PAST UPDATES

   .: 02/08/2009 :.

I want to start off by giving many deep apologies to those fans who have been so patiently waiting for the next episode to come out.  I take full responsibility for this.  Unfortunately, I have been very ill the past couple of weeks and I have spent most of my time on bed rest and unfortunately trying to still hold down my day job.  However, I have been slowly regaining my health and getting back to the site and the project.  Again, my deepest apologies for letting all of you down this past month. 

In other news, we have finally found our voice for Naruto, which will be a special Kanespace.NET show airing in the spring!  Hopefully next week we will have a little teaser for you to drool over! 

Please remember that we are always accepting Fan Photos, AMV's and other stuff about the show, so send them in to kashimashi@kanespace.net!

See you soon!
cheers!

  .: 01/25/2009 :.

Hello again to everyone.  Wow, has life been super crazy for me lately.  Illnesses and a heavy work schedule has plagued me terribly, but the show must WILL ALWAYS go on!

I pushed back the Audio Drama one week due to a few set backs.  Remember though, this is a Forum exclusive and you must be a member of the forum to check it out!  We have also set a date for the premiere of episode 6a (see above). 

Website wise, we have done a few small updates to the character profiles.  And if you are wondering about that new button on the left to the Awesome band, The Real You, well, you will just have to wait for that!  XD  In the mean time, check them out and buy their album! 

Please remember that we are always accepting Fan Photos, AMV's and other stuff about the show, so send them in to kashimashi@kanespace.net!

See you soon!
cheers!

   .: 01/04/2009 :.

Happy New Year Everyone!  I want to start off by saying that I hope you all had a safe holiday season.  I know that we can't always be happy with the holidays (like me), but it is important to be safe because there is always someone out there who cares about you and wishes to see you again!

So, as I am starting to climb out of my holiday depression/slump, I wanted to get back to the project and start the new year off right.  In doing that, you may notice some changes around the site including the new format and colors.  Also, I've decided to eliminate doing an update for the project and the web separately, and will now just do one for everything.  I will continue to make minor changes here and there, but this will be our format until summer time. 

As for the show, work has begun on episode 6.  We do not have release dates yet for the individual parts, but check back often as we will post some dates as soon as we know them.  We will say that the special Audio Drama will be released on January 30th.  It will be available for download but only for registered forum users.  So if you are not a member of the forum yet, you may want to get there ASAP!

Kanespace.NET fanDUBs is also working on a Naruto project that will hopefully be released in the near future.  For this Project, we need someone who has a voice that sounds like Naruto.  If you think you have what it takes, please send us an MP3 file of your voice sounding like Naruto.  If we like it, you will be able to lay your claim to fame by playing the role in a super secret episode, never before released in America.

For those of you who have sent me auditions, I will be getting to them shortly and getting back to you, so hang in there!

In closing, I just want to say that information is power, and information like when the next episode will be released will always be posted here on this site when we know it.  So check back often!

Cheers!
WJK

.: PROJECT NEWS :.

.: 12/14/08 - Quieting Down...

Before I get to anything else, I wanted to just say that today is the anniversary of the Premiere of episode 1 of KashiMashi EFD!  One year ago, the show was launched exclusively on this site, and then later on Youtube!  Since then, it has hit over Twenty-Two Thousand views and has had over 100 ratings!  Thank you to all the staff and the fans who made that possible!

Now, as the end of the year approaches, things are quieting down a little bit.  Though there is still the Blooper reel to be released on Christmas Day, that will be about it for this year. 

So in case I don't make it back here this year, I wanted to let you know of some things to expect for next year!  In January we will be releasing the first KMEFD Audio Drama exclusively here on this site.  There will also be Episode 6 coming very early in the year.  Also, if we ever find a voice for Naruto, our Naruto special will be airing in April of 2009. 

With so many things to come, there is a lot of prep work to be done.  So with that said, if I don't talk to you before hand, have a happy, and please have a SAFE holiday!

Cheers!

 

.: 11/30/08 - 12 Days to go...

Well, there is 12 days until the finally of episode five...  I wonder what will happen!  Make sure to tune in on the 12th to find out!

I have had a few quesitons about the Audio Drama banner and to explain in short, that is a special release that the cast has put together for the fans...  It will be available for download here on this site and may have a very special release on YouTube with some video???  We'll see...  Watch for that soon in 2009!

Finally this week, I am proud to announce our second Anime Convention invitation!  Anime Milwaukee on February 27th!  There are still several details to be worked our, so stay tuned...

See you next week!

 

.: 11/15/08 - Donations and Naruto...

Awesome special thanks to Kohta from Massachusetts for his huge donation bringing us halfway to our goal!  Only 15 days left to hit our target.  Help us make it by clicking on the donations link at the top of the page.

