Join him and his team- Moray, Kraken, Kali, and Vedette- as they storm the galaxy, meet royalty of far off planets, fight hive minds, run from cultists, and try to avoid the debri of an ongoing intergalactic resource war.

Silent Transmission: Episode 8- "Toiling In Miracles" (Audio Drama)

Sun, 15 Jan 2023 17:28:55 GMT

:This episode was originally posted to YouTube with sparse visuals:

Content Warning: This episode contains swearing and jokes that are inappropriate for younger viewers. This episode also contains flashing lights, jump scares, death, violence, and a character experiencing a seizure. Viewer discretion is advised.  Protect the children's eyes.   


Episode Synopsis:  “The Red Scales are still recovering from the aftermath of their last mission. Xenthar in particular is finding it difficult to process the devastation the team witnessed. Despite Kali and Moray wanting to push forward, their road of obstacles is far from over.  Luckily, Kraken is surprisingly good at understanding riddles.”  


 "Silent Transmission" is an audio drama that features sparse visuals. It is not an animated series. It's hardly storyboarded. It can be enjoyed by just simply listening in the comfort of your car or while crocheting. Maybe even knitting. The world is your oyster. 


 —— If I had a nickel for every time I had to temporarily live in a hotel while working on an episode of Silent Transmission, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice, right?  We’re kicking off the second half of season one with a bang! I will admit, I’ve been just as nervous about these next couple episodes as I am excited. Our characters are finally getting into some serious stuff. Soon they’ll have to talk about their feelings and not just goofs. Spooky.   We’re also getting more screen time of our main antagonist. It’s about time, ain’t it? Well, I hope you’re ready for episode nine then, because Yeast will be taking the reins as the lead, and he’s taking no prisoners. Literally. Yeast is not a prisoner kind of guy.  He’s more of a “make a colony disappear overnight” kinda guy.  I’m satisfied with how this episode turned out. Of course, it couldn’t be done without my amazing team! They helped me out a lot this episode. Even just chatting with me while I was working helped keep me motivated.

 Love you guys!

Episode Synopsis:

“A month after the events of episode six, the Red Scales head to a new mission, but not before a quick detour. Arriving at the human colony, they find themselves among a party most bizarre. Even more strange, one of the attendees is a familiar face.

Hopefully their mission doesn’t get too derailed by the festivities.”

This episode was originally uploaded on YouTube with sparse visuals and some full storyboarded scenes.

Ya’ll. You would not believe how excited I am to release this episode. I have been itching to finish it since the completion of it’s script. And now, it’s finally here!

I hope you don’t mind some of the extreme tonal shifts. I don’t want to spoil anything down here in the description, but uh, the plot is here. And she is READY to throw down.

There was a lot of experimenting with this episode. The SACRILEGIOUS PMV was actually made partly as a test for this episode. Hopefully when you watch this episode you can tell why it took so long to make, ha! I know this series is just supposed to be an audio drama, but clearly I just like making things harder for myself. Some of the glitch effects were made frame by frame. Some of the distorted “Yeast” images near the beginning and in some of the glitches are actually AI images I made while goofing around in DALL-E 2. A lot of the background sound effects were actually recordings I took of bustling city streets while on vacations. In short, a lot of care went into this episode.

I also want to give a special thank you to the crew, including Xepherite, who handed in their lines as a last minute emergency. I am so grateful for all of you to take time out of your days to help make my little story come to life. I’ve gained some amazing new friends through this project, and they’re all incredible talented! Did you not hear them??? They were phenomenal this episode! Please support these guys in any way you can. They are incredible.

I hope you enjoy!
