So................................................ Any updates?
Tom is the heart of the group, but he is busy trying to fight off the ninja robot pirates earn good grades. So, we are just hacking away at the script for 2 months or so until he gets back. woooooot
Originally the script deadline was going to be March 5th (tomorrow, in this time zone) but has that changed now?
Still, at least we do have a beginning-to-end script of the first chapter now!
We pretty much haz it done, we just need to cut it down so it's not half an hour long. I'm not the one to cut it as I think it is too amazing to get rid of anything.

Or you could just get the voice actors to speak the lines extremely fast to try and compress that half-an-hour into 10-minutes-or-so .
BTW, am I "hired" for De Singe and/or Human LeChuck?
Your DeSinge is awesome, you definitely get my vote.
LeChuck's a difficult one to cast because more people have auditioned for him (both human and dead/undead forms). But since Tom reset the list, we've only had one audition for each LeChuck form. I personally am happy to go with these, but if any of the originals re-audition then there will suddenly be a lot more competition.
But if you get a thumbs up from Tom for your DeSinge audition, then congrats on that one!
Well, I'm pretty much stuck for another... eh... a while. So I can only comment here. I can't listen to anything, see the Wave, etc... So I'll have to trust your judgement.

I'm honestly not sure. I hope it isn't. On the other hand I'm not even sure we have enough animators.
I'm starting we might be better off doing it as a radio-play kind of thing. Just cut off the visual dimension. But then we'd need to cut off some of the gags of course.
Ok, I've been practicing the voices of the intro to chapter 1 of Tales, and I think I'm doing quite well with Guybrush and Lechuck (I'm not gonna audition for Elaine, though, I would still sound like a guy). I'll upload some narration things, even if its in the form of a youtube video, I'll do it.I'll just have to make sure I'm not at my grandparents at that time.I'll do anything to keep this thing alive.
P.S. Damn! Stan's taken! Oh well, maybe next time there's a flash film then.
Edit: Ok, I've basically recorded some lines from MI 1 and 2, doing different voices (except Elaine) like Largo, Mad Marty and Bob to name a few. I've also got my semi-main audition for Guybrush on there. This is all in the form of a video. I'm uploading them to youtube now, and I'll give a link when it's done.
I was just talking with Avistew a few weeks ago about brining it back as well.
Here is the finalized list of characters in Chapter 1, along with a note if they'll appear again and need to do more lines in the future:

But we have a problem with animating and voicing a 30-minute movie when there are 4 more to make after that :P
Is it really that long Ribs? Cool!?
Argh! The ninja robot pirates are here!
Tom out- hiya!
You have a point.
BTW, am I "hired" for De Singe and/or Human LeChuck?
I haven't been involved in these decisions in the past as Ribs and Tom made the call. But I think your Marquis is great so you've got my vote for him.
I'm a writer, I never expect my view to be the one that is seen publically (As was seen in the X-Files episode 'Musings of A Cigarette Smoking Man').
I say Tom and the animators should choose voice actors.
PS: It's not really half an hour long, but Scene Two is too long but it is my baby and I shall never cut it at all.
I'll send down a helicopter to help you out. Remember, pepper spray works miracles!
I'll cut stuff out, if no one else will. I will make sure to not cut out anything importent and funny.
Your DeSinge is awesome, you definitely get my vote.
LeChuck's a difficult one to cast because more people have auditioned for him (both human and dead/undead forms). But since Tom reset the list, we've only had one audition for each LeChuck form.

I really doubt it, but maybe just maybe... Me?

(First and second audition. I think the second one is better)...
Since we don't have many voice actors yet, I'll audition for a few minor characters too. http://www.filefront.com/15755041/some%20characters.zip
woot
It was bad quality anyway, sour grapes and all that jazz