We have green lit a new project that will premiere in 2009.  It is a special, never before released in America Naruto episode.  The show will feature music by Attracted To Miss.  We still need to find a voice that sounds like Naruto.  Do you have that voice?  If so send us a voice test right away to kashimashi@kanespace.net!

Finally, do you have a special or favorite moment from the first five episodes?  If so, please visit the forum and let us know!  At the end of the year, we will be counting down the viewers most favorite moments from the fandub!

 

.: 11/09/08 - Not Much Happening...

Well, there isn't a whole lot to update on this week.  Just plugging away at the show.

I would like to bring up once again that we are currently looking for people who have voices that sound like the Naruto characters (Naruto, Sasuke, Konahomaru).  If you think yours does, then send us an audition super fast!  Auditions must be in MP3 format and under 3MB in size.  E-Mail them to kashimashi@kanespace.net.

 

.: 11/02/08 - Donations and Schedule
As we started to discuss last week, we have started a donation drive.  The first week was slow but successful.  For the Month of November, we are working to collect $62 for our upcoming website costs.  A special thank you to Tien Dao of Massachusetts for getting the ball rolling with a whopping $10 start!

Be sure to check out the Donations page!

In other news, we are in Post Production already for 5b and working to finish 5C, and set to make our scheduled releases!

 

.: 10/26/08 - A Schedule & Finances
At this point we can definitely give you dates for our next two releases.
   - 11/14/08 @ 8PM - Episode 5B
   - 12/12/08 @ 8PM - Episode 5C
Both will air (as usual) exclusively on YouTube. 

With that said, I want to take a moment to talk about the cost that this project entails.  Since heading the project now for over a year, the cost has exceeded $1000.  Now, that may seem small, but when it is paid for out of pocket, it gets tough.

I say this because I know that times continue to be tough financially across the globe.  However, we do have some immediate fees coming up soon and that brings me to asking for everyone who enjoys the show, and wants to help out even a little, to send us a donation.

If only 31 people donated $2.37 each, we could pay our web costs for the next year.  So this is our current goal and our hope is to hit this mark by November 30th! 

So please help us out on our first ever KMEFD donation drive!  Click here for more info!

~ Check back next week for more updates!

.: 10/19/08 - Episode 5b is on its Way!

WE MADE IT!  Episode 5a was finally completed and successfully launched.  Since then, work has continued on 5B and 5C and the recording sessions are well underway.

I would like to welcome Damien Emms to our Voice Acting Crew and his input on the show also makes him an asset to the production team as well.  Welcome aboard dude!

Also, as some of you may have noticed, Sora in episode 5 is being played by Matt again.  Unfortunately Dan has been way busy with other life things.  Although Dan may come back at some point, MANY SUPER THANKS to Matt for taking this role once again!

If you are looking for a date for 5b, roughly I would say about November 14th, with 5c coming around Thanksgiving.  These are rough dates though so don't hold us to it, but we will update more next week on progress!

~ cheers!

 

.: 10/13/08 - Episode 5 is Still to Come!!!

WE MADE IT!  Episode 5a is coming this FRIDAY the 17th!

The last few changes are being done and it will be up.  Maybe even Thursday if we can!

Enough for now.  I will have a slew of updates next weekend.

~ cheers!

.: 09/29/08 - Episode 5 is Still to Come!!!

I cannot stress enough to those who have asked or messaged, the project is still up and running.  We have just really hit a couple bad spots in production and because of that, we have not been able to get episode 5 out yet.

I also want to take a moment and note that Dan Brace, who has done a wonderful job playing Sora has gracefully bowed out of the show.  He will surely be missed.

We will have a new episode real soon, so stay tuned, K?

~ cheers!

 

.: 09/14/08 - Slowing Down

Things have slowed to a halt.  Unfortunately, with some not getting their lines in, we have been unable to keep pace. 

Furthermore, without a script writer, we don't have new scripts ready either to work ahead from.

Because of the need for a script writer being so important, I am going to offer up a free full length download of any of our completed episodes for writing just one script.  This means that not only do you get your name in the credits, but you can also DL one full episode in English of your choice!  Check out the openings page for details on how it is done and help us out!

Well, instead of typing on here, I am gonna get back to working on the show.  You can always e-mail if you have any questions.  kashimashi@kanespace.net

See you next week!

 

.: 09/07/08 - It's all well...

First off, I want to let everyone know that we HOPE to have the first installment of episode 5 complete by 9/19.  This date is also my birthday so there is some significance to it!  XD

Also, WE ARE IN NEED Of a new SCRIPT WRITER.  Check out the Openings page for that information if you are interested! 

Well, instead of typing on here, I am gonna get back to working on 5a!  You can always e-mail if you have any questions.  kashimashi@kanespace.net

See you next week!

 

.: 08/24/08 - It's all well...

Response to Hali Christman as the new Hazumu has been great!  Hali is super excited to work more on the project and thus, work has begun on episode 5.

