The Scripts Out Loud podcast!

In preparation for the very first Scripts Out Loud podcast series, we have finished reading all of the submitted scripts and narrowed them down to the following 6! Each script will end up having sections performed by voice actors and then reviewed by a Head Writer and Producer from the animation industry. What a fabulous opportunity to showcase new writing and chat about ways projects could be developed and improved!

Here are the selected six scripts we will be playing about with :-) CONGRATULATIONS!!
