Title: Aria of Sorrow 10th Anniversary
Post by: cecil-kain on January 25, 2013, 05:50:34 AM
Aria of Sorrow's 10th Anniversary is coming up in May, and I'm working on a tribute project...

First we need a pixel artist to create new action sprites, to help animate Aria's NPCs.
For example...

(https://castlevaniadungeon.net/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi732.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fww327%2Fcecil-kain%2FExampleSheet_zps08aa2cdd.png&hash=e252e1827ee4ad7c7cecaeebf6af39e97454b55f)

At minimum, all NPCs sprites need "run" animations.  If possible "attack" animations are also desired.  Yoko is a fairly easy example because her Dawn of Sorrow sprites give a solid reference to illustrate how she moves, but the other characters require more work and creativity.  Arikado in particular... DoS kind of cheated by recycling SotN's Alucard sprites, but in this case we want the Arkiado sprite in the black suit --he should still move like Alucard though if that makes any sense...

Moreover, anyone with experience crafting complex sprite animation sequences for video may be a great help to us.

Beyond that, Voiceover work is also being considered to recreate various scenes from the original game.  Scripting would be subject to minor tweaking --such as "Power of Dominance" instead of "Power to Rule".  Characters needing Voicework would include Soma, Mina, Yoko, Hammer, Julius, and Graham.  Alucard's voice is already decided.

If you can help, or know someone who can please post below.

One person from Serio's board may be willing to help.  I'm supposed to contact him later next week.