Been spending a lot of time watching the olympics lately and cheering on my favorite Gymnast, Shawn Johnson.  So, project work will begin to pick back up again this week.

Until next time, Cheers!

 

.: 08/17/08 - Sad Announcement...

Tabitha Southall will no longer be playing the role of Hazumu.  There were many factors that played into this decision and though it is saddening, it is for good reasons.  Tabi will pick up other small roles in future shows, but for now is taking some time for school and work.  Tabi will be greatly missed as the voice of Hazumu, but the show must go on. 
 
With that said, tentatively I am announcing Hali Christman, who will take over the role of Hazumu.  From close by in upstate NY, Hali has done a small part in 4a as Track Girl 2.  Her excitement and enthusiasm will help to move us past such a big loss. 

More info on Hali here.

We will be working super hard this week to finish up production on 4B and 4C with Hali on board and the episodes are planned to air on the 22nd and 29th, respectively!

Congratulations Shawn Johnson
 on your Silver in the Individual All-Around!

Bring us home some more!

.: 08/10/08 - Missing...

Our hopes for putting out Episode 4B by August 15th are not going to happen.  As of now, Hazumu has gone missing.  Rest assured that once we find her, we will wrap up the rest of episode 4 ASAP!

As always, the best way to get notified of when new eps are coming is to check the site, or subscribe to our YouTube page (and if you don't know how to get there, check out the link at the top right side of this page!).

Well, that's all for now!  See you in a week!

 

.: 08/03/08 - Keeping Up A Solid Pace...

Well, the new episode is up, and 4B should be premiering by the 15th.  If it is done sooner, we will certainly put it up before hand so you don't have to wait. 

As always, the best way to get notified of when new eps are coming is to check the site, or subscribe to our YouTube page (and if you don't know how to get there, check out the link at the top right side of this page!).

Well, that's all for now!  See you in a week!

 

.: 07/27/08 - Moving Along

Still working at it...  But it is really close!  We just have a few fixups for 4a and then it will be up.  In the meantime we have been working vigorously on 4b, so these eps will start coming through super fast!

Also, as of today, Sabrina Zemanek is no longer playing the role of Namiko Tsuki.  Her schedule has kept her from being as involved as she wanted to be.  She may appear in future eps in small roles.

However, the very talented and super versatile Esther Nho has taken the role to a whole new level.  You will see what I mean when 4a premieres. 

Finally, I cannot stress enough that as I have said in a few updates in the past, the project is still very much alive and will have new episodes shortly.

 

.: 07/13/08 - My Apologies...

Before I get to the part about why I suck so bad, let me first formally welcome Stephen Yates to the Project.  Stephen joins us from across the pond in the UK.  Right now, he will be taking a major load of the responsibilities for writing the scripts.  He will also be doing some voices in upcoming eps! 

Now, on to why I suck!

I need to take a moment to sincerely apologize for the lack of new shows.  Whether it has been something in my life or one of our voice staff not being available, the project has fallen way behind it's originally anticipated deadlines.  It is not for a lack of trying though, that is for sure!

In a nutshell, all three parts of KashiMashi Episode 4 ARE in the works.  Part A is missing a few voices and then it will launch.  Part B is moving along and C is as well.

One of the main things holding up Part A is the Teacher role, Namiko Tsuki.  The actress may come through this week, HOWEVER, in the mean time I am open to anyone who is willing to give it a shot.  When this project started a year ago, I knew there would be sometimes when it became necessary to switch up the talent for one reason or another. 

So, if anyone is willing to take on this role, Please E-Mail me ASAP at kashimashi@kanespace.net.  I will provide you with your lines and we will see what we can work out.

As I said a few updates in the past, the project is still very much alive and will have new episodes shortly.

 

LOST UPDATES IN HERE!!!

 

.: 05/18/08 - Ready to Go!

We are right on schedule to air the finale of Episode 3 on Friday. 

In other news, due to a heavy work schedule for me through the end of May, the project will take just a short 2 week break, and return to full operation on June 2nd, where we will work to pump out Episode 4.  At this time we are looking to have Episode4 completed by the end of July which would be really nice to finish a full episode in 2 months rather than three.

I will try to have updates on the weeks off, but if not, check back on June 6th for an update on the airing of 4a.

Make sure to tune in on Friday at 10PM EST for the finale of episode 3!

 

.: 05/11/08 - Happy Mother's Day

Right on track for the finale for Episode 3 to premiere on May 23rd. 

Furthermore, we are slowly beginning work on Episode 4.  It is our hope that Episode for will be completed by the end of July.

Make sure you check back next week for the announcement of something really fun!

Have a nice week, and be sure to wish your Mom a Happy Mother's Day!

 

.: 05/03/08 - 3B is Live!

Yes, that is right.  Episode 3B is live on Youtube right now.  You can get there by clicking on the link to the right.  Be sure to check it out and give it a good rating. 

