Custom Music Work: trenthian of OCremix needs practice

trenthian · Post by **trenthian** » Sun Jun 05, 2005 7:44 pm

Hello folks,

I need people to contact me on aim over the next few days, if they would like for me to add a custom soundtrack to an anime intro or or such.

I am looking for videos to spot to help train me for a project my friend is doing and the practice would be lovely.

so yeah, I will be writing either classic orchestral

or ochestral/synth/rock hybrids to them.

of course not all who message me will get one done, as i still have to review the actual video.

out of all videos sent or mentioned to me,
I will only be accepting 3 for valid consideration of a custom soundtrack to them.

If you are selected that would then make you the artistic director, in charge of talking to me and relating what you might like to see where, and such, as far as pace and mood goes. one of the 3 I will take super creative license on and completely ignor all art direction, one of the three I will half implement the director and my ideas, and the other, the director will get 2 3rds a say.

if you are interested in helping a brother out so to speak, aim me.

Wow, this is certainly interesting, especially considering the derisive treatment you OCRemixers gave the NES Project.

In any case, I think you may be a bit mistaken. Most people here are editors, not animators.

There's a few animators. Very few. You'd probably have better luck with the machinima crowd, they have way more control over their sources.

It would probably be interesting to give him a completed amv and let him write a new song for it and see how it turns out :p

Make an AMV without sound, then write the music for it? That might be cool. I approve.

It would require a keen sense of rythm. That or just bult it around a drum beat to keep things even. I would be interested to see how it turns out, especially if it was a mood video. Instead of matching the mood of the music, write music to match the mood of the clips.

I've always wondered why noone came up with that yet. Someone mentioned Machinima - and I indeed have seen videos done on this principle (for instance, vids that have multiple audio tracks for the same vid - audio tracks which are mixes made to go along with the visual).

Well, then again, the obvious fact is that we don't have as much control over our footage as we'd like (compared to GMV's)

Looks like pwolf's working on a video to one of your tracks trenthian. Although he might change it soon

just to clear stuff up... anything is game...

I want existing video, original or not. anything would do really. I need the practice.

if you have anime trailers, vg/anime footage or anything, if its avi or mpeg I ideally would like to spot 5 vids, and work on 3.

this would be to train me for my friends project and have some fun in the wait between now and then.

I've already got one video candidate,

I hope it isnt the last.

im really just whoring people out to give me 1-3 minute video assets that would allow me a great deal of musical expression.

of course if someone hear wanted to make an AMV to a click track at 140 -160 bpm I'd totally be down for a collaborative original song for a new amv

of course, you wont have much music to go by besides the click track, but when I get your completed vid, I'd spot it and put music to it.

here is a song Im pimping these days. 95% completed from my game demo OST.

Click me Im irish! You can dl the song there. (MP3) its about 3.4MB
