Deadline & Production
Remember Remember the 15th of December.
Hmmm... Feels a tad off, but I'll work on it. XD
Anyway, hello everyone, it's been awhile. Thank you all for your patience!
Firstly, apologies for the lack of updates (yet again), sadly, some personal stuff came up in my life that took me away from production of this for a hot minute. Even had to take a break from social media (honestly, I'm glad I did) for a month to reduce the amount of stress & anxiety I've been under.
Personal matters aside, though, today is indeed the final day of the deadline. Considering we're at just shy of 1200 auditions (the count is 1195 as I'm typing this), I'd say that's enough to sort through.
As you can all see, about half the cast has been found. And yes, I found someone to handle the audio & the music! I couldn't be happier!
And some good news! Production has already begun on the first installment. It will be an adaptation of the prologue/prequel ("POWERLESS") I had written some time ago. It's been going well and we even did a table/cold read! It was breathtaking and honestly, I couldn't have been prouder.
The plan is still to release it either sometime this month, or next month at the latest. I'm also prepping for the next installments even now.
In the meantime, I'll be going through the rest of the auditions and filling the rest of these spots in the cast.
I'd like to thank each and every single one of you who have auditioned for this project. Again, it means the world to me that you took the time, made the effort and showed me each of your interpretations of these characters.
As I've been going through each audition, I've seen how each of you approach the characters. It never ceases to amaze me. It always makes me smile and brings me more joy than any of you will ever realize.
This project for me, is the culmination of 15 years of work, (SO. MUCH. WRITING.) From biographies of characters, to character arcs & story arcs, to dividing this project into multiple parts, to pacing, and everything else involved, including the point we're at now, with casting and bring the visuals & sounds to this project.
Getting to this point, has made every year I put all that work into this, more than worth it.
So again, thank you.
I appreciate all the love, the support, the encouragement, the auditions, even the questions! Love it all.
That being said, from now on, the updates might be more along the lines of "monthly". Or every two months, depending how everything goes, and if there's anything substantial to note in the updates.
With that, thank you all to everyone who's thrown their hat into the ring, and I'll be in touch!
Until next time, peace out Farsiders!

PS - And yes, to all of you who applied for the crew positions, audio, video, composer, etc. This applies to you wonderful lot as well. Thank you all.
