WC:UT Animated (UPDATED 11/27, NEW POLL)

[Clearsky]

Hi yes hello!
I've just started working on the screenplay for a new project
A WC:UT Animation :3c
Hopefully, what I'll wind up with is an ~10 minute episode logging the life of the protagonist, Hollykit, in the version of the Clans portrayed in WC:UT.
If absolutely everything goes according to plan, this will be a full series with a plot, involving every aspect of the game such as romance, living in another Clan, seasons, visiting the Moonstone, and starting a rogue Clan. The two main characters may even journey into the world of the kittypets at some point.
As I'm sure you can imagine, a project of this scale is going to take a lot of work. All in all, I wouldn't be shocked if it took me a year to finish just this first episode. In addition, I'm not going to have an editing program to combine the animation with the audio until Christmas, so I won't be able to tie in the sound until then.

You're probably wondering, however, why I'm bothering to post this here. I have a few reasons.
1. To ask for Falcon Development 's permission.
2. Get word out there and spread publicity.
3. To motivate myself to keep working and not just drop the project and give up.
4. I'll need voice actors.

That's right, you heard me. I need voice actors. I'll be posting this information on my deviantArt page, as well (@gallowscatibrator), to try and grab as many people as possible, but I'm definitely making sure to have it here. I'll update the characters you can audition for and what their lines are as I write them into the screenplay. Here are some to start out:

HOLLYKIT/PAW. Female.
Lines:
(Talking to Shinefur)"Where am I?"
(In response to seeing Highrock) "Woah..."
(Talking to Cloudleaf)"Treekit's belly hurts."
(In response to a crazy story) "Yeah, right! Not even a kit would fall for that!"

SHINEFUR. Female. 30 moons old
Lines:
(First noticing Hollykit) "Oh! Look! Hollykit is awake! Come over here, Hollykit."
(Answering Hollykit's question) "What’s that? You don’t know where you are? Oh, little one, you’re in ThunderClan’s nursery, tucked away safely in the forest. ThunderClan will need good little kits like you in the future! But enough talk from me. Why don’t you go play with Treekit?"
(Responding to Hollykit's comment) "What’s that? Treekit isn’t feeling well? I’m sure that Cloudleaf has some herbs for his upset stomach. Why don’t you go talk to her? You can find her over by her den, underneath the big rock."
(Talking to Hollykit about Treekit) "Oh, he’s feeling better now? Excellent! Thank you Hollykit, you’ve been a huge help."

TREEKIT/PAW. Male.
Lines:
(This one is really long but it's vital to me deciding who to cast as this character! Sorry.) "Hello! My name is Treekit. I wanna be a big warrior like Shinefur is when I grow up! I’ve heard the elders talk about their days as warriors- it sounds exciting! Battles, hunting, exploring, and leaving the camp. But we can’t leave the camp yet ‘cause we’re kits and they won’t let us. I’ve tried. They say it’s ‘cause of a lot of reasons- Twoleg monsters on the Thunderpath north of here, ShadowClan spies, scary rivers… maybe I don’t wanna be a warrior anymore. Oh, my stomach hurts… I don’t feel so good… could you tell Shinefur for me?"
(Eating chervil) "Eww... it tastes nasty… but my stomach isn’t hurting anymore! Thanks a ton! I’ll bet Shinefur wants to hear how helpful you’ve been."
(In response to a crazy story) "Are you serious?!"

CLOUDLEAF. Female. 33 moons old.
Lines:
(First noticing Hollykit) "Oh, hello little one! I’m Cloudleaf, the medicine cat of ThunderClan. Do you see this cave here, behind me? It’s my den. And the large rock that it’s built into is where our leader Skystar gives speeches to the Clan. But you must be here for a reason-"
(Responding to Hollykit's comment) "Oh, your friend Treekit has an upset stomach? Here, I’ll give you some herbs to take to him. See that leaf over by the pond? That’s a leaf of the chervil plant, which will help your friend."

