Living In A Wasteland

Project Overview

Hey guys my name is Blake Lewis and I am creating an original animated series called Living In A Wasteland. The series will be uploaded on my company channel, AlphaPics TV. Click here to view the channel (although there may not be any content as of now). I will be serving as the director and producer of the series.

SERIES SUMMARY:

The series is set in the future, in year 2234. It takes place after World War IV. During the war, all countries resorted to using advanced chemical and nuclear weapons that ended up killing off almost the entire population. The US was the only country that was able to build a proper shelter that was capable of actually keeping people alive. But  most of the task force in charge of filling up the shelter was caught up in the crossfires of the war. The only member of the task force that survived was the leader of the force, Fiana (fee-ah-n-uh). She got scared and hid herself in the shelter instead of going with her team to recruit the designated citizens for the shelter. Citizens hiding near the shelter stumbled upon it and snuck in for safety. Upon entering, everyone is sprayed with gas that puts them in a long term sleep. The sleep lasts for exactly 3.5 years, 3 hours, 30 minutes, and 30 seconds and the gas allows the body to rest without need for any sustenance. There were a total of 353 people that made it into the shelter. The only issue is that even though the shelter was enough to keep the people alive, it didn't stop them from suffering the side effects of the radiation and chemicals. Everyone was horribly disfigured and certain groups of people were left with a different "nex" (nex is the nickname for traits or abilities people gained as a result of the radiation and chemicals). The nex's include the super strength nex, the super hearing nex, the nature Nex, the luminance nex, speed nex, the camouflage nex, and the all baring nex. Fiana is the only one with the all baring nex (whoever has the all baring nex has the abilities of every other nex). Fiana knows about a hidden part of the shelter that contains a radiation neutralizing chamber. The chamber reverses any physical disfigurement due to radiation but it doesn't take away the nex. She uses it all for herself and lies to everyone saying that she wasn't affected physically by the radiation like everyone else was. Because Fiana is the most beautiful and powerful of the people she naturally becomes the leader of the Apiens (the name given to all the people left). Basically the plot develops when a group of 6 rebels rise up against her because they realize they're is a secret to how she's maintaining her normal form. They all have a common goal of discovering how to return to their normal form and to have a democratic system of government instead of a tyranny. In the end the leader of the rebels sacrifices himself to take down Fiana. The rest of the rebels discover the way to return everyone to their normal form and the second in command of the rebels becomes the new leader of the Apiens. Instead of leading as a tyrant, the new leader rules as a democratic ruler.

  • ATTENTION ALL WRITERS

    I am so so SO sorry about such a long wait, but over a year later into this project, we can start production! Aren't you excited? I know I am. And with the beginning of production comes the writing of course. With that being said, I have an outline of the plot for the first episode and I will have an outline of episode 2 very shortly. I will send the outline and a list of things I want included. Your role as the writer is to 1. Create a fascinating and interesting story that is 2. consistent and entertaining while 3. staying true to creators vision and 4. be able to do all this while working with the other writers. I really am excited and looking forward to working with these talented writers and everyone else I was lucky enough to have audition. Everyone prepare to get working XD.

    Please contact me at [email protected] for more info on the Tyranny Of A Wasteland project. Please email me your name, username on the site, and the role you were casted on for the Tyranny Of A Wasteland project.
  • Project being restored

    Guys I'm sorry i took a several month break from this project, there were other things that had to be dealt with but now I am back and able to devote way more attention and time to it. As most of you can probably see I have already started final casting, me and my partners will complete the pot and story board for the first episode and then submit it to the writers so we can start developing the first episode.
  • Video Editors

    I have decided that the animator will have the role of video editing the actual episodes. But whoever i cast as video editor will be in charge of making promotional videos for the series.
  • To all voice actors

    Seeing as though I have yet to find an audio engineer, I kindly ask that all the voice actors ensure that they edit and clean up their audio before sending it to the video editor. I understand if you can't and I don't expect everything to be perfect, just try your best!

