Hello from California everyone!
Guess what my first bit of Hollywood insider info is? A friend of my roommates is voicing a character on the new LSH series. And he's voicing...
wait for it...
it's coming...
Superboy!
I'm probably going to get to meet him on Saturday. Rest assured that I'll do everything in my power to get as much info without freaking him out!

As much exposition as they'll have to do to explain an entire Legion, I doubt they'll want to get into clone Superboy. For most of America, it's Conner Who? I imagine they'll stick with what they know: Clark Kent, Superboy who grows up into Superman.

Director Lad -- that's so cool!
Can't wait to see this!
Maybe this will lead to the return of Chuck/Blok/Wildfire/Dawny...? One can only hope...(it worked with Titans!)

Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone! I love the pics, the synopsis and especially the comments of those who (curse you) have already gotten to see the JLU episode and VERY especially Director lad for those wonderful "inside" glimpses.
This is SO cool!!

I thought about making some snarky comment about "foreigners" but, 1. I like far and 2. I remembered that you had gotten to see it so it wouldn't be fair (really) to single out the English. *sigh*

I thought it was pretty groovy, except

Anyone wonder how closely connected with the LSH series is this JLU episode? Specifically, will we never see Mon-El, or Star Boy, or Triplicate Girl or the other absent members? The JLU plot would seem to indicate that ALL the Legionnaires except BB and Brainy were turned hence the need for JLA intervention. Twelve members shown and 6 depicted as deceased brings us to the "magic 18" of early membership level, if that means anything. I'll revel in any combination of LSH members in their own toon, but if I had a vote, I would want to see as many as possible!

I've read a few times that they said the new series will have nothing to do with that JLU ep - it'll be its own thing.

An update on the recording session that happened Friday, from Shawn "Timber Wolf" over at his blog, Better Days Coming : Recording went well. Friday morning I woke up sounding like a bull frog. I had pretty much blown out my voice the previous night rehearsing growls and howls...it was pretty funny. I spent the greater part of Thursday night crouching on the floor snarling and howling and making animal like movements in hopes that would help me find the right sounds. Whomever mentioned wanting to see a video of my rehearsal would have been entertained.
The session went extremely well. I was a bit concerned that I wouldn't be able to reproduce the rehearsed sounds at the session because my voice was shot but I had no such problem. It was interesting to hear the voices they cast for the other roles. I felt a bit subconscious at first. I expected everyone to record individually; instead we recorded together. In the end, it's a lot more practical to record that way. It allows the actors to play off one another to make the moments/beats sounds as real as possible. It also lends itself to finding or fine tuning key moments in the script.I felt a little added pressure at the start of the seesion to perform well because everyone kept mentioning how much they were looking forward to hearing what I was gonna do. A typical exchange at the meet and greet party was "Hey, you're playing timber wolf. Oh, I can't wait to hear you."
One thing I've noticed about people that work in the voice over industry is that they're a lot happier and nicer than people that work in other areas in the industry. What a relief it is to work with happy people that are relaxed and enjoy their work. The production staff acts like a team. On most sets you can tell who the top dogs are (producers/actors) and those who aren't. You normally see the stress on certain production staff members faces as they run about performing tasks for the higher up producers/actors to keep them happy. There wasn't any of that Friday. It was refreshing.
After recording was complete we, the actors, were given a short tour of the studio. They showed us some preliminary artwork for our show and a few other shows. I am new to all of this so I was and will be very interested in learning all I can about animation and the 'process' while we're recording the next few weeks. One thing I learned is it takes about six months for them to complete an episode after the actors have recorded.
Shouts outs to our producer T. He's the only black guy I've seen involved in the production thus far. He told me this show is his baby.
My dang camera was acting janky. I didn't get to snap as many pics as I would have liked. I am thinking about creating a scrapbook for myself. They have murals painted on a lot of the walls. A pic of the cake they had at the party. The comic book theme was hot. Here's the pic he took of the cake.

Mmm, I'm not sold on this yet.
Is that a ghost image on Phantom Girls chest? Nor am I too keen on the lightning tattoo on Garths face.
It looks like this is going for a Teen Titans luck, rather than the JLU which (to this old fogey) is a shame.
Still A legion series is a legion series.

The style reminds me of Disney's Hercules.
I don't mind Garth's Lightning Bolt eye. Phantom Lass' symbol reminds me of Pac-Man. I hope her eyes aren't that buggy all the time. T-Wolf looks pretty cool to me.

I too was hoping for JLU-style animation, but if they can make this work, why not?
I just hope it'll look better in color.
