Update on Pygmalion

Well I started editing the recordings, it will most likely be awhile before I finish, mostly because I am rather busy with school. I also started recording my older brother for the part of Higgins (due to the fact that the person I originally cast has recently entered the seminary). Which has been very fun, my older brother, shall we say, is very entertaining and he knows it. Hopefully I can get the whole thing edited and finished by this Christmas. Another exciting point, we are going to use a song composed and played by my little brother on the piano for our production group's theme. It sounds amazing and I can't wait to record him.
I am also going to be starting a writing a book in the near future, say maybe a few years, well maybe a little sooner then that, though I have to say that I never thought that I would ever want to write a novel but here I am about to start writing the beginning draft. Also of all subjects I chose Science Fiction, who would have thought! I'm also looking at recording some public domain books, but we shall see what happens.

Welcome

 On the behalf of the Church Basement Production group, I welcome you to this blog. We are now working on our first production, Pygmalion, a full-cast radio drama. If all goes well, I should have this done and on the website by Christmas.
Our production group will not only do radio dramas, but also movies, books, art, music and other media forms. To illustrate the kind of things we will be doing, here are some projects that we hope to take on. My sister and I are hoping to film a sort of mock-umentary (which is a documentary except fictional) on fairies, where the hosts of the show go on expeditions to find fairies and mythical creatures. It would be in the format of a regular TV documentary show.
A little near to the future, my sister is writing a dramatization of the trials of St. Joan of Arc. This would be for the radio and we hope we could find someone who would broadcast it on the radio.
Also my sister is working on her first novel, called the Abandoned which will be the first in a series of three. She is hoping to have it traditionally published, but we will also have it available on the website.