We are looking to air the finale for Episode 3 on May 23rd.  We will be able to judge that a little better next week but we are already getting close.

Have a nice week, and be sure you water the tree you planted for Arbor Day!

 

.: 04/27/08 - Finally!

Well, we may have finally gotten our technical issues solved and Episode 3A has went live on YouTube!  Be sure to stop by and check it out.

In other news, 3B is very near completion and should hopefully air next week on May 2nd!  If for some reason it does not, it will be there May 9th for sure, but plan for May 2nd. 

Have a nice week, and be sure you water the tree you planted for Arbor Day!

 

.: 04/18/08 - Falling Behind... But Staying on Track

The string of technical issues has continued to surround some of our staff.  So we are still waiting on the release of Episode 3a. 

On a brighter note though, 3b is just about complete and will air shortly after 3a does.  So we are staying close to on track, but falling a bit behind.

To make it up to you, we are posting a very special teaser here just for you all who are dying for the new eps.  This scene stars our very talented Esther Nho playing Yasuna.  The scene occurs after she walks away from Hazumu and is torn.  Music by Greg Kundolf, and background effects by none other than Me!  XD  Enjoy!

 

 

.: 04/06/08 - Falling Short...

Unfortunately, some of our staff have became plagued with technical issues the past couple weeks and therefore we are unable to complete Episode 3a on time.  We hope to have it ready by April 18th, but at this point will not set a definite deadline. 

However, it has became apparent that we should be able to complete the whole of episode 3 by then end of May.  So, with that in mind, we will be pumping out a number of parts in succession very shortly.

We have a quick opening for a waitress right now.  For details, check the openings page. 

Sorry for the bad news this week.  Check back next week for some hopefully better news!

~ cheers ~  XD

 

.: 03/30/08 - Episode 3 Nears Completion

We have hit a few hiccups with our voice staff, but we are still trying to remain confident that Episode 3 will premiere on time - April 11th, 2008.

On an off note though, an executive decision has been made to hold off on going forward with the Macross Zero FanDUB Project at this time.  It will eventually come to fruition, however we want to focus our best efforts on KMEFD at this time. 

Right now, keep in mind that we still have a few openings for some secondary roles.  If you are interested, PLEASE CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY!  There is limited time and limited parts.

~ Cheers

 

.: 03/18/08 - Nothing new

No major update this week.  To be honest, I am working my Butt off on scripts. 

Switching servers next week and we will be down the 24th - 25th.  Maybe sooner, so if you stop by and we are not here...  Just think that we went to the store for eggs. 

~ Rock!

 

.: 03/09/08 -  SNOWED IN!

Well, if you haven't heard yet, our Con premiere was canceled unfortunately to a heavy storm system that was moving into Amherst.  The Con had to be shut down 75 minutes before we went on. 

I would like to thank Annie for inviting us and keeping us happy, and for inviting us back at a future date to be set.  We know you had no control over it and it is NOT your fault.  

On the brighter side of things, since the premiere didn't occur when it should have, Episode 2C will be live on YouTube ASAP!  Please comment and enjoy.

~cheers~

 

.: 03/02/08 -  Home Stretch!

I really need to thank all of the staff for coming together so quickly and helping me finish parts B & C so quickly right at the end!!!  I couldn't have done it without all of you!

So, yes, parts B & C are so near completion, it is unreal.  We are in post-production for both.  For those of you who have waited so patiently for part B on YouTube, I can tell you that it will be there before NEO Noh-Con.  Part C will appear at the convention this week as anticipated in a more theatrical way.

If you would like to see the episodes, Uncut and Full, please join us at NEO Noh-Con.  You can get information by clinking the link at the top of the page.  Show time is at 6pm.  Hope to see you there!

AGAIN... I REALLY need some help with doing these scripts.  If anyone want to volunteer for this and/or the new project, you will be greatly welcomed aboard and duly credited.

~cheers~

And as for that big announcement, it is Macross ZERO.  That's right.  To see a quick preview, check out our YouTube page.  Production will not be beginning until closer to summer time, but if you are interested, please send us a message.

 

.: 02/17/08 -  Moving Right Along

Ack...  Sorry that I have been apparently absent recently.  I have been working a lot of extra hours and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. 

I have gotten the script for Ep 2C completed and it can be found in the Forum for those of you with access. 

I REALLY need some help with doing these scripts.  If anyone want to volunteer for this and/or the new project, you will be greatly welcomed aboard and duly credited.

We are probably gonna miss our mark for Friday the 22nd for the premiere of part B as there has been a lot of prep work going into the upcoming convention.  Hopefully we will be ready with part B for the 29th on YouTube and then of course part C will premiere exclusively at Neo Noh-Con on March 7th.  It will appear on YouTube on the 14th, but for those of you who want a great show, join us at Neo Noh-Con where you can view the first two episodes completely and in their entirety on the big screen. 

