What is Smiles of Insanity?

Smiles of Insanity is a feature-length film adaptation of The Chaos Trilogy 1: The Insane Smiles, an equally non-profit fanfiction written by DarkMarxSoul. It will be animated in Flipnote Studio 3D in a style reminiscent of old-fashioned comic books and manga.

The story takes place in an alternate universe to Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam in which the Paper Mario universe was never separate from the main series nor made of paper, and it acts as a direct sequel to Super Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story featuring a team-up between Fawful and Dimentio, who seek vengeance against Mario, Luigi, Bowser and Princess Peach.

Smiles of Insanity will contain some verrry mild swearing, and some graphic violence in a couple scenes.

What do you need in order to audition?

Not much, as I'd like as many people as possible to audition, but here are a few things I'm looking for:

• a decent microphone (nothing cutting-edge required; I honestly don't care what you have if I think it sounds alright)

• a wide range of emotions (which seems like a given, but it's especially for characters like Mario and Luigi who have distinct voices and only display a limited range of emotions in their games due to their unserious nature)

• the ability to take brutally honest criticisms and follow directions (as I'll be prioritising the standard of the performances above most else)

• a reliable contact method (e.g. an email you check regularly)

You do NOT need any prior knowledge of the Mario universe to audition.

If possible, I would like there to be "meetings" held over Discord (which is extremely easy to get and use; sign-up not even required), but if for some reason you are unable to make it to many or any of these, there should be a way to work around it.

More details will be included in the descriptions for the individual roles. Roles will start being cast on the 1st of November, 2016, but you may continue to submit auditions as long as a role remains open, even past that date.

Good luck and happy auditioning!
