Youtube Sketches

As you can see from the post below, we have begun putting sketches up on Youtube, each with their own distinctive covering picture. These pictures exist to set the tone for the sketch and to ensure there is something colourful for people to look at. With this in mind, workshop member Agnes and I set about creating some covering pictures, not for sketches which have been written, but for ones which we hope will be created in the future. However, when we sent them to Holly and Simon, they put their feet down and told us that our artistic talent was insufficient. Apparently there is a great divide forming between those in the workshop who can draw and those who can't.

In any case, Aggie and I have collected together our drawings and we submit them to you now for judgement. Remember, these sketches have not been created yet, we only have names. Vote for your favourite, which will then be recorded for your listening pleasure. Act quickly, before the arty types catch wind of this post and take it down. I'll put a snippet of imagined dialogue underneath each.
