SilentMartyr Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Sorry for bumping and posting, but i havent seen any good banner or cover art. No offense but the other stuff was lame This took me like 5 minutes using just a picture of a pocketwatch on a table...im also doing a few others but i just though you might want to see this... EDIT:: Finished a second, better one. I wish I was that good, wow. The second one is really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT:: Finished a second, better one. Wow, both of these are beautiful. I like them a lot. As far as cover art goes, I personally think the second one is best. I could picture the first one on the back with the track listing printed off to the side, seeing how it's goot all that open space. I dunno. Just an idea. Nice work.

Global-Trance Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 ... I'm gonna throw down some cover art soon. I'll show you guys in a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 This is so freaking amazing. Interest in the project has just spiked tremendously. I just got a response to an e-mail I sent off to Jillian Goldin (pixietricks, of the new OCRemix "Prayer") and she said she would love to do vocals for the soundtrack. Incredible. I'm sorry if you guys don't know what I'm talking about, but once everything gets worked out with the piece, it will be beautiful. Just wait and see. Oh, and thanks Global-Trance for getting excited. I'm glad you share the same enthusiasm I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderer Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I just got a response to an e-mail I sent off to Jillian Goldin (pixietricks, of the new OCRemix "Prayer") and she said she would love to do vocals for the soundtrack. Incredible. My interest in this project has just gone from casual enthusiasm to unbearable anticipation. WOW, would that be awesome. Please, make that the OCR submission that gets posted along with the release of the project (the lead single in a sense), it would spark so much more interest for this.

Global-Trance Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 My first attempt at cover art for this project. Though grungy, I was able to show a lot of the emotion in it through the mix up of complex and simple images with a soft color (which can be changed to anything I please) to give it a spark of life. If you look hard enough, you can see the Wings of Time that we all know and love. Global-Trance - Chrono Symphonic (Beta Mix) ==>(I tend to title my art this way.) Oops... I should have worked on the banner first... Edit: I'd like to add that the backwards C wasn't my idea... it was Claado's... I can easily change it of course.

Kanjika Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Nice work Global Trance...yours certainly are more polished but i spent little time on mine! I like the way you used the page of music rathewr than the boring flat picture i used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global-Trance Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I made mine while playing Counter-Strike: Source. Talk about trying to do too many things at once. Edit: Make that Counter-Strike: Source and Devil May Cry 3. Fun times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephfire Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 My favorites thus far are Kanji's "pocketwatch" cover and Global's "betamix" cover. They provide great mood/atmosphere and they don't have any original Chrono Trigger artwork or character sprites blatantly shoved into them just to over-confirm what game we're remixing. They allude to CT in subtle ways without overdoing it. I vote our cover art be one of these (or something like them). It's only my opinion, but I think they capture the essence of this project best (so far). Thumbs up to both. I envy your skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanjika Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Ill add some musical element to the pocketwatch one later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neminem Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Way to get a webhost that has really insanely obtrusive popups, and also has a banner ad for spyware (Gator).

Unless, of course, you happen to have something on-hand... Well, I'd be happy to lend some space to host any files you gave me, minus the mp3s which I see are already hosted elsewhere anyway (I have a limit of about 80 megs, and I typically use about half of it myself). But it'd be at www3.hmc.edu/~afield/<foldername>, unless you know of some way to hide a redirect to something easier. Also I don't have any way to give you access to it yourself, you'd have to zip up your update and send it my way, and I could put the update up. But if you want it, I've got it.

Hyper Inferno Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Just throwing out an idea to you Global. Instead of just one dude sitting down, could you make that background people at the end of time talking to the guru? It seems like it would work pretty well.

Global-Trance Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I kinda like it as it is. That guy sitting there is looking at the Wings of Time as it flies overhead. Thanks for the input though. I can kinda see what you're getting at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted March 25, 2005 Author Share Posted March 25, 2005 Hmmmmmm...it seems sort of strange having a guy wearing a backpack and sneakers on the cover of a Chrono Trigger remix album. I dunno...maybe something slightly more related to the Middle Ages or the Chrono universe? Also, the green tint may not be the best color. Perhaps you could try it in some sort of blue/violet, perhaps a mixture. Try it out and see if it looks any better. Otherwise, it's incredible. Complex, and yet everything is connected. And the Epoch thing is really cool, too. Nice job. The logo is just plain badass. And neminem, I have file hosting out the wazoo, an FTP server with virtually unlimited access. It's actual WEBSITE stuff I need. But thanks for the offer. ~.C.S.~ P.S. I'm glad you're so enthused, Wanderer. You won't be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a quick sample of what my style of cover art is... anything on there is easy to edit. As for the guy sitting there... well... that represents my view of the connection between us and Chrono Trigger. The guy (represents us... modern day) looking back on the Wings of Time flying by (our past/memories)... but yea... I can get deep with this stuff lol. I'll just play with the color, because right now that guy connects with the Epoch and vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeality Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 I didn't plan on releasing this until it was complete, but only three minimal songs are missing that I don't think are being covered. Here is the Chrono Trigger sheet music. As of now, Disc 2 is just beginning to upload, so if I posted this FRESH to you, wait awhile. http://www.herograw.com/ocremix/Black/Publications/Chrono%20Trigger%20Sheet%20Music/ Hope that helps.

Being Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 If this becomes a huge success, perhaps we can see a Chrono Cross Symphonic sometime perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claado Shou Posted March 26, 2005 Author Share Posted March 26, 2005 Hmm...I think it might be best to do a different game series after this project. Besides, I already promised pixietricks I would write her a Zelda movie script, so...you never know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Being Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Zelda is cool, too. I would really like to see Grim Fandango remixed, but I'm not sure what people could do with it: http://www.grimfandango.net/?page=soundtrack. However, I can dig Zelda. Why not? Chrono Trigger owns. I love your work, and am currently ecstatic about this project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