Show time is at 6pm.  Hope to see you there!

~cheers~

p.s. - And as for that big announcement on the next project...  You will have to wait a little while longer.  XD

 

.: 02/03/08 -  Moving Right Along

Well, we are on track for this coming Friday.  The premiere of episode 2 on Youtube.com.  Tentatively, Part B should hopefully also be done soon so look for that on February 22nd. 

The offer is still out there for anyone who would like to work with the project by writing the scripts.  It is a fairly easy task, but just takes some time to be able to do, of which I am always running short on. 

If you are interested in contributing music to the show, you can submit your work to us at kashimashi@kanespace.net.  Something simple and quaint with piano and such would be nice.  If you need reference, watch the original show and that will give you some ideas.

Also, I have taken the plunge and invested another $300 into the project that I really didn't have for some software upgrades.  So, if you have money laying around, feel free to use that DONATE button to the left!

I am hoping next week to make a big announcement of another project I am going to be working on, that will run concurrently with this one.  I promise it will be AWESOME!

~cheers~

 

.: 01/27/08 -  Moving Right Along

Wow!  Really sorry about no update last week.  Life has been hectic and so has the project.  I find sometimes that when I am really focused I will unfortunately let other things go.  This was the case last week as I was very enthralled in the background audio for Episode 2, parts A and B.  Needless to say, Part A’s BG audio is completed and all of the voices have just about been done so we are on track for February 8th.  Furthermore, Part B should hopefully also be done soon so look for that on February 22nd. 

The Script for Episode 2, Part B can now be found in the forum in the staff section.  Speaking of being overly involved, I have found myself writing the scripts again since Jess has stepped out of the project (for unknown reasons).  So anyone who would be interested in scripting can send me a message.

I am putting out another request for music.  Basically the show needs some that is happier, but without vocals for the backgrounds in some scenes.  If you are interested, you can submit your work to us at kashimashi@kanespace.net.  Something simple and quaint with piano and such would be nice.  If you need reference, watch the original show and that will give you some ideas.

Outside of that, we could still use some extra voice actors and actresses for extra slots.  There are several bit parts that you can voice and really become a part of the project.  This also opens the door, should one of the main characters ever drop out.

I will really try to make sure to have an update next Sunday on the 3rd, but if not, come back February 8th in the evening for the premiere of episode 2!

~cheers~

 

.: 01/13/08 -  One Down, Twelve to Go!

Well, we have finally finished the first episode.  Going back to the first news report in late July, it has been about half a year in the making…  However, WE FINALLY DID IT!

We have completed our core staff of Actors and Actresses for now.  The latest joining was Deni-Carington-king, who has taken the role of Jan-Puu.  Also, special thank you to Alicia Pamperin who graciously accepted the role of Mrs. Osaragi under the direction of Matt.   

There are still some small and semi-recurring parts available.  For anyone who is interested, please shoot me over an e-mail with your gender, so I know what to send you over to read!

Work continues on episode 2!  Right now the premiere is set for February 8th, but if possible, we will pump that out by the first!

See you next week!

 

.: 01/06/08 -  Happy?? New Year

Welcome back to the KashiMashi English FanDUB Project!  Really sorry about not having an update last week, but I had some life stuff going on and there wasn't a whole lot to update.

For the time being, Danni has agreed to take the role of Mrs. Osaragi so that we can meet our next episode deadline.  Though, the project is greatly in need of a female to play Mrs. Osaragi (Hazumu's mother). We need this person immediately so that we can finish the bulk of the second half. If you would like to try out, send me a message VERY QUICKLY!!! 

Also, I have a few bit parts left open for Males. Contact me ASAP!

I want to take a moment and thank Greg Kundolf who is a very talented artist who has been sharing his compositions with the project.  His music is in the opening sequence of the first episode.  Thank you so very much Greg!

The script for Episode 2, part A is now in the forum.

The premiere of part 2 will happen next week come hell or high water!  Check in on Friday, around 8pm EST.  It will be available on YouTube.

See you next week!

 

.: 12/23/2007 -  New Staff and Help?!?!?!

Welcome back to the KashiMashi English FanDUB Project!  It has been 9 days since the last update, so I have a few things to talk about!

To start off this week, there have been some significant project changes. But first there are some important staffing changes to note!

The project is greatly in need of a female to play Mrs. Osaragi (Hazumu's mother). We need this person immediately so that we can finish the bulk of the second half. If you would like to try out, send me a message VERY QUICKLY!!! If you are in the mood of wanting more to play the teacher, Namiko, I could do some last minute shifting of personnel, but if I don't have to, I would rather not.

Also, I have a few bit parts left open for Males. Contact me ASAP!

Jess has taken over the script writing piece of the Project which will save me a lot of time that I can dedicate to other areas of the project!  THANKS JESS!

