[Recruiting] [Hollywood] [Modern] [LGBT Friendly] Lights! Camera! Action!

[la dame en noir]

I was hesitant to post my interest cause my muse has been rude. But I'm definitely interested, haven't figured out a face claim just yet though.

[RedPhoenix]

If you were to rate this game on a scale of Melodramatic to Realistic where do you think it would go?

[Ouroboros]

Hey hey! Your friendly neighborhood co-GM here.

Regarding the melodrama/realism split, I'm going to ballpark it at a 65/35 split. Melodrama makes things fun and slavish adherence to realism can be difficult to really write out, but the characters are still supposed to be functioning adults in a workplace. It's also going to depend on who you're writing with and what your characters are like, but don't expect 24/7 craziness and angsty dramaz. Just, you know... a healthy amount of it.

Heya! Happy to see your interest. If you do decide on a FC just let us know

I suspected an Ouro lurked in the wings!  -grins.-

I wouldn't have been able to assemble all this or pull it off without them 



Also a mini GM announcement: I've added a sample character sheet to the front page. Meet Ben Bellson! He's 1/2 of the couple that is the show-runner/executive producer for the show.

[Bibliophilia]

Yay!  I'm so glad you're doing DJ again, he's so adorable.

[Neo In Matrix]

Tentatively intereated in playing Costume Designer with Sasha Grey as face Claim.

[Dotley]

Yay!  I'm so glad you're doing DJ again, he's so adorable.

Aw thanks. I will seize any opportunity to use his unconventionally attractive adorkable face. And I'm hyped for your FCs too. Especially Sung Jin Park!

[Bibliophilia]

I love Sung Jin.  I think he'll make a really interesting Runner and aspiring actor.  Imogen's gonna be a make-up artist, I think.

[RedPhoenix]

Okay...wanna face claim Trace Lysette. Thinking a-paranoid-she's-over-the-hill bad girl actress who is trying to not burn bridges while also steal every scene.

If that would work.

[Dotley]

Adding Sasha Grey and Trace Lysette to the FC list.

And that concept is certainly doable! Sounds like a great angle to play for an actress.

La On 'Laon' Choun is approved!  He's totally open for connections, guys.  So, if your character has a bit of a habit - or is just a recreational user- then he could totally be your dealer.  Maybe he's bumped into your character at multiple auditions?  Perhaps there's a bit of a rivalry?  Do they hate-fuck?  Has he bumped into your character at industry parties?  Maybe your character is in the closet, but Laon knows the truth?

Seriously, he's ripe for all sorts of connections.

[Dotley]

Another GM mini announcement: With our first few characters submitted and officially approved I've gone ahead and made an Accepted Characters thread. Remember to only post your character there if me and/or Ouroboros give you the greenlight to do so.

Recruitment is still open and no one should feel rushed to get a sheet done. There's no time limit or player cap here. If anyone has any questions or wants to muse over character concepts feel free to post here or send a PM.

  I just submitted a character who smokes pot quite a bit- Connection on approval? Could be a friend of her girlfriend or something? :)

I'm totally down!

[RedEve]

Since I have a character going through the approval process with her as a face claim, I would also like to claim Karolina Wydra as my face claim. :)

[Cerevan]

So many lovely new faces~ And in other news, my Disney-princess-with-an-edge-seriously-so-many-edges Awanita Kaskaloe has been approved! I'm looking for all sorts of connections. Specifically a (debatably) friendly rival, an (actual for realsies) friend/roommate, and maybe someone to help her (ahem) deal with her daddy issues. Also open for all kinds of sexy times, behind-the-scenes drama, and anyone who wants to go "Hey, aren't you Nina Lowe?" so she can give them the world's most long-suffering look.

[RedPhoenix]

And here I was toying with also making a former child star who was in movies about Ancient Egypt lol.

Cerevan would you be open to a PM to discuss weaving their backgrounds together or is that too close for comfort and should I just start over from scratch?

Great minds think alike! Let's do some PM'ing.

[Bibliophilia]

Astrid Blue is approved, now, too, guys!  She's a make-up artist and has worked in the industry for several years.  She's open to all sorts of connections, just like Laon.

[GnothiSeauton]

Just posted up my approved staff writer for any connections and stuff.

[Ouroboros]

Like a cat depositing a mangled mouse corpse in your slipper, I have posted the other executive director in the accepted characters thread. You're welcome?

But in all seriousness I'm totally willing to make connections if anyone is interested. :)

[Bibliophilia]

-grins wickedly.-  Oh, Ouro...I want Laon to have connections with both members of the power couple.  I wanna play with that genderplay fear eventually!  -makes grabby hands at it while trying to look innocent.-  Pleeeease!

I definitely support this idea
