Hello everyone!

Seeing all these sounds being uploaded here every day made me think to myself:"How could all these wonderful samples be put to use and displayed in an interesting way?" and then I came up with an idea which may or may not be any good or indeed of interest to anyone.
How about using existing (and newly created) sounds available here to put together some nice narratives. Not like your regular audiobooks and such but more of a "movie without visuals" kind of thing with detailed ambience and everything required to bring the story to life (you might say it's just a radio drama really and you would be sort of right).
Of course, it would be even better if it could be combined with visuals(to create community animated shows and such).

Things needed to do this:
- voice actors - people who are willing to either narrate the story or play some of the characters
- music and sound effects (obviously) - to pad out the story as the narrator would only tell certain parts of it which would be either too difficult or impossible to depict accurately with just sound
- actual text/script (also obvious) - there must be some texts freely available on the web OR some of you may have or know someone who has written a nice little story that could be made into this kind of a story.

Well, all of the above is obvious really but nonetheless worth mentioning.
If you have any ideas/suggestions please post them here.
Thanks in advance!

Best regards!

It wasn't a stupid idea at all.
