Not Quite Dead

Join show creator Eira as he answers a selection of questions from you, the weird and wonderful audience of Not Quite Dead! In this first part of the Q&A, Eira will focus on answering questions surrounding the role of vampiric literary traditions in shaping the show, and on the mechanics of the vampires in the world of the show.

Hey folks! Something a bit different this week. Last year, I got quite a lot of interest in the idea of me talking about my relationship with existing vampire media, queer readings of those vampires, and how those things contributed to the creation of Not Quite Dead. Mild Spoiler Warnings for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Twilight, Dracula, Interview with the Vampire and Underworld. Based Vampirification is me discussing the various pieces of vampire media that set me down the path which would eventually lead to the conception of Not Quite Dead. It involves tenuous leaps, stretched interpretations and deeply personal readings of the texts in question, all informed by many years of academic literary study and not-so-academic vampire brain rot.

Part One of the Season Three Q&A covers questions about vampire biology and also about everyone's favourite Not Quite French vampire, Neige!

The third and final part of the NQD S3 Q&A! I talk about voice acting and performance, sound, and answer some more personal questions about my relationship with the show. Plus, there's an announcement at the end!
