This is my more organized attempt at a Proof of Concept for my animation project from several years ago.
Premise:
A brief glimpse into life in Olympus, City in the Clouds. It's not all that amazing as some select residents demonstrate. While these events unfold we get a look at the Realm of Hades, more specifically Tartarus, where the deity of its namesake has a visit with his oldest inmate.
While not exactly centered around the main cast from the story I have written, it is a taste of the world I have crafted.
You may notice not all the characters seen in the linked animation are listed here. I have found outside volunteers for those positions so for now they are taken and will not be listed.
Please feel free to message me about questions or concerns.
With the set deadline for the casting call approaching and few new auditions arriving I think it only makes sense to start selecting actors for more of the roles. Since again the deadline is approaching it goes without saying this is the last opportunity to get auditions in if there's anyone eyeballing the project but hasn't submitted yet.
Last chance for anyone to audition for Gabriel, the Archangel. Seems to have been a fairly popular part but the auditions have slowed down so may as well get to picking people.
