Recorded by Arizal
Recorded by Arizal is an American animated web series created by Yssa Badiola. The first episode was released on July 13, 2020. The series premiered Rooster Teeth's website for members, moving to other platforms and becoming free-to-watch a week later. Badiola stated that the show is for young adults coming of age and incorporates her own life experience. The series was intended as a four-part prelude to a full series.
The series follows the story of Arizal, a 16-year-old Pinoy girl and straight A student who is about to pursue her desired career, to become a Record Keeper. The question remains if she can leave Maktaba, a cloistered city-state, and create records in the wide world. Through a set of vlogs, she ponders whether she can undertake this task, as part of this entry of self-discovery, and head into the world, explaining life beyond the city's limits to those living within the city. Arizal serves as the protagonist and the "audience's lens into this world".
Director Yssa Badiola first envisioned the show in 2017.[dead link] She hoped that the prelude helped audiences embrace and story. Arizal's name is derived from Filipino nationalist José Rizal. Badiola's own Filipino heritage shaped the show. She noted that Josh Kazemi and Jordan Cwierz were helpful in development of the show. Badiola pitched the show to Rooster Teeth executives and developed a full animatic of the show so she could convince them to support the show. According to Badiola, there were a "lot" of LGBTQ characters in a "show proper" originally pitched and the series was set thousans of years in the future on Earth.
Badiola's idea coincided with Joshua Kazemi pitching a live-action series about "a female vlogger in a remote setting" in January 2018, and Rooster Teeth encouraged him to come together with Badiola, with both beginning to work together on the show after that.[dead link] Others who worked on the show include: Tess Richards, who worked on color, light, and detail of the backgrounds; Lauren Crozier, who designed the background; Al McClelland, Jr., who worked on the storyboards; supervising producer Maggie Tominey; producer Minni Clark; sound designer Alena Lecorchick; and re-recording mixer Philip Spann.
The show was originally promoted in a six-second clip by Rooster Teeth on January 15, 2020, under the name "Record Keeper". The name was later changed as it was owned by another company. Rooster Teeth shared the first promo for the show on June 23. The same day, Badiola shared character designs of Arizal created for the show, and confirmed that Arizal is a Filipina.
Rooster Teeth shared the second promo for the show on June 29. Badiola hosted a Comic-Con@Home panel for the show in July.
In July 2020, Badiola confirmed that Recorded by Arizal was a four-part prelude to a longer show, as suggested by fellow Rooster Teeth writer and director Joe Nicolosi. Badiola felt that the prelude is a "great way" to do world-building. The lowercase Roman numerals in the episode titles intended to demonstrate that it is an introduction to the show. In July 2020, Badiola noted that she suffered several panic attacks during the show's production and expressed her concerns about the show's future. Kazemi wrote that the show became "more relatable" during the COVID-19 pandemic because more people are living in a world where "streaming from home, talking into webcams, and staying in their rooms".
On September 21, 2020, Badiola hosted a RTX panel with Christine Marie Cabanos, Joshua Kazemi, and Kdin Jenzen, the latter who was moderating.[dead link] In the panel, in September 2020, Kazemi described how Arizal values "physical things," said it was a "blast" to write the text messages between Arizal and her friends, and how the relationship Arizal had with the camera changed over the episodes.
