Interesting.

I would think it would be easier/better (from an acting standpoint, not a logistical one) to record with the actors actually playing out the scenes in real time together, rather than everyone recording their own lines in isolation, though I get the impression the latter is standard for podcast radio plays. (Though the group I'm closest to being affiliated with is largely an exception to that rule & have their roots in live theatre.)

The whole question of how much to make podfic like a play vs. like a book-on-tape is an interesting one, too (though I hear there are also multi-actor books-on-tape). Because even a story with dialogue doesn't usually break down quite so neatly as an actual play, in terms of which character is speaking/acting/referred to in a given sentence/paragraph.

(As an actor--though I've never done voice-acting before--I've got podficcing on my radar as something it might be fun to get into someday; though I'm a little balky about the need for equipment and recording clue and so forth, and also see previous comment about having no time to get into new things right now. :) )
