(ANOTHER UPDATE - DUE OCTOBER 31st! (That's Halloween, isn't it?)) (UPDATE UPDATE - NOW CLOSED!) FINALLY! Told you I'd do something involving Detector eventually! I just needed to be in the mood to type some stuff up. SO ANYWAYS: Welcome to Nothing But The Truth: Lie Detector's Tale the SERIES! (We'll just call it Nothing But The Truth the SERIES for short. SERIES is capitalized for EMPHASIS!) All directions are inside! Except for some here. I need to explain some things. First off, sorry about the text being really small and really big and really medium-sized. I suggest reading it in full screen if your vision isn't the best, or going into the project. Second, at this point the idea of the show is in-between a PMV style so there wouldn't be too much animation, and a fully-animated thing. As I am not at that level of skill, I'm currently going for PMV style, if you're curious. Third - I'm so sorry about the uneven amount of male and female parts. This is based after a fanfic of mine, after all, and I haven't even introduced some characters in it as of yet (I had more written that I never posted!) I will try my best next time around to do an even split of parts. (9/15) UPDATE: A bit more advice on the voices: - Feel free to use robotic-y effects for Detector. A Spock-esque voice might just be the best, though. It should sound almost completely different when terrified. - Turn your computer volume up to thirty or so when you record - that seems to be ideal for hearing your voice in animation without having to turn your sound up. - Please please PLEASE try to limit background noise. Don't record while someone has a party in the room downstairs, don't record during a fireworks show, etc, just record in a calm, quiet environment. - You don't need to do singing auditions because this isn't that type of series. xD - On the rambling bit, you're allowed to ramble as any canon character in the Wings of Fire books. That means NO OC'S. Unless, say, you're my friend and I know you and your OC's very well and they could fit easily into the WoF universe. That I'd allow. - Don't be afraid to go bold! I like dramatic voices, or quiet voices, or loud voices. Show me what you've got! :D - Also, a quick note on Tern: she's always a bit frazzled, so her voice should be a bit urgent and/or tense, if you know what I mean. Bit of a motormouth. Now, there's a bit more I have to cover below, so read the notes and credits!
This series is set in the future of Pyrrhia, long after the SandWing war of Succession and Darkstalker's return to Pyrrhia (that's how I'm referring to book eight as of current times). Pyrrhia's technology has advanced a heck of a lot, therefore, the NightWings created Detector, a half-robot half-NightWing dragon. He's Pyrrhia's first cyborg dragon, and he's completely emotionless - except for fear. That comes with his mind-reading abilities. (Okay, okay, I'm sorry if he seems like a Gary Stu, but that's where the mind-reading kicks in - he can't read everyone, and he can detect fear, and the fear makes him have spouts of anger because he's afraid.) The fic was originally going to become a whodunit, but I was sure Scratch wouldn't take that, so the main mystery has been toned down some. Don't worry, it hasn't been toned down all the way. Keep in mind that now the dragons have new territories - the NightWings have discovered a new continent which they share with about 70% of the SkyWing population and 50% of the SeaWings. (The rest of the SkyWings and SeaWings are left scattered across the 'main continent'; the original book's Pyrrhia.) The SkyWings have less territory than ever, and the MudWings and RainWings each have a fork in it. SandWing and IceWing territory is the same. Not that i have anything against them, that's just how the geography worked out when I planned it. FINALLY: for more information on the characters and the original fanfic if you're unfamiliar with my story, here's the link: http://wingsoffire.scholastic.com/forums/topics/181164#post_2512606 (it's a kid-friendly site, so Scratch should be able to take it.) Anyways. Have fun with your auditions! Ask me any questions you may have on my profile or the comments! :D ~W-P
