It's in its scripting stages right now, but I though I'd mention it here, since I've already told the people on dreamsforthefandom. if you'd like to help or something like that, a remixer would rock, and I've already had people tell me they'd like to voice act. if you're interested in helping writing, that's kay too. but i've already got two of us on it.

[Nemoide]

It seems there are now competing audio dramas!?

I would love to help out but I don't think I'm really cut out for acting or anything like that. But I am a big fan of old-timey radio drama and I'll be interested in hearing the thing when it is done.

THERE'S NEVER ENOUGH NIGHTS AUDIO DRAMAS 8DDDDD

Anyway! Ladyspritzy, if you need any help, with mixing casting, all that, I know a few people on voiceactingalliance.com that will be more than willing to help you =)


Also, I'm totally auditioning for Claris >>

[Nymph]

Cool, I'd like to help in some way, whether VAing or writing (not much of a mixer though).

[Dreamer#96]

lol,before you know it,there will be NiGHTS broadway plays ROFL

[Lady Spritzy]

Well, here's the point it's currently at:
My co-writer, Pickle, is writing away at part of the script.
There are going to be 15 episodes, with a cast of 40 characters in all, with all of the Maren (Cerberus counts as three), Wizeman, the four kids, and five major OC's, and various other minor OC's. Also, there will be a narrorator, making a total of 41 voices.
The first epi is almost written up (when Pickle's done, it should be, and part of epi 2)
If you're interested in helping with writing, drop me a line at my email lonarshadow@yahoo.com, but we'll really only need 1 more writer.
I'm working on OC art, but that'll be a bit 'till that's up.

[Lady Spritzy]

Okays, up to epi 3 is written, and once i send it through pickle, it'll be up to four. i'm thinking of (but am going to get clearence on) once we get the first five epis written, starting looking for a mixer and va's. we need no more writers, since three is plenty, but if you're interested in voice acting/mixing, we'll probably be doing that kind of thing soon.

[Nix Entente]

Dude, I would love to do some voice acting, but how does that exactly work, what with the not-being-in-one-place factor? Does everyone just record their lines seperately?

[Lady Spritzy]

pretty much. then a remixer puts the lines in order to make it sound like they're talking to each other/ add music and sound effects. unfortunately, i don't have the right tools to remix, otherwize i might be doing that. or maybe not, with all the school work i've got to do.

[Lady Spritzy]

All righty, then! Here's a character list for the first five episodes, with audition lines to be up soonish.

NiGHTS
Reala
Elliot
Claris
Will
Helen
Deedee
Danny
Phantasin
Gillwing
Jackle
Chamelon
Queen Bella
Wizeman
Crusul
Diluca
Pammy
Joy
Will's Dad
Claris' Dad
Claris' Mom

*Please note- this is only for the first five episodes. There'll be more characters later in the story- lots more.

[Nix Entente]

Where should we contact to express interest in VAing?

[Lady Spritzy]

eh. telling me's your best bet (since I'm the crazy who thought this was a good idea). as I said, stuff'll be up soon, prolly this week.

[Lady Spritzy]

Okays, few notes for these auditions.
First, if you’re going for NiGHTS, Reala, or any of the four kids, don’t do a British accent unless it sounds/is authentic. And if you put it in your auditions, that means you’re telling me you can commit to that manner of speech.
Second, feel free to audition for several characters. I don’t really care one way or another. Just make sure they’re labeled separately.
Third, this is going up on three sites, so you’re going to have some hefty competition. Also, if you’re on two of those sites and go by two different names, send me the one you want me to credit you with. You know who you are.
Fourth, and this is most important- this is how I want stuff sent to me.
-Please make it free of background static (and if you can avoid having an echo, that’d be great.)
-MP3 format’s preferred. I’ll see about other formats once I get a remixer.
-Name the files charname_your name_line#
-Zip the files up, and send them over to me at lonarshadow@yahoo.com, along with a doc. telling me your name and the character(s) you auditioned for.
-DEADLINE IS DEC. 18th.
Good luck, everyone!

Base story: (Just so you know what’s going on…) Wizeman the Wicked is out to turn the waking world into a waking nightmare again, and the Nightmaren have been either banished to a place called Nihilis or petrified. The four children join with NiGHTS, Reala, Danny, Deedee, Phantasin, and the vengeful Maren to destroy Wizeman.

