On the chat thing at the top when I logged in (I haven't checked yet but so far no-one responded to my question on how that works) several memebers were talking about a Mossflower Movie, and one of them got the voice of Scratch. I heard a rumour on Wikipedia about a fan made movie. But still know nothing about it.

if you saw it on the 'shoutbox' on this site, then it was most likely from members. And I don't think any members of Redwall Path are in a Redwall movie. *looks suspiciously at Fwiffle/Vela* >,>

Nope, not me or Fwiff. Allicloud got a voice acting part in the Mossflower project, which, actually, is a fan-made movie of Mossflower being run on DeviantART. They have a bunch of animators and storyboarders, etc., and they're planning on doing an hour and a half long anmated movie (approx).
See, I can be serious when I want to, XD.

As a recent addition to the cast, I guess it's up to me to enlighten you all!! Basically what is happening, is that on Deviantart, the artist BrevityRacoon has created the idea of a collaborative effort between about 50-100 members of Deviantart, all fans of Redwall, to make a fanmade feature film of the book Mossflower. It's gonna be about 90 minutes long, animated on a mix of Flash and Photoshop (originally gonna be ToonBoom, but not enough animators had it), and looks to be a very professional job, with not just directors, actors and animators, but musicians, composers, editors, SFX, marketing, colourists, etc. Nelvana (the original studio to do it) has nothing to do with it, and Brian Jaques only just knows about it. It'll probably be a similar creation to the other series, in terms of character design, and animation style. But it'll hopefully be more accurate to the story. The only cuts I know for certain are that the Gloomer and Argulor have been cut out, and Bane is killed in a fight with Tsarmina, instead of getting ambushed by Argulor. I think there are a few other cuts of scenes and possible characters, but it's apparently for the best, to make it as good a film as possible. If you go to redwall-animation.deviantart.com, you can see the cast and crew, the progress of the animatic they are making first, and now you can read the beat-sheet of how all the scenes are laid out. I got a PDF of it, it's pretty interesting to flip through. You can also check out some artwork from the crew. Anyways, hope this clears things up, and wish me luck on the project!

Sounds neat, but that's too bad about the Gloomer. I thought he was cool. (Not cool as in I like him being awesome) But cool as in a great part of the story development because he was a strong offensive threat and completely insane. But as long as Gonff's in it... And being a thief, I hope they don't give him an earring or scars or stuff like that. (A bandanna would be cool though) Hope you have fun! And good luck.

Wow, this is great! I'm guessing it'll take about a year or two to finish? I just got a certification in adobe Photoshop(Adobe Certified Associate), so I could probably help...though I guess they already have everyone they need.
I can't wait to see it and I'll be sure to follow you guys' progress.

If you got a DA account and some proof of your skill on it, like a picture you did or something, you could give it a try.

I literally just got a DA account when you posted the link. I haven't put up any 'deviations' yet, but I will soon. Is there some sort of try-outs or should I just go to BrevityRacoon w/ some of my work and see what he says?

Usually you just apply for a postion with an email and some work. Check out there DA account for more info. I've had a DA account for a long time and never really used it. But I'm getting more into art so maybe I'll take it back up.

Wait a second... I looked at the Deviantart thing and it listed the voice confirmations and along with the mossflower voices it also mentioned ones like Brome and Rose. Are you slightly mixing Mossflower with Martin the Warrior? Or are they just flashbacks? Or am I just looking at the wrong thing?
