Some more detailed Behind The Scenes (Patreon)
Content
Heya,
We thought we'd bring another instalment of a 'Behind The Scenes' to show you what goes into making naughty audios.
We can't reveal everything, because honestly it kinda takes away the fantasy knowing every step of how content is made.
But a little bit of curtain peeling back can't hurt right?
I'm not gonna waffle on too much. So without further ado...
Generally, the three stages of producing the audios are:
a) WRITING
b) RECORDING
c) EDITING
In the writing stage, we take ideas from bksaudio.com, story requests from the Secret Tier and recommendations for continuing series. We put them to different writers we've worked with previously and some new ones and see which ones they want to do (e.g. Alexis Fire, Ellie, Snooooza, King Kxrina).
I (Rob) write some myself too but generally we've been expanding the number of writers we work to get different POVs and different styles of story into our audios.
We've worked with writers from all over the world. The US, UK, Philippines, Malaysia, France, Brazil, India, South Africa, Finland, China and other countries.
The writers produce a draft and we (Jenn - aka Auntie Kinky, Chlo, Ellie and myself) take a look over it, seeing what the story flow is like, the seduction elements, the plot, if the characters are interesting enough, the dirty talk.
If that is good, things make sense and the scripts are inclusive we move them on.
Beyond this I like to make sure our writers have as much creativity to do what they want within the parameters of what Patreon allows.

At the recording stage we hand the finished scripts off to our VAs, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Chambers, Mr. Gallo and others and they record them.
Sometimes it can be a quick turnaround, 24 hours or so and then sometimes if they are busy with other theatre, play and acting work it can be 1-2 weeks or more.
The put their beautiful voices to good use and...

Once they've recorded they'll send it to us and we check it over for any irregularities in the audio quality or performance aspects. Sometimes, if we need changes we'll ask the VA to re-do certain parts. But generally things are ready for editing after one take.
Most of the time Mr. Robinson is a one-take wonder.
Jenn and Ellie are heavily involved in the quality checking part before it goes to the SFX editors and making sure things in the audio don't totally take you out of the experience e.g. mic blows, large volume changes, crackling, whatever it might be.
Then we pass the audio to the SFX editors and they spin their magic to bring the audio to life. This can be quite a long process depending on the complexity of the sounds required and if certain noises need to be cleaned up. But it's usually anywhere between 6-14 hours of work on this side.
Let's run through an audio to show you...
Example
As an example here is a breakdown of the time taken on an audio we put out a couple of months ago: 'Hall of Harrows'
Audio Link HERE.
Script: Hall of Harrows
Writer: Snoooza
VA: Robinson
- Writing: 16h 26m
- Recording: 2h 07m
- Editing:12h 08m
The TLDR is that Jenn, Ellie and Chlo are the unsung heroes of a lot of what we do at BKS, it's not often always seen from this side of things but yeah just wanted to make that clear and hope this post conveys that.
