Artist Needed!

This blog looks so boring!

I’ve talked to a few people about doing some art for me, but no-one has delivered.  If you can help or know someone who can, send them my way.

I’m looking for a banner, an 8.5” x 11” poster to hang in the window of your flgs, a wallpaper, and a t-shirt design.  Here’s the catch.  I want something that’s NOT going to violate Games Workshop’s I.P. but will still get across the idea of the podcast. 

So what do you got?  I want to see it.

I cannot pay for this, and I know that anything worthwhile needs to be paid for, so here is my offer.  T-shirt revenues.  Post the design on Café Press (or some other similar site) and you get the money… whatever you can get.  The link to it will be posted here.

Auditions for The Emperor’s Fading Light

Auditions for The Emperor’s Fading Light
All Male Cast (?)

Submissions must me in .mp3 format. Submit one file per part being auditioned for. If you are auditioning for multiple parts at same time, please submit separate files. Title the file you are submitting “[name of character] [space] [your initials].mp3”. So of you are auditioning for the part of Hamlet and your name is John Doe, the file would be called hamlet jd.mp3.

While recording, begin the file by clearly stating your name and the part you are auditioning for. Then say the line number you are reading and read the line. When finished, move on to the next line if there is a next line. If you wish to do multiple takes of a single line for the sake of trying alternative voices or accents please do so, but limit the file to 4 such takes. If you want to try more than 4, please submit additional files. If you are submitting more than one file for a part, please number the files (hamlet jd1.mp3 as an example). Also please consider that the quality of the recording you submit, in addition to the voice used, is going to be taken into consideration when casting these roles. Any electronic alteration, modulation, etc. done to voices for making them sound more alien or robotic will be done in post production, so there is no need for you to worry about that. Just deliver the lines as best you are able.

Auditions are due by July 21, 2011.

Email submissions to emperorsfadinglight@gmail.com with the name of the character being auditioned for in the message text. Any additional information you wish to provide in the body of the email will be welcome.

All the characters in this drama are Guardsmen.  The parts are being divided into 2 basic groups: Officers and Enlisted.  One set of lines are offered for each group and individual parts will be distributed after they are received.

OFFICERS:  (note: one officer may be female if I get a really good one)

Line 1:  A commander who can’t defend his own strategies isn’t worthy of carrying the Emperor’s banner.

Line 2: What the hell was that? I don’t see anything through the auspex.

Line 3: Wait a second, I see something. Enemy infantry one-one-three! Engage! Engage!

Line 4: Engage at will! All tanks are valid! Glory to the Emperor!

ENLISTED:

Line 1: As long as we can get out of this tank. Emperor’s

black bones, it’s hot in here!

Line 2: Looks like we’ve nearly taken care of the rebels, doesn’t it sir?

Line 3: (panicing) One alpha two is down!

Line 4: (SCREAMING LIKE HIS HANDS ARE ON FIRE) My hands, my hands!!!

Line 5: (Ad lib chearing) Awesome! All right! We did it! For the Emperor! Target Destroyed!