FIERCEPAW. Male.
Lines:
(Telling an unbelievable story) "It was this big! I swear!"
(Defending an unbelievable story) "I’m not lying!"

GREYSTORM. Female.
(During a training session) "Well, well, Hollypaw, you look ready for a challenge or two. Today, I’m going to teach you how to hunt, and how to fight. We will begin with the hunting lesson."

SKYSTAR. Male.
Lines:
(A warrior ceremony) "From this day forward, you will be known as Hollystorm, for your determination and loyalty."

JADEPELT. Female.
Lines:
(In response to a troubling comment) "Do you think it’s a sign of trouble to come?"
(Over her shoulder at someone being annoying) "Nobody cares, Silverstone!"
(Concerned for a friend) "…Stay safe, okay?"

SILVERSTONE. Male.
Lines:
(In response to a "bad omen") "I think it’s a sign that he ate a bad fish!"

ROSEHEART. Male.
Lines:
(Responding to a question about his bad feeling) "Like… like in the future, something really bad is going to happen, and the event that set it in motion has just taken place."
(In response to being asked to elaborate) "I just… you know what, nevermind. Just forget it."
(In response to being asked if he's okay) "Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. You should get some sleep."
(In response to being asked to stay safe) "Yeah. Right. I will. ...I will..."

Also, just because I can't add the audio to the animation doesn't mean I can't do anything else! I can do lip syncing just by listening, and I can edit the audio just fine in a seperate program- the only thing I can't do is actually stitch audio and video together.

Thank you for your time! I hope you're as excited for this project as I am =^-^=

[Falcon Development]

This would be awesome!! Best of luck with your project.

[fanfictionmachine🦄]

Can I audition for Hollykit or Shinefur? (Also, how?)

[Clearsky]

Falcon: Aaaaaaaaa thank you so much! That means a lot =^-^=

fanfictionmachine🦄 : well I think the easiest thing to do would be to head over to vocaroo.com! It's a totally safe website where you can either upload a recording, or record directly to the website. After that, just send me the link that they give you with your audition, and I can listen to it as many times as I want, and download it to put it in the episode if I want to!

Also, I will point out that I'm looking for the best actors, not the best microphones. If all you have is a cruddy pre-installed computer mic but you want to audition, that's fine! I've worked with audio clips before, and I know how to edit them and get all the background noise and fuzz out. Don't worry about your mic quality; worry about your voice quality!

[Clearsky]

Progress Update: I've finished the screenplay for the first episode! This is more of a prologue, though, really, so it's a bit shorter than the others will be, probably resting between 5 and 7 minutes long.

[fanfictionmachine🦄]

Okay! Thanks!

[Clearsky]

Yeah! Feel free to ask me any questions you may have ^^

[Citrine]

I'll probably try out some voice acting if I have time during the week pfft. It sounds cool, though.

I mean I'll have an accent, but ya know

[Clearsky]

Aaaaaa that would be amazing! And thank you! ^u^
that reminds me I'm learning german... and it's going Pretty Good i think so yeah :D

[fanfictionmachine🦄]

I may or may not have just remembered this existed... are you still doing this? And if so are you still looking for voice actors? Clearsky

[Maplemask]

Holy cow, uh, in all the chaos of high school, I totally forgot too. But I'll definitely be picking this back up and trying to get a large portion of animating done this summer, so, yes, I'm definitely still looking for voice actors..... if you're still interested four months later v.v
UPDATE: Oh my gosh
I can't believe this
The script was on my old computer and I didn't move it to the cloud
I lost everything
aaaaaaAAAAA
but!!!!!! thanks to posting the VA lines here, I can probably piece together most of it. And I remember the basic story arc, so. There's that. Anyways, because I'm using a different account now, I'm gonna make a new thread for the animation, alright? So just...don't even bother replying here. Somebody can lock this thread if they want to. It's basically useless now. Thanks! <3
