Er, yes (ex-BBC), though mainly music; but I imagine there are others. If you find a need for my voice, I could provide that - it is distinctive in this company, I guess.

i have quite a bit of non-professional experience, if you need.
pwhodges:
It occurs to me that the sound editor will have more responsibility than usual, because they will be defining the manner, timing and speed of interaction of the different actors, who would normally be in a studio together doing their timing naturally. Just saying.

I am hugely excited by the scope of this project (and how bloody fun it'll be, too!) Please put me down as ready and willing in regards to:
1. Script (though I fear others are far superior in playwriting ability)
2. Voice Talent
3. possibly Music (incidental and/or theme)
As to format, theme, etc - I'd say a series of three half-hour episodes (dividing any plot into three acts) might work alright - well, it works alright for Radio 4 at least. I'm partial to both comedy and drama, and like May, I like the idea of sprinkling a little of both in, black comedy being my favourite anyhow. As to genre... well, anything goes really. I do like the idea of doing a murder mystery whodunit style thing - it makes the three-act structure work very definitely for a production. We could definitely lace the entire thing with comedy. Part Poirot, part Pinkerton, part Dirk Gently, perhaps?
Oh, and I'd be completely happy to draft up an audition piece if that would help the artistic director or whoever cast parts (and help the writer write parts to suit volunteer's voices)?
Caleb:
See in the past I have known countless people who have tried to do a huge project like this and nothing happened.
It's always better to to a super short project first to iron out the major kinks and figure out who is going to be doing what. Plus everyone just gets to have fun with it and not worry about things being perfect.
So again my idea is that everyone who is interested in writing should get a very short script together and we can decide which one to work with.
Again this is just an idea. Since there are people who have actual experience with editing and such maybe we could jump into a larger project first.
