Casting Call for artists and voice actors!

ABOUT:

A thousand years ago, the deity Chaos was sealed by Order. A thousand years ago, all progress in the world stopped.

But when Sam accidentally frees Chaos, he discovers there's more to life than the routines and predictability that have ruled the world for so long.

Now, having access to Chaos' magic, Sam takes on the persona 'Crow' - a magical thief. His mission? Steal all the artifacts used to seal Chaos before Order can use them all to seal Sam's newfound mentor away.

Of course, it won't be easy. Order finds his own protege Mia - who takes on the mantle 'Dove'.

It’s a race to collect the artifacts with the future of the world on the line.

Hi there! I’m going to be building an animation studio dedicated to normalizing disability through interesting stories with disabled main characters!

It’s going to take awhile to officially start up but to start I have an idea for an animated show for the studio, Doves and Crows.

I’m actually looking for people who might want to work on this project with me. We’ll be creating a 1 minute animation proof of concept (and perhaps even a trailer depending on how things go) to procure funding for the project and studio.

Unfortunately to apply for funds the proof of concept is needed first, so I’ll be unable to pay for these steps, but should things go well or even decent in the future I should be able to start paying people.

ABOUT DOVES AND CROWS:

A thousand years ago the deity Chaos was sealed by Order. A thousand years ago all progress in the world stopped.

But when Sam accidentally frees Chaos, he discovers there's more to life than the routines and predictability that have ruled the world for so long.

Now having access to Chaos' magic, Sam takes on the persona 'Crow' - a magical thief. His mission? Steal all the artifacts used to seal Chaos before Order can use them all to seal Sam's newfound mentor away.

Of course, it won't be easy. Order finds his own protege Mia - who takes on the mantle 'Dove'.

It’s a race to collect the artifacts with the future of the world on the line.

ABOUT DISABILITY:

Disability representation in the media is often really bad. Often disabled characters are used as "inspiration", are really 1 dimensional, or their arc consists of becoming not-disabled. Yikes.

As someone with a disability this treatment of disabled characters is so very frustrating.

That's why I wanted to create stories with MAIN characters with disabilities. These disabilities will be actual parts of the character's life and identity (not just aesthetic choices).

The stories while not specifically about disability, will be impacted by disability because it impacts how the characters interact with the world and how they approach and solve problems.

For example in Doves and Crows, Sam has epilepsy and Mia is autistic. While the story itself isn't about epilepsy and autism, these disabilities affect how these characters live and interact.

Of course, while I'm autistic, I do not have epilepsy. As such I am partnered with a local epilepsy advocacy group where I am currently connecting with people who have epilepsy and learning quite a lot!

If you have epilepsy or autism and you're interested in talking with me --- please send me a DM!