Characters:

Name: Narrator
Age: Meh. Does is really matter in this case?
Bio: They narrate the story.
Voice type: Any is fine. However, I’d absolutely love if some guy (there’s no way a girl could do it, but ladies are absolutely welcome to audition) could do the cheesy, super-hero-announcer voice. Best example for what I’d want would be the announcer on the Power Pals episode of Fairly Odd Parents.
Audition line 1: NiGHTS: Liberation of Dreams, Episode 1: In The Night…
Audition line 2: They have shown the past, present, and future behind closed eyelids- a personal time machine.
Audition line 3: There is one more dreamer important to this story.
Audition line 4: Little do NiGHTS and company realize that they are being spied upon by most wicked forces... Wizeman the Wicked to be precise!
Audition line 5: What is Wizeman the Wicked’s plan?

Audition line 5: I can’t win, can I?

Voice type: Medium low. I like the va in JoD. Impersonations of that are cool.
Audition line 1: Well, that was easy.
Audition line 2: (Loudly and matter-of-factly) I hope you realize I can hear everything you three are saying.
Audition line 3: However, the only Maren he didn’t petrify and exile were NiGHTS and myself.
Audition line 4: You just happen to have something that should be able to do the job?

Voice type: Med-high. He’s an eccentric kind of guy. Like a wanna-be Jackle.

Audition line 3: If I’m right, they use to be buildings.

Name: Queen Bella
Age: Unknown
Bio: A classy, giant spider who likes firey climates, one of Wizeman’s second six lvl 2 Maren.
Voice type: High and snotty. Like Robotnik from AOSTH, but female.
Audition line 1: That’s why the world has been so dark?
Audition line 2: Oh, the shame of it all! I’ll never be able to show my face again! Carried by a drooling idiot!
Audition line 3: (Mumbling) Thank you, Gillwing.

[Lady Spritzy]

I've gotten Pickle's auditions, as well as SiLK from dreams, and Jackskellinghog from vaa. I like how this is going- keep this stuff coming.

[Lady Spritzy]

Also note, if you're going to audition, escpecially for one of the major character's parts, then you'd best be willing to commit to this for a while, as well as be able to turn this stuff in on time, otherwise, forget it.

[Nymph]

I'll send in an audition sometime this weekend.

[Lady Spritzy]

So sorry that i haven't touched down on this topic for a while.
First, the date'll be extended, due to a lack of enthusiasm/voice actors.
Second, I have found some people to do some of the parts, which I'll list below.
Huzzah, if you're going to try for it, please shoot for having it in by the end of January.

Reala- Jackskellinghog from VAA
Deedee- SiLK from Dreams
Phantasin- SiLK from Dreams
Queen Bella- SiLK from Dreams
Claris' Mother- Pickle
Pammy- Pickle

[Hoban]

Has anybody auditioned for NiGHTS?

[Lady Spritzy]

Has anybody auditioned for NiGHTS?

Yeah, but I'd like more. I'm going to be fairly picky with hers. I'd love more auditions.

[StarsOfCASSiOPEiA]

Yeah, but I'd like more. I'm going to be fairly picky with hers. I'd love more auditions.

I'd be interested in doing NiGHTS, and I'll take a look at the other characters you'll need and ponder them.

[Lady Spritzy]

also, Danny may or may not be taken. Depends on whether or not the person who said he'd like to voice act for him will be able to get a mic or not. Still, the part's up for grabs, but I'd definately perfer a male do Danny.

[Lady Spritzy]

Okay, may I suggest something? If you're going to say you'll try out for a part, please do so and don't make me wait. I'm getting a little impatient waiting. If I don't get enough of a cast to do this thing, I'll probably end up saying forget it.
If you're going to audition, hurry up and do it. Pickle, sorry if we don't get this done. We could always put it up on fanfiction.net or something at the end.

[MagicPickleFairy]

It's fine if we don't get this done! Although we can't put this up on fanfiction.net because they have a rule against scripted work.

I thought that the process was fun, and gave me some experience with the audio drama format. I am fine about the audio drama not getting done.
