Had a great time at this last night, really recommend giving Last Dance a listen! Perfect for fans of grimdark fantasy 💕 Also this is the first time I've been able to go to a live show without flying anywhere. If you're planning an AD event, do me a favour and have it in Belfast bc that was class 😅

Last Dance @last-dance-media.bsky.social · 3d

I have no time to type but we’re doing a live reading and full cast QnA afterward TONIGHT live from the Brian Friel Theatre!

7:30pm BST so you can watch me ask a live audience whether a cyclist or unicylist win in a fight.

Friends, I need a Black masculine VO artist for my horror script for @11thhouraudio.bsky.social. It's a very small part, and you can to die fabulously! Everyone involved is volunteering their time, so there is no pay.

If you're interested, pls reply! I need recordings by October 15!

Shows that hit 50% funded are way more likely to make it all the way to 100% by the end of the campaign. Re: Frankenstein is at 40%! www.indiegogo.com/projects/re-...

Last but not least, remember to spread the word about the show if you're enjoying it! We depend on word of mouth to grow our audience, so every recommendation, review and social media post really helps 🥰

🚀✨ See you next Friday! ✨🚀

Monstrous Productions @monstrouspod.bsky.social · 3d

This episode includes an audience decision. 🗳️🤩 The unexpected "guests" on the Guillemot need to be dealt with. But who should take the lead in the situation, and should we lean on personal connections or professionalism to see us through?

Voting closes at 12 noon UK time on Tuesday 14th!

Let's goooo I'm so excited for this project and it deserves every bit of your support. Please, if you can't pledge yourself, share it so others can!

The Hi Nay Podcast @hinaypod.bsky.social · 5d

The aim of this project is to ensure Filipino artists, who are historically overworked and underpaid (like, $50 a week underpaid) can get paid for their art, which makes up half of this Kickstarter's goal!

The other half is to cover printing and delivery~

Help us hit 20% before the weekend!

The Hi Nay Podcast @hinaypod.bsky.social · 6d

15%! We're just about to clear 15%! Let's keep that momentum going and make this horror comic happen!

Gotcha, that makes sense! I've definitely seen things where I'm like... I'd love to support but alas, I can't do that much and you don't have any other options 😅 But equally, ones where I've not been able to afford Option 2 but wanted to give more than Option 1!

That's super helpful, thank you! When you say bad tier distribution, do you mean just unevenly spaced or too few tiers? (going from £1 to £50 to £100 for example)

While I'm mid-crowdfunding (cough cough support igg.me/at/refrank cough), does anyone have questions about crowdfunding for audio drama? Happy to answer! I've done it a lot.

How long do you think is a good amount of time to crowdfund for? Obviously you want time for word to spread, but you don't want to be dragging on forever. Also, what are some rookie/common mistakes or missteps you see?