You get to decide how the main characters will be drawn but keep in mind each nex has specific physical traits. People with Nature Nex have hooves for feet and plants growing out of their body. People with the Super Strength Nex have unnaturally large arms and muscular legs but the rest of the body is normal. The Super Speed Nex have very Long legs. The people Luminance Nex have a round body frame. The People with the Camouflage Nex have flat bodies. The people with the Super Hearing Nex have Large Ears and no pupils or cornea. You can also be the video editor (if you audition for that role) but if you don't that is fine. You and the video editor will be working very closely. Try to go for a comic book art style or anime art style or any art style that is somewhat serious and try to produce clean clear animations. *Note: Please audition with previous works.

Super Speed Nex


Damon is the leader of the rebels. What really encouraged him to start the rebellion was theneed to save his brother Demetri from being Fianas head worker. He planned on ending the rebellion after saving his brother but his brother convinced him to continue. His emotions are almost always hidden and he portrays himself as a very serious soldier type guy. He doesn't show too much emotion in his voice (not monotone) but still sounds powerful.

  • "Demetri, I promise you, I'll save you and you won't have be her slave anymore.

  • "You know that I don't believe you right? There's no way you're the only one who wasn't effected by the radiation..."

  • "Oh so that's how you do it, should be simple enough" (He says this when he finds out how Fiana achieves the all-baring nex)

  • "I just hoped that I could finally atone for my sins"

Caucasian Female

Luminance Nex

Asia is the youngest of the rebels (14 years old). She is easily the happies of all the rebels. Asia becomes a member of the rebels when Demetri finds her lost in the woods. She seems to be oblivious to the fact that the Earth has basically been reduced to a living hell and that Fiana is the Devil behind itand she always acts pretty silly. She plays as the ray of hope and always sees the glass as half full. Very soft, kind, light hearted, playful, happy voice.

  • *Giggles* "Thanks stranger. I would've never gotten out of here if you hadn't seen my light."

  • "Uh Oh, Demetri did you hurt yourself again?"

  • "Please oh please let me go with you, I know I'm young but I can help. What if... what if... What if you need me to light a dark tunnel for you?! I bet you didn't think of that, did ya?"

Caucasian Male

17 Years of age

Nature Nex

Benson is pretty timid. He joins the rebels out of fear that Fiana is going to find his secret hiding place and put him to work with the rest of the Nature Nex. As soon as Fiana announces that she's the new ruler and that she'll be having each of the people doing specific rules based on their nex, he sneaks away and finds somewhere to build a hiding place. He was able to easily build it because he studied architecture in school and was a young prodigy. He has a quiet (he doesn't whisper) and soft voice.

  • "Who... Who are you guys? And how did you find me here?"

  • "I ran... I was scared. I've always been scared and that's kept me from having many friends. That's why I'm glad you guys found me, for the first time in my life I have real friends. And I finally don't feel so scared anymore."

  • "I promised you guys that I won't punk out when the final battle came, and i intend to keep that promise."

Caucasian Female

Super hearing Nex

Lyrique was always the pretty girl at school. She was popular but she wasn't snobby. She prided herself on her looks but when that was taken away, she was devastated. She joins the rebellion in the hopes of returning to her normal self. She continuously finds herself being spiteful of the fact that she knows she's nowhere the prettiest anymore. Later on she develops a love interest in Damon but she is too scared to confess her feelings because she fears he will reject her due to her horrific appearance. She has a somewhat high pitched "Britney" or "Ashley" type voice.

  • "I used to be the prettiest girl at school ya know, but now this crazy Hitler lady is the new beauty queen."

  • "I'm almost glad i went blind. Everyone told me how the Apiens with the Super Hearing Nex look, if i looked at a reflection and saw a monster... well I'd go insane."

  • "Damon... I love you."

He also serves as a peace maker of the group whenever there's an argument. You can decide what kind of voice you would like to portray him with.