There are also new staff this week, including Sabrina Zemanek from Upstate NY, and also Dan Brace who joins us from across the pond in the UK! He will be taking over the role of Sora Hotoshi for the remainder of the series and I will be shifting over to play the perverted Mr. Osaragi! Believe me, it is not that far of a stretch... XD But, thank you to the both of you for coming aboard and joining us.

On to format changes:

Initially, we had anticipated to have each episode split in two, and host them here. However, since we are lacking certain measures in traceability and upkeep, the video's will now be hosted exclusively on YouTube. Furthermore, to meet the stringent requirements, the episodes will now be broken into 3 episodes each. Part two of episode one will still premiere on the 11th of January, but will be in the new format, so a small portion of part one, will be in the new part two, and there will also be a part three premiering on the same day!

In anticipation of NEO Noh-Con, we will also work our butts off to finish episode two by March 6th!

To everyone out there, Please have a happy and SAFE Holiday!

See you next week!

 

.: 12/14/2007 -  KMEFD Episode 1, Part 1 PREMIERE TONIGHT

Well, it is Premiere night.  The episode will remain up past tonight, so if it is slow runnin, there may be a lot already checking it out.  So you can always stop back again later, or in the days to come.

Please, if you watch the show, please stop by the forum and comment on it.  Even if it is just a short one liner, let us know you checked it out and what you thought!

Spread the word about the show.  We still need a few spots for the next episodes.

See you Next Sunday!!!!

 

.: 12/08/2007 -  KMEFD Episode 1, Part 1 NEXT WEEK!

Not a whole lot to report this week.  The Pre-View of KMEFD 1-1 is up for staff and the premiere is next week!

.: 11/18/2007 - NEW FACES & A RELEASE DATE?

Good Sunday!  I am so happy to write this section this week.  There is so much to talk about in Project news!

To start off, I would like to welcome Esther Nho to the project.  She will be playing Yasuna and has already completed her work on Episode 1, Part 1.  Furthermore, she completed the long awaited lineup for casting of the first part.  Wait until you hear what she can do!

I am also announcing officially the Premiere date for Episode 1, Part 1.  On December 14th you can come here and view the show in all it's glorious English Language!

The project did have anticipated music to use for the show, but coming to the realization that the project is independent, how great would it be to have independent musical talent feature their music?!  So, I have asked a few musicians that I know already, but would love to hear other work and consider it for the show.  You can e-mail an MP3 with a short Bio information to kashimashi@kanespace.net. 

The script is almost done for Part 2 and will be available by next Sunday for Staff.

See you next Sunday!

 

.: 11/11/2007

Not much to report by way of the Project.  I am really just waiting for the files now from the staff.  We have been joined by Heather Eglin who has voiced "Track Girl" in Ep 1-1, and will do other fill-in parts later on in the series. 

The script for Ep 1-2 is in the works.  Look for that to be complete within two weeks.  Also, the process of remixing the audio has begun for this episode.

Hopefully by next Sunday, we will have an anticipated release date for Episode 1-1. 

.: 11/04/2007

So the project was moving along slowly, but has picked up speed again.  The background audio track for episode 1-1 has been completed and voice pieces are being added.  With any luck, 1-1 will be complete before Christmas!   

I have already begun work on Episode 1-2, while we await the rest of the parts to be filled.  There are two main openings left which are Tomari and Yasuna.  Hazumu will be played as a male by Matt Kohls and then as a female by Tabitha Southhall.  Welcome to both of you!  Matt will also take on the role of Austa for the remainder of the series.

Watch for a pretty cool promo to be released soon!

.: 08/19/07 - Waiting...

Waiting, waiting, waiting...  Just waiting for more voice actors to fall from the sky...  I want to thank all of those who have e-mailed already saying that they were interested, but if you know someone who would like to voice act, please clue them in and send them our way so we can get this project going.  The script is set for Episode 1-1 and I have started a lot of the BG sound stuff.  That is about it for now. 

.: 08/12/07 - MySpace Launched...

Wow, have I been way too busy at work and stuff.  For those of you who don't know, I am an investigator for my County focusing on CPS.  Lot's of difficult cases lately.  I hope it slows down soon so I can play more with the project.  Never fear though, I will always be around working on something, just may take some time!

Jess and I thought it would be a good idea to launch a MySpace Page to help gather some more interest.  Please check it out through the link page and let us know what you think!  Oh yeah, the Link page is up and running too!  :) ~cheers

.: 08/02/07 - Warm Welcome!!!

 FIRST OFF, I want to give a long overdue welcome to Jessica Holladay who has been assisting with the site and who will play the voice of Ayuki in the KashiMashi FanDUB!  Thank you so much for coming aboard.  She has written up the character Bio's that you will see very soon, so be sure to check them out!  On the otherside of the coin, I haven't done much.  Life has been really crazy at work (where I pretty much live) and I am on-call all weekend long.  SUCKS!  At any rate, I will start some updates between investigations this weekend.

