In view of the amazing response we’re getting to my Dad’s “Blue Sky” audition, I feel like I should let you all in on the story of how he came to be involved!  Just a short story, don’t worry:

My sister and I went over to our parents’ house Sunday to do laundry, and we told them all about the Podsky project that we’re co-producing with Mochadoodles.

To our delight, Mom and Dad were fascinated and excited by it.  Dad was so taken with the idea that he seriously wanted to audition.  He’s the kind of Dad who read to us constantly (when he wasn’t making up his own epic stories to tell us) and always did all the voices.

The only problem was that neither of our parents knew the story of Portal 2, having only seen it up to the point where GLaDOS wakes up and “kills” Wheatley.  So yesterday my sister and I returned with our PS3 and we all sat down in the living room to watch Ridel play through Portal 2 so that our parents could have some context for the story! XD

They both really enjoyed it.  Tee hee!  So we left our hard-copy of Blue Sky, along with our microphone, with Dad and I sent him a list of characters I thought his voice might work for, along with some audition scripts.  My brother also wants to audition for a part, so we might be hearing from him too.

And dat’s the story!
