    Pinging the GOL crew and volunteers: @Emerald Heart @ExplosionMare @Fhaolan @Lord Valtasar @Quinch @Randimaxis and @Troblems . I hope I didn't forget anyone - again.

    Note to self, channel inner Twilight and invest heavily in checklists.

    ANYWAY.

    This is a casting call for Ninjadeadbeard's Trixie's Great And Powerful Adventure, a cautionary tale of why the door to the Cutie Map room needs a lock. It's pretty silly and lighthearted and bears reading one way or the other.

    Here's the list of characters in order of appearance - notes for each of them are behind spoilers because, well, spoilers.

    Twilight Sparkle [ExplosionMare]

    Spoiler

    Probably the trickiest role to play, mostly because she has a lot of different tones to hit - maniacal, worried, annoyed, really annoyed, flustered, panicky, confused, breakdown, and just plain broken. Has the greatest potential for comedy. Overacting is highly encouraged.

    Starlight Glimmer [ExplosionMare]

    Spoiler

    Should be fairly easy - her role seems to be mainly being the calm and level-headed one.

    The Great And Powerful Trixie[Randimaxis]

    Spoiler

    Mainly being TGaP Trixie - switching between dismissive {mainly towards Twilight} and her usual boisterousness. Bit of normal conversation towards the end.

    Three Random Mooks [Lord Valtasar]

    Spoiler

    All three male, very small roles with barely a line or two each. Generic badguyness.

    Starswirl The Bearded [Fhaolan]

    Spoiler

    Small {but oh so significant} role. Conversational, just a teensy bit offended, disbelieving and bashful.

    Luster Dawn {as a filly} [Open]

    Spoiler

    Another tiny role as an awestruck child.

    Celeste Lulamoon [Open]

    Spoiler

    An OC, Luster's babysitter and Trixie's daughter I guess? Should be a fairly simple role, bit of exposition and conversation,

     

    And that should be all of them. Here is also a copy of the story with all the roles highlighted for your perusing convenience. I'll keep this open for a week or so for anyone who might be interested. And as a sidenote, if you know anyone who might be into helping out with this or any other fics, feel free to send them this way.

    Can I call Trixie?  If not, I'll take Starswirl.

    Sure thing!

    so who has what role?
    i'll probably take one of the shorter ones(meaning not Twilight, Starlight or Trixie )

    Unless someone really wants a specific role, I'm leaning towards a "first come, first serve" philosophy.

    One or more goons might be a good choice, if you'd be more comfortable with a bit part.

    I’ll take Twilight & Starlight if they aren’t already taken 

    Sure thing! Would you be willing to let someone do one of these if they want to, though?

    I've edited the main post with the cast so far. So far, only Luster Dawn and Celeste are unclaimed - I'll grab the narrator, unless someone else wants it.

    Does anyone need help with their lines?

    done with mine, where shall i send them? tried to vary the voices a bit so it doesn't sound like they're all the same guy

    Vocaroo should be straightforward enough, I think.

    Is there a due date for this I need to worry about?

    I don't think we're in a hurry - the end of January should be doable for everyone, I hope. If anyone has trouble, let me know.

    I’ve been pretty sick, finally just getting back on my feet. Are the two final parts cast?

    Celeste and Luster? They're still available.

    Ah, I didn't know where to look for these things. Sadly all the male roles are taken, and I doubt my deep rumble can be mistaken for a filly's or young mare's.

    Unless it can be pitch-corrected somehow? but that sounds like cheating to me

    Hi everyone!

    I just wanna mention that I've take then liberty of shamelessly whoring out submitting the reading to EqD and it got included in the Nightly Roundup.

    And a final quickie mention, if anyone wants to chip in with Fahreneigh 451, let me know as I'll probably start recording any unclaimed roles sometime this week.
