The Amelia Project Audio Advent Calendar - What is it?
Here at The Amelia Project we are bananas about advent calendars. One door to open every day, the daily little treat, the surprise...
Which is why we thought:
Wouldn't it be cool if this December, we appeared on your podcast feed every single day with a surprise dispatch from your favourite death fakers?
We want to create 25 minisodes, a month of choc-a-bloc Amelia content that chronicles life at the Amelia offices in the run-up to Christmas. There will be deadly Mistletoe, a visit from Saint Nick (or Krampus?) a snowman nativity scene, and of course lots of festive cocoa!
Hold on! The Amelia Project? You're some kind of death faking agency?
Yes.
Or rather, a fiction podcast about a death faking agency. And about cocoa.
We tell stories about an eclectic range of clients who want to disappear and start over with a brand new identity.
The regular podcast focuses on clients and cases, the Audio Advent Calendar on the other hand, will focus more on daily office life, the things that happen between the cases.
You don't have to be caught up with the podcast to enjoy the Advent Calendar! As a new listener it will serve as a great introduction to the show, but as a longtime listener you will learn so much more about the characters and what happens when the clients leave the room.
Why Indiegogo?
Writing, recording, editing, designing, composing... Making twenty five minisodes is going to take a lot of work!
We fund the regular show through Patreon, but we want to make this Audio Advent Calendar in addition to the regular show. So that's why we're asking for extra help.
Stretch goals...
- If we reach 100% of our Indiegogo goal we can make the Audio Advent Calendar!
- If we reach 120% we commit to bringing forward Season 5 in early September!!!
If we reach 140% we commit to making an additional full length bonus episode called Alvina's First Christmas which we will make available to every single backer, regardless of the amount you pledged!
All additional funds will be used to put extra sparkles on the calendar and allows us to pay our team more for their hard work!
Your impact!
Every single contribution helps! We love making this show, but it involves a lot of people and a lot of work and commitment. We want to pay everyone fairly for the time and passion they pour into it. Your donation puts a smile on our face, cocoa in our mugs, and lets us know that you want us to keep telling stories!
What you get...
Your contribution brings The Amelia Project Audio Advent Calendar into existence!
The episodes will be published on the regular podcast feed, but will only stay there until the end of December, after which, like our clients, they will disappear.
But if you are a backer, you will get a permanent download link, as well as an exclusive supercut of all twenty five episodes that you can listen to every Christmas!
There are also lots of other great perks to choose from, do check them out!
Other Ways You Can Help:
Of course we understand that not everyone is in a position to contribute financially. If you are excited about this project and want it to succeed, but can't contribute monetarily, we would still really appreciate it if you could spread the word! Share this campaign on social media and tell people about the podcast! That would be really appreciated!
Thank you for reading this far!
Now let's crack open a bottle of Veuve Clicquot! Can you hear the Amelia theme swelling up?
