Thanks so much for joining us, Alex!

FYI (in case you care about a production log updates) here's where we're at for "Dust":

- Added rough musical intro
- Re-recorded section 1 (of 4) vocals
- Tested out Tomahawk and Zarban vocals
- Rough edit of section 1 complete
- Section 1 sound effects roughed in
- Recorded section 2 vocals
- Excerpt 1 (feat Tomahawk) posted: http://snd.sc/19nIYCo
- Excerpt 1 (feat Zarban) posted: http://snd.sc/15qp0Ti

Still have a ways to go, but it feels like progress is going at a nice steady pace. My goal is to have section 3 vocals recorded tonight. Stretch goal is to either begin rough edit of section 2 or plow through and finish vocals for section 4.

Anyone up for trying a short title treatment for "Dust"? I'm thinking, well, dust. I picture the setting as 1930s dustbowl America. Wheat, wind, clouds, dust, rusty windmills, dead cars, old weathered wood, etc. The title could be dust blowing past some wheat, or dust being kicked up off the dry ground maybe.

I tend to pick a background (static or animated) and center the title in the frame. The title is usually animated separately. Most of the time, I just fade it in since I possess zero After Effects abilities. The videos are 720p and I believe just the standard 16:9 widescreen format. Not sure what the finished length will be... could be close to 30 mins in total. If the background is animated, maybe something that loops easily?

As always, you'll be credited in the video and in the description.

If no one's interested, that's fine. I'm happy enough to do it.

Zarban's excerpt is up:

This particular story is more like a Stephen King short story than a spooky campfire tale.

I really would love to do something like a radio play, for sure.

Check the original post. "Dust" is the sample narration I posted earlier. There's a link to the audio file and to the original story. I need someone to voice Carl, the old farmer neighbour.

Faldor: you're hired, too

I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for a 3-4 person story or maybe even some kind of short play we can adapt. The only stipulations I have are that the writing's half decent and the material is public domain.

I think this may be the most excited I've been about anything in a long time. Fuck. I'm so goddamn inspired after watching your doc, Teague. I want your album. I want Alex's babies. I want to live in that studio. I want Andrew to be my roomate. I wanna get drunk with Blain. Just... gah!

Can I just admit right now I've been squeeing on the inside about this since the first response?

In all seriousness. Who can get me some vocal samples by, let's say, Wednesday of next week?

I'm working on updating the excerpt with some temped sound effects and possibly some minimal music.

Ended up just getting a replacement ball. It's a SHURE SM58 and the ball is about 20 years old. Hopefully that helps.

Also scored a sweet deal on an M-AUDIO ProKeys Sono 61 key controller for half the retail price. Woot!
