No. It's happened in the past but most of those people were local. It's problematic because we need to control the audio fidelity in our studio, and most of our fans are not near us and it leaves several problems:
1. Mic Quality/Room quality doesn't match what we have.
2. Directing people remotely isn't much of an option.
3. If I ever need someone it's usually just a fill in line, which I tend to have a lot of people to draw from locally.
4. (This is not meant to be offensive) A lot of people who think they can act/perform, can't.
5. It's an extensive amount of paperwork that has to be arranged, NDA's, releases, etc...

It's more of a headache than what it's worth, but we have done some competitions in the past where we draw in talent. The zombie voices we used from fans were modified heavily, so I didn't have to worry about the fidelity that much, but it still was an issue on some where the audio tore.

I can't tell you how many e-mails I get from people asking to be in the show, and it just takes more time than usually what we have available with our very rushed production schedule.
