[Back this Campaign]
Have you ever seen Ellen McLain? She’s the voice of GLaDOS.
Geek Native once found a video of the trained opera singer on stage but it was pulled. Maybe someone’s unearthed another.
However, if you want to see the famous McLain and listen to her voice you can. In fact, you can even help her fund the Wish It Inc Kickstarter. This promises to be a fantasy-comedy web series. That sounds like am ambitious goal. Comedy fantasy? Hard to conjure to mind too many successes in that area.
However, Synthetic PictureHaus are the team behind Lab Ratt and Aperture: A Triumph of Science so we’re dealing with a talented group. If you stick with the pitch video above until the cat joke you’ll get a sense of their abilities. That couldn’t have been easy to pull off – a bit of custom animatronics for a pitch?
There’s an uphill struggle for this Kickstarter though. They’re asking for $35,000 and with two weeks left have rased $11,300 from 140+ backers. It might just take a big Portal or Valve fansite to pick up the torch and champion the cause before the flood gates open.