.: 07/28/07 - Script One Complete

Finally the script for Episode 1 part 1 has been completed and posted.  That took a longer time than I thought.  I am hoping it will get a little easier as time goes on. 

.: 07/24/07 - Opening and Script

Well, I put together what I think will be a pretty cool opening sequence.  Used a not very known Duncan Sheik song.  I have also done another one with Auf Der Mer.  I will post these in the project section some time at the end of the week.  I have also just about finished up the script for 1-1.  Look for it around Sunday.  Positions open right now!

.: 07/22/07 - And it begins!

Here is the start of something pretty sweet!  Outside of the site, I have started writing the "Script" if you could call it that, also gathered together good clean versions of text-less video for the show.  For future note, these will be posted in the project section.  I also put together a quick promo bump which I will get in the media section soon.

.: 09/07/08 – Small Changes...

Updated some items around the site including a few of the character pages and also the Openings section.

A few weeks ago I started work on some other shows and a parent site to go along with it.  For now that has all been put on hold for a while.  The focus will continue on this show and this site. 

In the coming weeks I will start to work on a Media section of downloadable content for the show.  Look for that around the end of September! 

 

.: 08/17/08 – New Format Coming Up!

There is also now a music section where you can find out who some of the musical artists are that contributed to the show.

 

LOST UPDATES HERE!!!

 

.: 05/11/08 – Trimming Down

With so many other things going on, I am currently discontinuing the Yuri Listing page.  As much as I would like to continue work on this section, it is just one extra thing that takes away from the FanDUB's.  If anyone would like to write reviews and update the fans on different Yuri manga and anime, I am open to suggestions.

Updated a few profiles in the Character's section this week too.

Have a great week!

 

.: 04/19/08 – Update coming soon!

Yuri List has been updated, and we have added Mrs. Osaragi to the Characters section.  We will also be again having a media section for DL's of your favorite KashiMashi stuff.

 

 

.: 04/06/08 – Yuri Listing Has Begun!

We have finally launched the Yuri Listing section.  Although it is fairly baron right now, it will fill up in time.  Check it out and if you know of a Yuri you would like to review, send it over.

We are also continuing to update our character lists and bio's. 

That's all for this week!  See you next time!

 

.: 03/30/08 – A Whole Lotta New!

As you probably noticed, we HAVE launched a new layout.  Furthermore, we are also on a new and more consistent server. 

As work continues on the new site, please keep in mind that we are still ironing out a few kinks so you may hit a few dead ends.  Sorry! XD

This new layout will allow for easier addition of new and interesting things that we will be integrating in the coming weeks.

A lot of the main work has been done, but not all of the characters/staff pages are up yet.  These should be done by next week.

Until next time, enjoy!

 

.: 03/09/08 – UPDATE On New Site...

Our move to a new host will occur within the next week or so.  Please be aware that at that time, our site will be down for up to 48 hours, as will e-mail. 

You can still view the show on YouTube but out side of that, we will be down.  Further updates to come...

Until next time~~~

 

.: 02/17/08 – New Site Soon

In the very near future we will be moving the site to GoDaddy hosting.  There we will relaunch our site using some asp.net framework and incorporate the new project.  When that happens (hopefully in March) we will be down for a few days, but I promise it will be well worth it!

Still working on the Yuri Listing Section.  It will be coming soon.  For more info, check in the old news.  If you know of a Yuri that you would like to review, send me a message and let me know.  Your reviews are important.

Until next time~~~

 

.: 02/03/08 – Odds and Ends

The biggest update this week is we have not one but two staff videos.  The voices of Sora and Namiko are now both up for viewing in the Viewing Room.  CHECK EM OUT!!!

I would like to do an overhaul of the site fairly soon, and would like some help with it if anyone is interested.

We are taking some submissions right now for an upcoming section called the “Fan Slice” which will feature fan work about the show including short stories, AMV’s and drawings.  Anyone who is interested in sending in their work should do so ASAP.

.: 01/27/08 – Taking Submissions

Yes, that is right.  I am taking some submissions right now for a new section called the “Fan Slice” which will feature fan work about the show including short stories, AMV’s and drawings.  Anyone who is interested in sending in their work should do so ASAP.  I would like to premiere this area in the very near future.

Another neat section that I have been working on is a “Yuri Listing” section.  This section will contain information on other Yuri that is out there and available in either DVD or Manga format.  The first two Mangas that I will be reviewing will be The Last Uniform and then First Love Sisters.  If you know of a Yuri that you would like to review, send me a message and let me know.  Your reviews are important.

We have taken some time to update our MySpace Page.  I have also updated the Project page to reflect staff changes. 

Next time in the Viewing Room, you will hopefully see some staff videos about the project including interviews with Dan Brace, Heather Eglin and more!

Until next time~~~

 

.: 01/13/08 – Something to report!

