Gilleece Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Hey there everyone. I'm new to these forums. I came over after I saw Abadoss post this competition on gamedev.net I have been working on an entry, should have it finished by tonight or tommorrow at the latest. I am taking amore lonely sad theme, like walking down a street at night time, an alley way, where the light doesn't have place and your all alone. Just my interpretation of the theme given. I was originally going to write a funk 80's style piece [like the police's "message in a bottle" maybe but it just ended up that I started writing this other piece] Its a piece for a string quartet. When I have it recorded please cut me slack on the sound quality as I can only afford Eastwest Symphonic Orchestra Silver edition at the moment! Good to be here! Quote
Zephyr Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Its a piece for a string quartet. When I have it recorded please cut me slack on the sound quality as I can only afford Eastwest Symphonic Orchestra Silver edition at the moment! Good to be here! lol! That's ten times better than what most of us have, don't worry about it, most of us are just starting out and this is practice for us, I'm sure if you're using EWQLSO it'll be fine. There aren't really any standards for this compo, so just have fun and submit something! Quote
Abadoss Posted June 26, 2008 Author Posted June 26, 2008 So, just a bit of random news... apparently, a company in Vietnam was looking into purchasing the copyright for CMC... got contacted and everything... I have a feeling they didn't quite pay attention to all the details on that one... Quote
Zephyr Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Haha, claim rights to it and make some money off this deal! On second thought, don't, we don't want casualties. Quote
Gilleece Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Submitted my piece! Just a question: Is it the people on the forum who vote? Quote
Abadoss Posted June 27, 2008 Author Posted June 27, 2008 Yup. Anyone on any of the listed forums can vote. Quote
xRisingForce Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Yup. Anyone on any of the listed forums can vote. Did you get my entry, Abadoss? Quote
Gilleece Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Yup. Anyone on any of the listed forums can vote. Thanks for clearing that up for me! Quote
Abadoss Posted June 27, 2008 Author Posted June 27, 2008 Did you get my entry, Abadoss? I did. ten characters Quote
Paladin Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Emailed my entry to you abadoss - hope you get it. Quote
Abadoss Posted June 28, 2008 Author Posted June 28, 2008 Yup. I got it. As for everyone else, all entries are due in tonight by midnight (Pacific Standard Time). Quote
blue.nocturne Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Oh, this will be a tough and close match for sure. I expect a lot of ties. Lots of good entries and I'm surprised there was no crazy jazz entry, nonetheless this will be a very fun voting round. (Abadoss posts results around 1:00-2:00 AM PST btw if you're curious.) PS: Sean's entry is not downloadable. Quote
Gilleece Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 The link for Blue Nocturne's piece and my own are broken. Also my name is Sean Gilleece not Sean Gilleese lol [happens all the time] Quote
JH Sounds Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Gah! I was hoping to listen to this "album" today... Quote
Abadoss Posted June 29, 2008 Author Posted June 29, 2008 Should be good now. Both were the fault of typoes... Quote
Gilleece Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Both are working now! Thanks Abadoss! Can't wait to hear peoples opinions on all the pieces, some great ones in there! Quote
Mladen Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Sounds like a fun competition and good way to challenge yourself. the quality of the entries is generally very high too, so congrats everyone on their work. Will send my votes in, then may take part in the next round (its open to anybody, right?). Quote
Abadoss Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 Yeah. Anyone can enter (assuming they haven't been banned for doing something like trying to pass off someone else's piece as their own). Anyone can vote. Quote
Mladen Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 (assuming they haven't been banned for doing something like trying to pass off someone else's piece as their own). . wow... people actually try to do that? thats.... kind of sad Quote
Paladin Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 My apologies for the low master level on my entry. Might want to turn up the speakers a bit when listening, cheers. Quote
JH Sounds Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Mine is a bit low too, which makes Blue.Nocturne's sound even louder. Quote
Zephyr Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 Good turnout this time, good amount of people and a wide range of styles of music. I'll hopefully get time to write up my critiques tomorrow. Good job/luck everyone! Quote
Gilleece Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 I turned up mine from when I had recorded it, but it too is probably still low! Quote
blue.nocturne Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Ahh very sad, Abadoss usually is very prompt and posts results/entries by now. Unless there was a tie! Or maybe he just got too sleepy... Quote
