Exactly =) I Quote here.

A fairly better thing you can do is ask to a creator if he/she could do that or that for you, this is at least what I think. You can ask for a favour, or at least propose some concepts, and as bum said, someone could take it :P


Thank everyone for posting and giving me some very good suggestions.

In an effort to use said suggestions, here is a link to a site to download some of our musical material. If any of you find inspiration or ideas that pertain to any of these musical selections please feel free to be creative.

If any of you do use any of the posted songs pleas just let me know so I can check out the handy work.

Here is the URL:
http://www.soundclick.com/distilleryworksrecordings

Just click on the music link and there you are.

Please note that DistilleryWorks Recordings does most of its work with hiphop/rap acts. I have come to notice that rap is not really the type of music a lot of individuals like to use. Therefore, I have also posted for download MP3's of a rock/alt group we are working with (Zero Hour) as well as a few instrumentals. Pay close attention to the genre of each song. Hopefully, there will be something for some of you to want to use.

Again thank everyone who responded to my initial post and offered feedback. I have stated before I just wanted something cool for each of the artists to see. Thank anyone who can help with that mission.

Feel free to contact me at
jt_1995@yahoo.com
or
jt@distilleryworks.com

Appreciate the help

I'll check those musics =) Sadly I can't at home due to my connection (Technically 56k, but using it I don't go over 1kb/s), but be sure I'll check.

I'm surprised so many people just simply attacked you before you had even posted samples of your music. I would like to think that our community has enough of a level-headed personality to say "Sorry, we can't accept your money," rather than to just attack your grammar.

I hope someone picks up some of your music, because it's actually very good stuff. I happen to be a pretty big fan of hip-hop, but I can understand why a lot of people here may choose against it. Sometimes, it can prove to be very difficult to edit to, and it's hard to find an anime that can really fit some of the lyrics, especially since rap/hip-hop has the stereotype of "bitches and hos." Sadly, I don't really have any time on my hands to try and make something like this, but I wish you the best of luck in the future!

Hey, someone has to stand up for the English teachers out there who tried to firmly teach us that if you don't have propper grammer, no one will (read "should") take you seriously.

I can understand that point, and I must agree with you. Besides for the stereotypical things that hip hop seems to have, I can imagine that it can be a pain in the rear to edit, especially if the editor is trying to go with some lip synching.

Thank you for posting I really appreciate the feedback.

As far as my grammar is concerned, in my profession you have to be able to adapt to a number of different dialects, languages, and slang. None of which have any bearing on the fact that some people type better than others. Also alas, I rarely proof my typing for forums. Why you ask (or not), I would like to think that it would not be the one dimensional judgment stick for intelligence for anyone, let alone myself.

Hey, has my English improved since the first post? (Now I’m paranoid :shock:).

As still if the one who err in grammar is not native english, (so his first language is by far NOT english). For example here in Italy, happen the same, if you don't actually use well grammar.. No one will never take you seriously. :roll:

It wasn't my intention to be cruel. I apologize. I honestly did not comprehend what you were trying to convey and I wanted to understand it.

hmm every1 says it would b illigal for u to pay us to make an amv to this but i heard that our work is protected by law. If we add a single effect and edit it to the point where we don't just show the whole episode in the exact order it came in its considered our work. and we'd have the permission from the bands to use their music two correct? then why would it b illigal? I'd love to be paid for my hard work, but then again i'm not quite as skilled as others nor do i have as good of programs as some others, but why shouldn't we get paid? On this site we make it free so we all can enjoy one another's but if a band asks for a amv and offers to pay why shouldn't we accept? just my opinion, but knowing this site unless i get lucky im gonna be bashed by most of the people who respond to this... but if someone that knows more about this it'd be kewl if u tune me in. ^_~

You've obviously never learned a single thing about copyright, 'fair use', or proper english. Can't help you with the last one but if you search for "Are AMVs Illegal" or a similar phrase you'll find plenty of threads on the 'Org covering the subject in detail, to death.

In short, you have no idea what you're talking about and should probably shut up before you possibly mislead others into believing anything you've said.

I quote Dokool and there's not any doubt everyone will do this. Sasuke, if you want to know something more about this, think a little and you should understand =) The only way to get $ for this type of things is go to an University studing Publicity/Cinema and than luckly find a way in the work life. What you said actually go exactly in the opposite direction of the objective and ideal this site (and most of us) has.
