There are so many guides out there for how to make a podcast, and for how to make an audio drama. But there’s a difference between reading an article and hearing the reality behind the process. Scoring Magic follows creators at Hug House Productions as they create fiction podcasts. They’ll share tips, tricks, and resources, but also what it’s like to work on a massive creative project with friends. Seasons 1 and 2 follow the creation of the 3-season urban fantasy podcast VALENCE. Season 3 will cover an upcoming solo (or mostly solo) project.

It's a very NSFW one, pals! And also, it's got VALENCE S1E11 spoilers, so make sure you listen to that first! In this episode, I talk to Josh Rubino (Liam) and John Westover (Nico) about conveying "fuck energy." But also, we talk about modern art, control issues, and how people convey their trauma.

Check out Cornelia Parker's "Mass (Colder Darker Matter)," the art piece discussed in this episode, here:

Scoring Magic - COMING SOON: Scoring Magic Season 2!
play

12/28/20 • 1 min

Last year, we left off having just barely debuted Season 1 of VALENCE. Since then, we've been hard at work on Season 2 . . . or, at least, as hard at work as 2020 has let us be. What has it been like creating in 2020? How have we adjusted? How have we failed and triumphed--and what does that all mean for Hug House, VALENCE, and other creative works up our sleeves?

We'll talk about all of this and more in Season 2 of Scoring Magic, coming January 2nd, 2021.
