need A Miracle. I know. I know! But that's the pass-phrase that gets the bouncer to unbolt the door to Coverage just now. I'll do my penance (3 recitations of Jenny Nicholson's bit about "immersion" as a marketing term as relates to the failure of the Star Wars Hotel)

I love audio dramas because I can be listening to the most soul-crushing, stomach-turning, nightmarish stuff and at the same time I'm at the grocery store.

I Need A Miracle is produced with broadcast assistance from Teresa Milewski

Teresa Milewski is a firm favourite at @wirelesstheatre, and has been a dedicated and highly organised broadcast assistant on many of the company's most popular Audible Originals, and Wireless Original production Peace and War.

@merelymatt says, Teresa lit up our recording days, keeping on top of a technical job I won't pretend to understand while also being friendly and encouraging to everyone who entered the space.

whoever decided to start implementing ads on here that automatically unmute and cut off any music app you might have on in the background as you scroll by should be hunted for sport

Do any audio drama folks here have experience of monetizing with Apollo? I approached through the contact form on their website, where it says they try to get back in 2-3 days; been a couple of weeks and nothing back yet. Just trying to get a sense of how worthwhile it'll be to chase them up (and whether slow responses/not delivering on what they say they'll do is normal or unusual)

These reveals simply cannot stop keeping on coming!!!

Sound design for I Need A Miracle is by Sarah Buchynski

Polarity Audio Works

Sarah is the power behind Polarity Audio Works: a post-production house that understands the power of audio storytelling and is passionate about creating immersive stories.

You might recognise Sarah and Polarity from such illustrious credits as Kalila Stormfire's Economical Magick Services, Counterbalance, White Vault: Artifact and White Vault: Acquisition.

@merelymatt says, this show creates its setting in glimpses and snapshots, but with Sarah on board, every out-of-focus glimpse and passing scene is a fully realised world with depth you can sink into. Listen out for how her design subtly and simply sets the rules – and more importantly, the feel – of a world where the miraculous is mundane.
