Paper Jeremy: The Thousand Year Door

Project Overview

Paper Jeremy: The Thousand Year Door is a remastered animation based off a comic series I made back in Middle School.

This is gonna be releasing the same day the Switch Remake releases, which will be May.23.2024!!!

If you're iffy about joining, you can check out my recently created animation! It's a Christmas Special!!

-Story-

Back when Jeremy and Christopher lived on Doom Island, Jeremy gets ahold of a copy of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. After a mysterious machine accident, they both get warped into The Thousand Year Door Universe. Jeremy and Christopher now have to find the Crystal Stars and use their power to hopefully return back home!

-Origins-
Back in 6th Grade, I made an 8 Episode Comic Series called "Paper Jeremy: The Thousand Year Door", and I consider it the worst thing I've ever created. The writing is awful, unoriginal, it copies off other existing things, my art style was still pretty questionable at the time, and it involves a TON, and I mean a TON, of simping. If you're really interested, you can check out the video of me reading the 1st Issue linked right here! (It was EXTREMELY painful) https://youtu.be/htAdJ1mImsI?si=NIMRcglz3BOI3VO1

With the remaster of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door coming to Switch this May, I decided to remake this comic into what I truly wanted it to be, and I'll be doing that through an animation!!

-Rules-

I'd like you all to have a good mic, and the ability to manage your time. Also, make sure to do your lines in (AAA,BBB,CCC) Format. For example:

You have multiple lines, so you do the first one 3 times, then the second one 3 times, etc. All with different takes of saying it. Make sure each take sounds different and unique.

Make sure to leave your Discord in your audition, so I have some way of messaging you!

With that, you're ready to go! Happy Auditioning!!

Latest Updates

  • Extended Deadline + 1st Wave Complete!

    The Deadline has been extended by 10 days, but I WILL be selecting people I have in mind for specific roles, so no worries there!! This Animation is gonna be worth it, just you wait!

    A Discord Invite will be sent in the upcoming days. Even if you didn't get a role, you could still join the Discord Server for updates and other stuff that may happen! Just message me if you wanna join and I'll send you an invite!

Give her a voice you'd think would fit, preferably one that sounds cute, but still mature.

  • female young adult
  • Give it up! I ain't telling Goomba SQUAT to you creeps! So back off!

  • Tell me about it. I already HATE it here! There are freaks and weirdos EVERYWHERE! It’s a real mess! Actually…how’d you two get stuck here anyways?

  • Well, I guess I’ll believe you, but…why Rogueport of all places? Anywhere else would have been like, a MILLION times better.

I'd also allow a unique voice you think would fit, as long as it's around her voice range!

Voice description:

  • medium high
  • Well, you know being a princess is tough and VERY tiring, so I said to myself: “You know what? I deserve to go on Holiday!” And so I did!

  • YEAH!!...Until Toadsworth insisted that he come along to watch over me. Ugh, it’s like he’s my babysitter, it’s annoying…

  • ooo, treasure? That sounds exciting!!...oh. But, it’ll be a little difficult for me to go and find it myself…hey! Maybe I can get Mario and Luigi!! They’re always up for adventure!!

I imagine his voice would sound kinda like Yogi Bear, but make it a bit deeper.

If you got a voice you think would fit, then leave your own impression!


 

  • Oh, come off it, you airhead! I know it’s tough for you, but don’t play dumb with me!

  • HEY!! What do you think you’re doing, CHUMP?! You trying to get in the way of my plans?!

  • Princess! Oh, Princess, where did you go?!

  • What are the odds that we’d bump into each other in this sort of place, hm? Ho ho!

  • You know how headstrong she can be, I just assumed she’d be back, but it’s not looking like that’ll be the case…but luckily, you two are here now

  • But, if you’re REALLY desperate, the closest place here is a town called Rogueport. It’s not the most elegant place on earth, but it’s land.

  • Are you two quite sure you want to disembark here? I…did tell you all the sordid tales about Rogueport on our way here, did I not?
