Hi, I'm Natsu.I'm learning more on how to voice act and act on a stage, I usually give Skyline prompts for short stories he does and sometimes I'm behind some of the character stuff, but that's pretty much it.I'm usually playing video games and whatnot but I'm always online. I like to think this would be a great start to my voice acting career and actually accomplishing something, and helping my friend with his series!
FAQs
Studio Questions
Where can I apply if I'm interested?If you're interested in joining our journey and want to either voice act, write, design and even more, then we usually host casting calls every now and then that you can find on Casting Call Club under Cosmo's username. If we're not putting up a Casting Call, then it's most likely that we are going to put it in google forms or some other website if it comes down to that. While, we aren't here to pressure anyone to join, we really appreciate it!Any particular skill level that we need to be to join?No, absolutely not. We are beginner friendly to all people. While we do suggest a little experience (like the basics and stuff), it is beginner friendly and a learning experience for all that want to get into the industry! So don't be shy!Any particular age range that we need to be to join?While it is kind of a 'weird' question to ask, but we really appreciate it and think it's important. Right now our age range is 15 and onwards, this number may change sooner or later, but we rather have you be above discords age policy and at a reasonable age. But, the reason why we're flexible with this as we want to showcase what the younger generations can do as well. Hopefully this makes sense.Main communication platform?Our main communication platform is 'Discord'. We mentioned this in the last question, but we wanted to make this more clear now as it's the easiest form of communication and keeps things very organized!Do we get any money for joining?Sadly, no. Right now the creator and the council are still in school and don't really work any jobs yet. While the whole studio is doing it for free and we appreciate and love them for it, we, at some point, want to try and give back to them if they accept it. So please take this into consideration.What do I get if I'm joining/What do I benefit from?If you do join, you get sneak peeks about your character and a lot of others, how the world works and basically the behind the scenes process. We are also flexible with skill levels as we want this to be a learning experience for everyone to joins and also help build a positive work environment and community with the help of you and others. The goal is not only to tell a interesting and awesome story, but it's to also highlight topics that need to be taken seriously and also give representation tons of people who deserve it. Crossover is supposed to be a comfort series, for not only us, but also you all spanning from all ages and that we hope you find joy in like we have.
Crossover Questions
This seems like a BIG series. How long did it take you to think of it and why is it so long?I've had this series since I was maybe...5 years old? Maybe even around 4 years old? Sorry I've always been known to have a very powerful and active imagination. Pretty much Crossover has been my special interest for all these years and I'm pretty sure it's going to stay that way. But I've had about 3 rewrites in total; which if you catch me I might be able to share with you the different rewrites, but, this should be the last rewrite of this series as I finally just accepted how I want it to go. I think I began the final rewrite around 7th grade after I figured out what I want it to be after my experiences (dare I say, traumatic) I had in the past like: Grooming, Attempted Suicide, Harassement, Sexual manipulation etc... It's kind of why I'm glad that I'm going down this route as I wanna share my story, but also highlight other people's stories as well in the process as people DESERVE to be educated.The only reason why it's so long is because it comes over A LOT of stuff that is mandatory for the series to be told. I tried shortening it down a lot as the original amount of stories told were around 24 which is yikes- But, I also don't want to rush a bunch of lore and character development that I and others may need. Especially with 12 characters and the need of a prequel series and a spinoff to support a major MAJOR character's backstory.- CosmoOoo, I see I see. But, what's with the non-human names?Oh! You might be surprised, but I don't actually like using 'human' names. While, there's nothing wrong with using the traditional human names, I prefer using these types of names because I think it helps express myself more and think it's pretty cool. Otherwise, I have them due to lore reasons, which is why mythical beings, humanoids (that aren't human) and anthros don't have them.