romeo and juliet

[gma4567]

ok i know it sounds kind of corny, but my friend and I thought it might be kind of cool to do a modernized version of the play: romeo and juliet. If anyone has seen the movie Romeo+Juliet by Baz Luhrman then you'll know what I'm talking about. We're still working on some logistics, and we're just now starting to do a screenplay rewrite that fits our needs. Anyway who has even a basic knowledge of the play is welcome, if they are interested. We need voice actors as well as "puppeteers" to move the characters on camera. If you want to be a puppetteer it would be preferable that you have teamspeak or Ventrilo for reasons of coordination.
If you're into voice acting thent he following parts are open:
-all of them except Mercutio, Juliet, and Tybalt

If you're interested at all please PM me or Post a reply here with some info about you etc.

Also we will be integrating customized warthogs for each of the two houses, and I happen to have some pics already so...

Yes I know the plates have really bad resolution but thats the best the skin will let me get it

Now that I look at it, this post could technically go in the skins section, but the primary focus is movie stuff so, here it stays!

BTW pm me if you are interested in getting any of the skins

Ive got a preview in mind:

Watch as two spartans fall deeply in love!

Sorry but mature action games + love stories = Blargen.

It just wont work. Sure if you wanted to pull it off as a comedy it would work awsomely but if you want to make it seriously, not as a joke, like I said it will = blargen.
