Late post is late

You'd think by now I'd be up to speed with these blog entries. Anyway, Episode 9 is live and loaded, with a snazzy cinematic intro too:



Watch and be amused.

Watch to the end for a "cool" announcement thing.

Plus, I've been playing Hitman: Blood Money again. That game is so frikkin boss, one of the best PS2 game's made and Hitman 5's been announced!!! *Is super happy*

On a completely related note...

Preview-aview-aview-(aview!)

So yeah, now that I'd properly started on Silent Hill: Despoiled Heart I thought I'd post some stills (and give people a reason to follow the blog XD). All these from the first minute of the first episode.

Also I'm still looking for voice actors, if you'll look to your right, there's a shiney link that'll take you to the blog post containing all the information on voice acting for the project.

Thank you for your time.

Remastered (pffft)

Episode 1 remastered of The Citizens Mind is live! By remastered I mean, decent aspect ratio, slightly better good joke to bad joke ratio and brand new "I can actually see sh*t!" video quality.



Plus, the finale of Being Human was epic! Loved it. I gleefully expressed my love of the show in an earlier entry. The finale did blatantly set them up for a fourth series, which is certainly nothing to complain about even if Mitchell won't be there to grace the show in a storm of badassery.

Go forth and discuss!!!

New Project

And thus, I announce another upcoming project. Alongside my Citizens Mind series, I shall be making a Silent Hill fan-machinima, Silent Hill: Despoiled Heart. I started out making music videos which I liked, then I obviously started my mind series (I'll get round to that later in this blog entry) but I've always wanted to do a proper, narrative machinima project. Ages ago I had a script and a vision for a series that started out called "DAWN" then changed to "Dilucolo" set in the Half Life 2 universe. I however lacked the motivation and proper planning to go through with it. But now, with abit more experience and something better than Windows Movie Maker, I feel I'm ready to crack at it, especially as I've gradually become a Silent Hill fan. This project will run alongside The Citizens Mind so don't worry tiny audience!

But, what I do lack is voice actors however. There aren't many characters as Silent Hill is a series which works best when you only have several well developed characters, Christophe Gans. So I'm now officially taking in auditions. Bellow are listed the types of voice roles available, if you want to audition for one or more of them, send me at least 3 lines in several moods (happiness, surprise, anger, ect). You will only be picked for one role unless I don't get enough actors to fill all the roles. Sent them to me at TheUltimateGentleman@gmail.com. If you're picked I will keep you in my contacts and email you if I need lines. Prepare for long periods of silence from me, my life contains stuff other than filming of course.

You obviously need to have a decent quality, working microphone, a means by which to record your voice and a voice that has actually broken thank you.

Characters:

-Woman, mid 30s to early 40s, considers herself quite elegant and feels she has "refined tastes" (think Blanche from Streetcar Named Desire)
-Young man, early 20s, slight nervous stutter
-Young woman, mid 20s, normal mostly but can get hot tempered, can get quite manic
-Woman, late 20s to early 30s, compassionate and civil person
-NEW ROLE: Male, late teens - early 20's, mainly minor role, preferably with a british accent (as in, any area of the British Isles, this includes gordie, scouse, scottish, ect)

I'm already voicing another character and I'm using my regular accent. I'll try not to discriminate on accent but it would be nonsensicle to have a cast of characters from several continents in a small town in New England.

As for The Citizens Mind, before episode 9 comes round I'm remaking episodes 1-3 as, quite honestly they are awful. But afterwards, the series will continue!

And on that note; me, JaSoR122 (Declans Mind), SwedenSpeedway (Jimmys Mind) and Jala1250 (Mind of a Marine) are going to be holding a Q & A over skype. So ask us stuff at LesserMinds@yahoo.com!

Now if you could close blog entries with music scores, mine would undoubtedly be this:


EDIT - 19/4

As you'll see above, after recent edits to the story one of the characrters has been written out. Apologies to anyone who was planning to audition for the role but over the course of writing in terms of the story the character has been made redundant.
