The first month of DECA 2 production is over. And I think it's been a very good one. 

Right after the crowd funding campaign funded, I started going through the script again. I had a lot of very good feedback from beta readers and some of my friends and family that always have great constructive feedback. It took rewriting it twice to get it to the final point. Especially the ending got a lot of overhauls and I think the script is now on version 8. But I feel very confident about it . Weirdly enough, season 1 also took 8 versions... 

Then casting and recording started. I don't record chronologically, but per role. So I really get into one role, try to find the perfect actor for that part and record that performance. Once I feel really confident about the performance and consider it a wrap, I move on to he next one. It won't come together into cohesive episodes until all the individual parts are on tape. That proces can be very, very slow, but it's the only way for me to get it right without drowning in the project. And I think I've been able to make a lot of progress. The casts consist of roughly 27 different voices - ranging from the lead to the very small three line supporting parts. And now, I've finished 10 of those in about two and a half weeks. Some of which were parts I was very nervous about getting to work. So, I'm very happy with that! I'm hoping to keep this momentum going next month.

I'll end this with a reminder that you can check on my real-time progress anytime, by checking out THIS doc. You will see the episodes titles - just a warning in case you want to go in completely without spoilers.

I'll write up the next update in a month, hopefully having recorded (almost) all the performances!
