"The Railways of Crotoonia" Animated Series (Wave 1)
Project Overview
Do you love doing impressions of animated characters?
Well here's your chance to shine!
I, Milan "MilanTooner" P., am looking for voice actors for my biggest project yet: An adventure-loaded and fun-packed animated series entitled "The Railways of Crotoonia", following the daily mishaps and misadventures of some of the world's most famous animated railway engines (and some favorites outside the rails!) whilst living in the bustling North American country of Crotoonia. Preceeding its release will be a multi-part series of shorts entitled "Meet the Crotoonians", introducing it's wide cast of characters to unfamiliar audiences.
The series will be produced in MikuMikuDance whist also employing traditional animation, and will join together a rag-tag team of characters on thrill-loaded adventures like you've never seen them before!
But we need your help to get this show on the railroad!
So come and join the Crotoonian crew, and if you don't get a role, don't worry! This is just the first wave for the casting, so there'll be more roles where this came from! GOOD LUCK!
