A Lesson in Lessons - Analysis of Episode 2
🕑 Added 2021-10-14 16:43:42 +0000 UTCHere we are again! Sorry for the delay on this one.
Episode 2. A Lesson in Patience. For every episode except this one, I named them once they were done. But this one, no... I knew exactly what to call it. Teaching the listener how to wait. Edging them at a restaurant, and on the whole car ride home.
We had introduced the listener to how to use their hands, and their lips, and now it was time to teach them how to use their mouth. I had considered at first using this episode to have the speaker do oral first, ease the listener into it by teaching them how to be a slow and caring lover with your mouth. Instead I decided to lean into the corruption element and tease the listener with their desire to go down on him instead. It would be fun to see how far the listener would go to please him. Not only a blowjob, but a blowjob in the car? Yum.
I actually didn't know at this point yet that I was going to write in the Demon. That didn't come until I was starting the next episode. At this point it was still just a guy who was excited to push this lovely innocent partner towards a tasty darkness. Delicious Depravity.
As you can see, my writing was in blobs instead of split apart into paragraphs. I was not yet prepping ahead of time what I wanted to write, and just stream of consciousness spitting it onto the page. In other works/scripts I set out in brackets ahead of time what I want to occur, then write around them to form the work. Much more efficient and much cleaner that way for sure...
For SFX, I had some experience for this episode in car SFX thanks to the Dentist series Episode 4! The sound of a highway with cars driving by with the sound panned to one side. That on top of the sound of a city traffic with the sound Equalized to have all higher frequencies muffled so it sounds like you're in the car. I love these details so much. Some of the most fun I have in designing a soundscape is messing with how an environment sounds and flicking through settings to find just the right feeling.
The actual sexy time is pretty simple, just a teasing MDom pretty much giving JOI. This worked out well thanks to the soundscape of the car. It's always hard to have a loud or commanding soundscape and then do small, delicate SFX on top of it, so a scene like this has to be designed properly, or cheated with a activities like that that are entirely Listener dependent.
Overall a fairly simple episode in terms of content, but pretty fun to do Sound Design for.
