Character #3 (Judging Period)

Posted on by

The Submission Period for Character #3 has now come to a close.  I’ve closed the comments on the thread so no further names will be accepted.  We again beat the number of submissions we had for our previous character with a total of 27 submissions for this round! Way to go!

For the next week the judges will deliberate and choose our favorites.  The finalists will be notified by email that one or more of their entries made it into the final round.  If you don’t receive an email from me, your entry was not chosen.  But there are two more characters to be named, so please keep trying!  I will post the names on the Blog next Monday where everyone will get a chance to vote for their favorite!

Character #2 (Voting Period)

Posted on by

Now starts the Voting Period for Character #2! The Judges discussed the pros and cons of each name and then voted on them. Names were chosen by majority rule, which meant that a minimum of three votes were needed to move the names to the Voting Round.  In this round only one name received four votes.  The rest received three votes.  Congratulations to the four finalists who made it to this round!

Now the naming of this character rests with all of you. It’s out of the Judges’ hands. It’s your decision.  Please take a minute to vote and show your support.

This round is a bit different from the last voting round in that we are also including the current name of the character, Tara, for you to vote on.  Do you like the character’s current name or do you prefer one of the finalists’ character names?   You can only vote for one of them!

He works for a toy company as an accountant.  Nerdy, nervous and timid, he has a lot more going for him than most people give him credit for.  He also loves to play video games.

The Submission Period for Character #2 has now come to a close.  I’ve closed the comments on the thread so no further names will be accepted.  We beat the number of submissions we had for our first character by 10 with a total of 23 submissions for this round! Way to go!

Character #1 (Voting Period)

Now starts the Voting Period for Character #1!  The Judges discussed the pros and cons of each name and then voted on them.  Names were chosen by majority rule, which meant that a minimum of three votes were needed to move the names to the Voting Round.  There were some good submissions but, in the end, the Judges felt that three of the names really fit the character, so much so that we were all four in agreement on the names.  Congratulations to the three finalists who made it to this round!

Now the naming of this character rests with all of you.  It’s out of the Judges’ hands.  It’s your decision.

Character #3

The next name we need is for a character who has not yet been cast, but I can tell you who is number one on my wish list.  That person is actor Joel Bissonnette.  I haven’t personally talked to Joel so I have no idea if he is interested.  But I think this role would fit him perfectly and it would be awesome to have another I-Man alum join the cast.  For this character we are looking for both a first name and a last name.  Here’s a short character description:

He’s a wealthy industrialist who is considered one of San Francisco’s upper class.  His power and influence have made him one of the top businessmen in the city.  But behind the thin veil of respectability lies a man who isn’t above doing something illegal or immoral to further his goals, and he has a secret which makes him even more dangerous.

Character #2

The next name we need is for a character anticipated to be played by the beautiful Shannon Kenny.  For this character we are looking for only a first name.  We do already have a name picked out that I’m going to submit for voters to decide upon.  I’ve posted it as the first comment below.  Can you come up with a better name? 

Here’s a short character description:

She’s a beautiful toy designer who is not what she appears to be.  Even those closest to her don’t know what her true motives are.
