I'm sure by now many people are wondering what they're going to hear when they tune into The Crimson Files starting August 24th. So, I thought I would answer some questions in the blog today. What kind of show am I going to hear? In a lot of ways, a fiction podcast is like listening to an audiobook with more voices, music and sound effects. Another key difference is that this story was written FOR audio as opposed to something written for print and adapted to audio. Superhero stories and be anything from light-hearted to dark. What is the tone of The Crimson Files? I would say The Crimson Files has a tone that could be closely associated films like Ant-Man with hints of the 1966 Batman TV series. So there's humor? Yes. There is humor in every episode, and sometimes you don't see it coming. There are characters in the story (Mr. Bill, Slick Saucy, Doc, Grandma Jeanie) who will say and do things at any time that might make you laugh. There are also several pop culture references, as well as nods to other superhero stories and other movies within the series. What kind of quality should I expect? Expect a high level of quality, especially in the voice actors and the production of the show. A high volume of days and hours are going into making the best possible show for the audience. What's the best way to indulge in the story? Is it hard to follow? Fiction podcasts are a "theater of the mind" form of entertainment. Many people will listen, and the show will generate visuals in their head. Others will listen and just follow along. A lot of work goes into making the story easy for the listener to follow (on the script and post-production side). There is also room for people to come to their own conclusions as to what is happening in certain scenes (like fight scenes). How many episodes are in Season One? There are six episodes in Season One, and each episode is about 25 minutes. A new episode will post every Friday starting August 24th. Will there be a Season Two? Most likely. The response and reaction to the first season will play a major role in making it happen. I can tell you that I have TONS of ideas for multiple seasons.
