Thursday, July 30th, 7:30pm, in person at Barrel O’Fun and live streaming on Twitch

Twelve years to the day (well, to the month) since their first appearance at Nerd Nite, this dynamic duo of speakers is back to talk about their innovative way of entertaining audiences.

 

“Live Action Graphic Novel? What the heck is THAT?” by Jason Neulander

Jason will talk about inventing a new form of theater that combines radio play style performance with the artwork of graphic novels, all performed live, in celebration of his new production Treasure Island Reimagined: Jane Hawkins and the Pirate’s Gold.

Jason Neulander is a writer, director, and producer of theater, film, and books.

 

“A Brief History of Foley” by Buzz Moran

Foley, the art of performing real-world sound effects for recorded film audio, was seldom employed when films were silent, and even less before film existed. Let’s learn more about the intangible world of sound!

Buzz Moran is a sound effects artist, performer, and sound designer in Austin, TX. He created and performed the live sound effects for The Intergalactic Nemesis, a real big deal.
