First off, Anime. Not sure how many of you watch or are interested in anime, but today we have locked down the final letter of intent for casting our video game. Although we don't want to announce quite yet who we have until contracts are signed, we do have some of the biggest names in american anime voice acting. (10 to be exact) and we can't wait to let everyone know who they are.
Secondly, cosplay. Since our voice actors are from the anime world, we want to add some things to our video game that other companies have yet to do. Cosplay. We hired a fashion designer (the incredible Lisa Bryne) to put together a outfit based on our Lielah character:
And this is the result of a month of crafting, sewing and fittings:
And last but not least is jewelry. If you notice in that last photo, the necklace being worn isn't just any run of the mill necklace. It was custom made by Jenny Ming Tu. It's a locket that opens up with a USB drive inside pre-loaded with a copy of the game. Best part of all for people who aren't fond of necklaces? It also has the ability to turn into a bracelet and will be available as a special boxset once the game is released.
Why are we doing all this you may ask? We are testing out some of our marketing strategies before hand, so if you like what we are doing or have questions, feel free to email us at: will@skyridestudios.com and we'd love to hear your feedback.
Other than that, keep an eye out later this month for details about our cast members. See you later, screen slavers.
