hello!
« on: September 26, 2010, 09:21:55 AM »
Hey Everybody,My name is stav and I live in Israel.
 I like to read the Animorphs, for many years.
The problem here in Israel, abused his readers to translate only 18 schools.
Like many readers I had to search for information on the Internet over the years.
I read here a lot but I can write in English (even now I use Google translate). Sorry for the spelling errors and the formulation.
I was wondering if anyone happen to know the names of children / models that appear on the backs of the books (those are like the characters), it's something that always interested me. It would be interesting to get information from them and ask them questions.
Thanks!

Only 18 books have been translated ...
By the way, also the translation of the book series 'Everworld' stopped translating three books ...
No one is going to translate into Hebrew the other books, stopped to translate a few years ago and since then no one to talk about.

Welcome to RAF. We're glad to have you!

(Just a heads up\: your post will probably get moved to the "Introductions and Departures" board.)

Hi Stav! I hope you don't mind, but I moved your intro post to the proper board.

It's great to meet you! I hope that you enjoy your time on the forum! Israel sounds like a very interesting place - I have always wanted to travel there!

Welcome to RAF, stav!  I'm Tara, or Myitt, depending on whether you speak Yeerkish or not ;D 

I've always wanted to go to Israel :D  I'm not sure who the book cover models are, but I think it'd be interesting to know, too...if only we could get them to go back in time 15 years and play the roles in a GOOD tv show!

Hey Tara, fun and nice to meet you too.
Nice to meet people who are interested in Israel .. ;)

So no one ever said the children's names appear on the backs of the books? ...
I searched the web a long time and I could not find information about children who play the characters.
I'd love to know about some things, mainly silly things like "How was photographed all the books? ... There were funny bits that people came to you in the street and turned to you as if you are characters and stories? ... How did you feel to make the computer to live? ... What was your age when you began to be photographed for books? most animals ... what would you want to change yourself? ... read the books yourself? peace ... You passed the next audition you announced you got the job? ... how many children actually filmed the role of characters' Tobias' and 'Marco' that seem to have more than one "....
To be honest, who really did not understand most of their images appeared in this last book, who photographed the girl with black hair? ... Where did the 'Jake' from the rest of the covers of books? ... Except 'Cassie' and AX ', I I have not seen someone I know book covers ...

Here in Israel, with some it's crazy, only translated a total of 18 books from the series (of course without megaMorphs books, andalite and all add-ons ...), the Internet is helping us.
The episodes of the television series Yes we broadcast in Israel, but far more successful books by the opinion of all who I know and love the Animorphs ...

Yeah, I think the general consensus among Animorphs fans is that the show was really, really baaaad....sadly ::)

wHELLcome, Stata!
I'm Vis... I'm Dameg, another RAFian. Come with me, please, I have something to show you. It's here, after this door *Open a heavy door* We call them the RAFprojects. *Lead Stav to a long and dark hallway, with many doors, some in the dark, some with light coming from the other side. Arrive near the first door* Here at your left...

- RAFipedia: http://rafipedia.wetpaint.com/, an encyclopedia headed up by Estelore, our star (a true star, who make light and burn in space... but she has a body to come on Earth);

Next it's...

- the Audiobooks project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0, a full-cast audio version of Animorphs who need more "actors" and voices, headed by Kit Cloudkicker (Jess), MrGuy, Morfowt, and Wildweathel;

Facing it...

- the Graphic Novel project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,416.0.html and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2276.0.html, a Webcomic headed by Gafrash.

You also have...

- the Smiley project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1691.0.html, we make Animated gifs, smileys about Animorphs (Andalites, Hork-Bajirs...);

here and facing it is...

- the Translation project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html, a recently started project/mutual support group for translations into other languages; currently only in French (Tocade, Anidragon and myself), Chinese (Morfowt), Indonesian (Nat), Swedish (Mira and Zana), and Esperanto (Wildweathel); we translate only the volumes never edited in our countries/languages, to make the ebooks;

Next door is for the special project:

- http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3738.0.html: the adventures of the RAFians;

At the end it's for the little projects:

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3810.0.html;

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3911.0.html to make the planets we hear about in Animorphs;

- the paper-RPG project: a role-playing game (on table, with paper, pen and dices...) about the World of Animorphs; I head this project, and it'll be write in French at the beginning, but we need help to find, class and write everything we know about the species, the planets, the powers we see in Animorphs, fix them, see what we keep and what we can't keep (because of the KASU, not clear, exception for the main characters/books, etc.), complete the knowledges about species/planets we know and even create new species/planets...; this project will be on my own website, so if you wanna join, ask me the link ^^;

- the RPG project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,4069.0.html to make a video game about Animorphs, with RPGmaker;

- the Command-line game project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3787.0.html for another kind of video game about Animorphs;

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3773.0.html where we count all the people killed by the Animorphs;

- the RAFkaraoke: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3150.0.html and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3635.msg245735.html#msg245735, where we make songs (and sing them?)...

- the One RAFian On Volume project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=5317.0 where everybody take a picture of him/herself with a volume of Animorphs... <= We need a lot of RAFians to participate! You only need a volume of Animorphs (rented if you don't have any) & a camera/webcam

and some other projects who come and go. Please check the list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/board,13.0.html

*Standing in front of Stata* I hope you enjoyed your visit. Oh, and I also invite you to add your species on this list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html 'coz everybody isn't Human here. And we like to know who is what... For example, as you'll probably see, I'm a Controller. ... and if you want, you can add your age too: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,318.0.html... and say where do you live here: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=5049.0 so Marie can add you on the RAFworld Map!
We also opened a http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=36.0 to teach to each others our languages and other stuffs.

About the models, I think somebody knows, but I don't remember who... Did you try on Hirac Delest?

Now I have to go, I don't invite you for the meal, sorry. *Beginning to go down dark stairs. Stata can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Have fun!
*Dameg disappears into the darkness, Stav is now alone in the hallway*

What did you learn Hebrew words when visiting the Land of Israel? ...

Hmm... jeez, I'm not even sure what I loved most. I did love that, within a couple days of being there, I didn't want to leave. XD Heh. Also I loved Jerusalem, especially the Old City. :)

And... I didn't actually learn much Hebrew.  :-\ I learned how to say yes. Most of the Hebrew I know, I've learned in bits and pieces from my cousins.

Hi, stata! Welcome to RAF ^_^ I hope I'll see more of you around. There are a lot of interesting things here, if you just explore the site!

As for the children on the books... no, I don't think anybody knows their names. I looked a while back and couldn't find anything. They're not famous models or anything. They're just kids. As far as I know, they're not available to contact. I know that there were two models for each character, except Cassie, who only had one. Sorry I can't help you more with that >.<

It's wonderful to have you here :D

Marie and Abby are my wonderful RAFsisters ^_^
