WE'VE LAUNCHED!!!

It's been a long road, with roadblocks seemingly set up about every 100 feet. But we did it. We got an episode out. And let me say what I know you're all thinking.

It's about damn time!

First, I want to get one thing out of the way. The sound. It sucks. I know. It's one of those roadblocks that I was talking about. And it was a big one. Essentially, some of the dialog was recorded incredibly low, and by boosting it in post, a fair amount of static crept in. Cleaning up said static led to other problems. Which then led to more problems. And so on. Bad news is, I filmed the first three episodes together, so it may continue for a bit. Good news is, the scenes in the first episode were probably the worst of it. Even better news is, I know where the problems came from, so everything should be fine after episode 3.

Something else you might be noticing is the grainy, cheap, black and white look. That was a big creative decision and it'll get a blog post all it's own in the near future.

Episodes 2 and 3 are in the can, so expect them soon.

So sit back, relax, hopefully enjoy.

And thanks for the patience.
