Vignettes Master Post

Whomst? Hey, Tumblr! My name is Lea Lawson (@leals3), and I'm the creator of Vignettes! I Neil Breen'd this project and did all the things (save for the soundtrack I sourced from Tim Kulig, the open+close themes by Maria Damianou & myself, and the seven episode artworks are also by Maria!)

What is Vignettes?

It's a fully improvised short form audio drama! You read right, I wrote out loud and just had to trust that I'd find my way through each story

You'll get dropped into a situation (or an about-to-be-situation) and get to decide if the episode's char is a reliable narrator

You don't need to know any backstory to jump into any of these! That said, maybe read each episode's show notes before hitting play for CWs if you have certain triggers – episodes can be intense at times and I made these feeling grief so pls take care x

You're gonna fill in the blanks because I voice one character per episode and I don't give you context. Wait, was that char being literal or figurative? Wait, who are they talking to? Wait, did they survive?? Woah, is your theory about x episode different than your friend's? Maybe drawing your own conclusions is fun :)

The story part of the episodes only run sixish minutes, and with theme/credits only eight to nine mins long – bite sized audio, hooray! You have under ten minutes to spare, yeah?

I've solo'd this so it could be fun hearing what nonsense flew out of my mouth?

There are seven episodes to this show, and the total runtime is 59 mins so TBH this is very bingeable!

It's not just my voice, you'll also be treated to a full score and SFX!

Finally, it's my first time with full creative control of anything, and made this on a wing and a prayer. It's a little rough - but the point was the journey: raw and imperfect

Whenst? (I know that's not a word. Just let me do the bit). All episodes are out now! ^_^

Episode #1: The Loop - They haven’t been here before. Or have they?

Episode #3: Downfall - They decide their timeframes. Are they good at their job?

Episode #4: Speak When - They dared to speak up. Should they have?

Episode #5: Faces - Grief looms in any world. Does it hurt the same?

Episode #6: Glitch - They volunteer to test experimental tech. Was it worth the money?

Episode #7: Siphon - They are trapped by what they are. They are trapped by what they are?

And if you scroll down this Tumblr, or look through the hashtag #vignettes pod, you'll find posts with a little BTS of each ep & plenty of chatter in the hashtags too

Why? Why not? It kind of just happened. For real though see the website for more info :) Thanks for dropping by. Please share the show if you liked it, and I'll undoubtedly see you 'round the AD world!

E7. Siphon - They are trapped by what they are. They are trapped by what they are?

Vignettes, an improvised audio drama. Sci-fi suspense where you fill in the blanks, and every episode is different from the last.

Click here to listen -> Throw on those headphones, and talk yourself into or out of tearing apart your inner nature here Heading into the booth I genuinely didn't think Siphon would be the final episode; but these things have a way of choosing for you.

I woke up with that gravel in my voice and said: okay, we're gonna work with that. Wasn't expecting to be working with a lot of rage, however. And the rage and complexity of identity of this being has been long brewing.

Fun fact: though I felt this was an anthology, it was not long after I started talking did I realise I was wrong. It legitimately was "Charlie Kelly, wild-eyed, with the red strings" as I spoke lmao and I was making connections to the other episodes left, right, and centre. And that made me oh so excited, listener (my grinning between spitting venom must have looked so strange). Am I going to explain what connections I made though? Absolutely not :D Because this show isn't about explanations. It's about allowing raw emotion to surface. It's about the journey. It's about finding what moments or words connect to you, and discovering why that is significant.

It certainly made me think afterward why these moments hit me so hard. Even just acknowledging those feelings was important.

Vignettes was important for me to make. I didn't know I needed it, or that it was coming, but it made itself known to me anyway.

I hope you can have an outlet too -in any way that makes sense to you- because the world is on fire and feeling connected to others is more crucial than ever. They want us to feel alone, and disconnect from ourselves. I need you to know that you are not alone, not in physical space nor in your feelings, and that those feelings are real and valid.

Grief wears many faces.

Acknowledge it.

Sit with it.

But don't let it consume you.

You've got this.

-Lea
