Hi,

I'll be explaining the project as a whole, briefly, now. Details can be gotten from Kuugen in the OCremix IRC channel.

The visual novel, ( acronym VN )
(for those who do not know what that is might want to read this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_novel )
is based on the japanese original anime franchise called Puella Magi Madoka Magica
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puella_Magi_Madoka_Magica ) which is an original story and franchise created by SHAFT Animations.
By all means and considerations, it is a huge franchise with a massive following despite it's young age.

Now for the actual beef. We, fans of the franchise, are creating a fanmade visual novel by and for fans of the franchise. We're aiming for a high quality product that we can be proud of to present to the masses.

In case you wonder what the team looks like

- Kuugen / Kuugenthefox: Writer / Project Leader
- Raijenki: Programmer
- nvm: Programmer
- Saderis / deras_bgt : CG Artist
- froznkamui: CG Artist
- dantiger: Digital painter
- meiji: Artist
- Kuhaa: Grammar/Spelling/Punctation/Wording Editor
- DrmChsr0: Content Editor
- Shadowi / Jesujej: Content Editor
- Rynex: BG Artist.


What we really need is someone to compose ORIGINAL tracks for the VN. Right now I cannot say how many tracks will be requiered but even ONE track would already mean a lot to us.

This is a non-profit project, and while we are technically looking at the option of being ABLE to sell the finished product at Comiket, that's too far in the future to even talk about.

We are really hurting for original music, so if you love the franchise, please participate!
The IRC channel for the VN is #madokagame on irc.rizon.net and the forum is http://forums.magicauniverse.com/index.php
in both cases, look for Kuugen if you decide to participate.

To be completely honest, I've never heard of the show or know anything about it's music...but I'm really wanting to do more work with music so I can build somewhat of a resume.

This is just a quick post, but I'm interested in this. I will check out the source in a little while when I have another minute to sit down. ...And yes, I write original compositions. lol

The OST of the source material is composed by Kajiura Yuki ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuki_Kajiura )
There are many 'mysterious' or 'sad' sounding pieces, but the music for the VN doesn't necessarily have to be alike to the source material OST.

Interesting. I find myself to write things with a slight sadness to them, but it's not overly sad.

I'll write something up, or just send you something I've written, to see if you're interested in having me.

That's nice. The novel is very dark though, so you can 200% on the despair and sadness.

Cool beans. I've sent you some of my work so you can get an idea of what I'm working with, software-wise, and the kind of soundscapes and feelings I can produce.

If you want to hear silly music listen to the song "Wandering around the castle" other perky sounding songs such as "Welcome To The Kingdom Of Saphixia" I also work on darker songs as well.

Since Dash vanished without a trace and I don't know if he's ever going to come back ( it's been way over a month ) I'm looking for someone new
the same things from the initial post apply, just we have more progress now
Talk to Kuugen in the ocremix irc channel or at irc.rizon.net #madokagame

Ok, apparently I accidentally removed the most important part of the information. I'm saying it here again and added it back to the initial post. This is a non-profit project by fans for fans.

Here is some sample art

Really funny that people are disappearing from the project :-D
Well it's for free, so you see my point...
I also worked or still working for Visual Novels for free, but i have conditions that shouldn't be broken...
If you agree to them, we can work together...:smile:

And i also can give you a guarantee, i never run away from any project, which i agreed to...

Not sure how much Kuugen checks OCRemix forums so I'll let you know that the position is certainly filled (by me). There was just one runaway, well in the music sector that i'd heard of and i'm not planning on making it two :).
These mysterious conditions do intrigue me though.

That's good to hear :smile:
The conditions are very important to me... but i think you have some too...
Because without some you would be .... -.- yeah.... XDDD
Well i have other work to do right now... so have fun in composing...
