A group of fans of Virtual Firefly are putting together a project that will see Firefly once again in some kind of filmed medium. That medium is machinima, but it's a little more sophisticated than the genre implies. We've got a real Serenity and a real mule already worked up, and the biggest thing we're currently missing is the voice acting. What we need is people to record themselves saying some dialog (try to find something that's a little longer, I have suggestions in mind for anyone that's stumped, just send an e-mail off to mvff_voice@yahoo.com) and to save that as any audio file type your little heart desires and send it off to mvff_voice@yahoo.com We'll evaluate all submissions, including a fan vote over at VFF's forums and hope to make a decision soonish although I am wary of putting a hard deadline on it. Head on over to our Forums and take a gander at the thread discussing the project, including some demonstration animations.

And if you haven't taken a gander at Virtual Firefly yet, than I don't know what you're waiting for! They're well into season 2 and things are getting better and better- including some frustrating solid hints at Book's possible past with MilCom, River getting saner and crazier all in one topsy-turvy episode and Inara getting real close to Jude.

Just wanted to give a little bump to let people know we're still going forward with the project, but we really need people to want to be in the project!

Actually sounds kinda cool. I took the Firefly test and came up as Wash... seems fitting since I am a bit of a smart, uh, mouth.

Do you guys have a script of some sort or do you want a voice over from the series/movie?

There's a list both in the thread I linked in my first post as well as at the following page:

Sounds fun, but i lack the technology to be able to play.

So...a nice shiny bump for the thread.

*bump*

it doesn't take much. If you've got $10 to spare at your local Wal-Mart grabbing a mic (Logitech, good stuff) and a computer, that's all you need. If not, that's cool. We need fans, too.

Actually the problem is more of old, OLD 'puter and only having dial-up (takes rutting forever to upload or download anything.).

Some day I'll techie-up, but by then the rest of the 'verse will still be leaving me in the dust.

Let me know if you guys end up putting any on CDs. I'd pay to have that shipped.

Hi, guys. This is the head writer of VFF (Virtual Firefly). I just wanted to drop by to offer my support to Yancy and the project. Thanks, of course, for the kind words on the project over all (20+ episodes in, which means you've got over 1000 pages of Firefly content if you want it!). Yancy: You might want to post a link to one of the early Firefly clips that your group put together so folks can see what you're working toward!

Good idea, gwek.

A trailer:

The teaser (4:45) for our first episode, Pull the Trigger. Now imagine voice actors instead of just the dialog!

I would see the stuff but my PC's sound card is dead I can't do a decent voice for anyone, but I might be able to work out a guest star (Ben Hicks or something like that maybe).