- CosmoWhen is the franchise coming out?Being straight up, we are taking it slow. This is mostly because of a big lesson I learned when I first started this, that lesson being to NOT rush your product and once again value quality over quantity. At first it was going great, I was on the right track until a hit a low point in the school year that was there before but only increased as I was starting, I also got harassed a few times during that year and ended up burning myself out and going into a slump. Which was uncalled for even for me because I NEVER EVER get into burnouts and this was the first time that it happened. So, right now I'm trying my best to communicate with the team, have them look at sneak peeks, updated redesigns and much more. I also ended up going back and redoing a few character's due to the fact that it just didn't feel like my writing, it felt too poorly rushed or their character lost meaning to their story. Which, I am glad I am redoing it now and not later.Don't worry, I'm doing better now, but what we're planning on doing is building an audience. Building that audience helps me achieve the main goal which is starting the ACTUAL series which is the long episode list shows, the movies, etc, etc. To build that audience we are releasing teasers, animated shorts, comic dubs and more to keep you guys hooked and want to support us. That is our major game plan and to also keep in mind our mental health and not burn ourselves out in the process.- CosmoWhat are inspirations for this series?Sooooo, like many of you know, I am a early 2000's kid at heart. Y'know I like the whole emo scene, some of the aesthetics (can't say much about the social aspect though-) and a lot of other stuff. One of my original inspirations for this series was a video game called World of Warcraft, made by Blizzard themselves. While, I absolutely do not support the company like I used to after all of the allegations against them; I still hold a lot of heart to the video game. I used to watch my dad play it all the time when I was 3 and got my first pc when I was 5. While, giving me unrestricted internet access wasn't a good thing, I made some pretty fond memories from it and also playing WoW in the meantime. I really loved the whole fantasy aspect and trying to get more into DND which the game was mainly based off of. But, there is also a lot of other things that inspired by for this series. For example: I ADORED the Trollhunters series that was apart of the Tales of Arcadia franchise and loved the other two shows that came in that line. I really hated that final movie though....Otherwise, I'm also inspired by the little things like Amphibia, The Owl House, etc as these shows always shared the same premise of a young child going into a fantasy type setting!- CosmoCan I make fanart/fanfiction?Oh yes of course please do! Just please follow our terms of service for each character that you can find linked at the top!

- Crossover Character Introduction Animatic/AMV
Timeline | Achievements
- Crossover first began when the creator was around 5 years old and under the name 'Kaia's World'. The original concept being a multifandom madness type shtick with the 'host' Kaia.- The first rewrite was established in 2016-2017(?) where Cosmo started branching off from 'fandom' work, not entirely, but into the 'Shaman Isles' era. Originally based around World of Warcraft with a plan of 10 movies and a sequel called 'Crossover Hotel'. The series was based around Queen Kayleigh, Lightforged Kaia and Brandon, that is living in a time of war. The sequel 'Crossover Hotel', follows after the 10 movies and focused on Lightforged Kaia meeting the other Kaia's like, Human Kaia (Later known as Envy), Cat Kaia and a whole collection of Kaia's.- The second rewrite, most likely established in 2018-2019 (And early 2020?), was where Cosmo scrapped 'Shaman Isles' and solely focused on 'The Crossover Hotel' aspect of the series. The cast still featured Lightforged Kaia and Human Kaia, but others like Roblox Kaia (Later known as Calamity), Lightfury Kaia, and a lot of others, were all featured with the cast dominiating with a female leads and barely any male characters. This was due to the fact each 'Kaia' was from a different fandom and was a different 'Kaia' from a different universe. Basically the same person.- The third and final rewrite, was established during late 2020 when quarantine hit and when the school year was just starting. Cosmo at the time was dealing with a lot of anxiety, stress and depression, especially after a traumatic situation. During that time period it helped him focus more on story writing and began taking drawing more seriously, eventually getting into animation and probably making his most proud character of all, Hawkfrost. It took a few months, but Cosmo ended up scrapping the whole '__ Kaia' thing, mainly due to getting gender envy from Hawkfrost himself, and that it just didn't make sense anymore due to him wanting to make more of an original work for Crossover. Thus, how Crossover is on its final rewrite and being finalized.
- On May 5th, 2022, Tigers Eye Studio was first established. This was due to one of Cosmo's friends, who was in the friend group at the time, had an idea to help him with designs after an event that affected him mentally and his confidence in art. Originally started with 5 close friends into something more later on.- On December 20th of 2022, Cosmo released the first Casting Call for Crossover on Casting Call Club with the help of Drx with advertisment. Originally supposed to be a small thing (and a joke?) and found thorugh a M.A.P. server Cosmo was participating in, turned into the thing it is now.