There isn’t usually anything to report website wise cause I spend most of my time working on the audio for the show. 

However, this week there are a few items to update.  Deni’s Profile and Esther's profile has been added to the Project page along with some updated info on the project.  I have also made a minor update to the Viewing room. 

Dan Brace will be working on some graphics to help spruce up the place, so watch for some of those next week! 

 

.: 01/06/08 - Not much goin'...

Not a whole lot to report in Website news.  If you haven't already, stop by the forum and chat a while. 

  

 

.: 12/23/2007 -  Viewing the KMEFD

In web updates, there have been some changes to the viewing room, where as now it will take you directly to our new Youtube page. Please, after you have watched, make sure to comment and rate (5 stars please XD)! The more views and ratings, the closer we can get to the top.

I also plan to start a YURI listing to include books and shows and any other form of media, but I am not sure if I will work on this solely through the forum or here on the site.

I greatly apologize for not making so many changes lately, between the holidays, starting a new job, finishing an old job, and working towards the completion of the rest of episode one, I barely have time for much else. Soon though, I promise! XD

Until next week, Cheers!

 

.: 12/14/2007 -  KMEFD Episode 1, Part 1 PREMIERE TONIGHT

Just worked around the site, trying to fix some of the links and setting up the viewing page.  That's about all...

I am super excited about our first episode!  Let's just hope the Server holds up!

P.S. ~ I wanted to take a moment and just give special thanks to everyone who made this project possible!  Esther, Tabi, Danni, Matt, Jess, Heather...  You all made this project something that would actually come true and work.  Thank you all so very much for everything you have contributed!  ~ Cheers!  

 

.: 12/08/2007

Most of the web work this week has focused around the viewing room and setting up the stream for Episode 1's Premiere next week.  So there isn't a whole lot more going on.

I am super excited about next week!  Let's just hope the Server holds up!

~ Cheers!  

 

.: 12/02/2007

Well, as you may see there are some different changes going on around the site.  To start, the Staff section on the Project Page has been updated to reflect the current lineup of Episode 1, Part 1.

I have also added a Donate Button to the Left side.  Just so you know, I am NOT looking to make money off of this project at all!  It would help though if I wasn't pouring in so much money (by March, I plan to have spent about $1500).  Therefor the Donate button has been added, and any proceeds raised will go toward the Web Hosting costs.  If there are any software needs, it will benefit that too.  After that, should there be any additional funds, it will be re-donated to a worthy charity. 

~ Cheers!  

 

.: 11/25/2007

There isn't a whole lot to report as far as website updates this Sunday.  Most of the time lately has been spent preparing for the upcoming premiere and for Buffalo in 2008. 

There have been some minor visual things going on, and we are also 'maybe' preparing to make some changes to our host.  More to come on that next week.

~ Cheers!  

 

.: 11/18/2007

Welcome back!  In website news, we have kinda changed the name and got rid of the Un-Official part.  It just made more sense.

Updated the Project page with some more staff images and short Bios.  Also added a FS and a WS background to the media section.

Not a whole lot more to report on the site...  Until next week, Cheers!

 

.: 11/11/2007

There have been some changes to the site.  First off, I consolidated the About and Characters pages into one, and also added in some history on Kashima Japan.  Secondly, the old project page has been removed and replaced with a new page that just talks about the project.  I have added some short Voice Actress Bios and more will be added soon. 

For any staff looking for the old project page, e-mail me and I will send you the link.  I will be revamping that too with an upload section for the files, but it will be staff only. 

I will be adding some promotional items to the Media section so watch for those too!

Until next week, Cheers!

.: 11/04/2007

In Website news, I have updated the forum link to direct to the new forum hosted by ProBoards.  Granted it is very simple, but for now that is fine until business picks up a little.  I urge you to please visit the Forum and Join up to discuss KashiMashi with us. 

I plan to make some wholesale changes to most of the site, mostly regarding navigation.  Watch for these changes later today and through the week.

Thanks for visiting!

 

.: 08/19/07 - New openings and more

Well, there is no resolution to the server issue just yet, but hopefully soon.  The links page is active now and there's plenty of links there for more stuff if you have any ideas.  I have also added a new opening sequence for episode one.  More to come soon... 

.: 08/11/07 - Characters Page Finished

Finished up the character page for now.  May add in some of the background characters at some point, but all of the main ones are there now!  Thanks again to Jess from saving my fingers a bunch of typing!

.: 07/29/07 - Forum Added plus More!

Added in a button for the forum.  PLEASE feel free to stop by and register and post away.  Also added a button (not working yet) for the Character Pages which Jess has so kindly agreed to contribute to!  Can't wait for that!!!

.: 07/27/07 - Project pages again

More work on "The Project" section.  Fixed Jess' name...  XD   Added video for EP1-1.  Also putting up a few Ideas for the opening.  Check out the different versions and let me know what looks good.

Added more work on "The Project" section.
