Behind the Scenes of Open Season

Something Different in Audiobook Publishing

In a startling divergence from traditional audiobook production, Vermont Audio Drama Podcasting commissioned FinalRune Productions to produce a pilot episode for what will become a serialization of the novel “Open Season.”

This pilot was recorded in FinalRune’s signature on-location recording style at an old house in South Portland, Maine (courtesy of Mad Horse Theater Company) with a compliment of excellent Maine-based actors including Audie-award winning narrator Bill Dufris.

Actors crowded into the back seat of a car and drove through the snow, got out of cars and walked up stairs while shouting lines, and acted off one another in claustrophobic rooms – much like recording a movie, only without the camera.

Why Record This Way?

Recording on-location imparts a sonic reality and level of richness impossible to achieve in a traditional sound studio. The finished production sounds much more like an “audio movie,” resulting in a more engrossing listening experience.

The episodic nature of the project is also uniquely suited to the way we listen today. This serial will be easily listened to on an iPod, Kindle, iPad, or other mobile device. Like the old time radio days, installments will about 30 minutes long, leaving listeners eager to hear what will happen next!

Behind the Scenes of the Halloween 2009 Live Radio Drama

The Halloween 2009 Live Spooktacular was Fred’s first (and only) live radio drama at USM Portland, Maine – aired live on WMPG and before an audience.

Combining what he learned from Roger Gregg, as well as Brian Price and Jerry Stearns (at CONvergence in Minneapolis) this was Fred’s take on a live show… Why not make the first one you make the very hardest kind imaginable? Live performances, live music, live sound effects (including the hacking of a pumpkin!), as well as reaction scenes with the audience (with members alternately tagged as zombies or humans)… It was spooktacular!

Behind the Scenes of the Old Time Radio on Location Project with Mad Horse Theatre

Mad Horse OTR Project - Fall 2009

On location field recording with Mad Horse Theater Company in the re-creation of three classic old time radio (OTR) plays. South Portland, Alfred, and off the coast of Cape Porpoise, Maine!

FinalRune had the awesome opportunity to collaborate with Portland, Maine-based Mad Horse Theater Company in the re-creation of some classic old-time radio plays.

Two of the stories came straight out of the radio canon – Three Skeleton Key and Sorry, Wrong Number, with the lesser-known The Most Dangerous Game rounding out the project.

We decided to take these productions out on-location (an old school-house, a lighthouse) to add our own modern production flair to the classics.
