Audition Thread for CT Flash Series

[Daniel Krispin]

Did you get my email?

[teh Schala]

Yes, I did...  Thought I replied, but guess not.  I'll get on it.

Hey hey, Is Ozzie taken? XD

Anyways, I think if you sound like Scott McNeil (Piccolo: even if DBZ sucks...). YOU DESERVE Magus' role.

How long are yougiving yourself to make the first episode, roonie-de-jake?

[teh Schala]

Go ahead and try for Ozzie, he's wide open.

*downloads a wav of Piccolo*

Hmm...yeah, kinda like that.  Good example, Ace.

[asw]

I auditioned too =)
Sounds like a very interesting project ^_^

We are hoping to release the first episode by September 29th, which we thought was the anniversary of the game's release.  As it turns out, according to old posters and such, it was September 1st.  (Check out this poster on CuteLucca's site.)

Anyway, we're basically getting our "system" set up for the moment.  Getting the sprite libraries ready, and finishing the last bit of script for Episode I.  After that it'll go to the Flashers and we can also focus more on the voice recordings.  Lucca recorded her first scene about 3 days ago, in fact.  But once all that basic getting-started stuff is done, then we'll be able to figure out just how often episodes can be released.

Any hope of having it ready for Sept. 1st then? Maybe it got delayed at the last minute or something...I sure as heck don't know, I was way too young when it first came out. *shrugs*

But anyway, I'm getting really excited, I really can't wait to see the completed first episode. ^_^ Jake-A-Roonie, did you get my e-mail?

[teh Schala]

I'm sure I did...  I think I was just delayed in responding 'cause I was trying to make up my mind about what you sent me.  I'll get to it, I swear.

So are the auditions done and set?  (In terms of the characters like Crono, Marle, etc that would be in the first episode).  More importantly, can you tell me if I got the part for Lara?

[teh Schala]

Auditions are NOT done, and I still need a Gina and a Taban.  STILL.

And there was never even a second thought with you getting the part for Lara...  You got it, no sweat!

[DeweyisOverrated]

Hey, another question.  Is this flash movie acted out by sprites?  In the beginning I assumed some hand-drawn stuff with complicated animation, but later posts seem to be telling me otherwise.  I can't seem to find a clear answer about it.

[teh Schala]

Sprites.  There might be a few sequences that use something more detailed though...

[tamashii]

I like the idea of there being mostly sprites, since it would be almost like watching the game be played through, though I'm still curious to see how that will work out with voice-overs rather than text boxes. And non-synthy music. And...stuff.

Will it be a top-down view like in the game, or more of a side-scrolling view? (Or is that...still confidential? )

[teh Schala]

Mostly top-down as if you're watching the game itself, though I DO plan to have a little side-scrolling stuff.

I agree that it would play out a little weird watching sprites with voices (cite Lunar: Eternal Blue as an example), but if you give them plenty of motion (and fortunately there's a lot of animation to be used), it'll flow quite nicely.
