Hi folks !
DannySkunk is looking for a composer to hire.
I'll let him explain that better than I
DannySkunk wrote:Me and a friend of mine are starting on a game review show. It's based on being able to game without blowing $60 every time you want to play a new game, so we'll usually be discussing older games. The show will be done with voice acting over footage and an image of the sort of "mascot" of our channel, who will kind of emote a bit in the bottom right corner. It'll all be in the pilot, which I hope the composer will watch first to get the general feel of the show. As for when the Pilot will be available for the composer, the current circumstances for the both of us make it uncertain, but we do have a lot of footage, and the basics of the writing down. We'll probably just tweak the script, do the voice acting, and then the editing. Maybe in a scale of weeks.
Anyway, As for the song itself, I was hoping to have something kind of catchy; something real short to play when the title card comes up, but with a good hook that people will kind of remember. I was hoping to have something that kind of goes with the feel of the show, to make it more memorable, but it's not a requirement in the strictest sense. I was also maybe thinking of doing a "Full version" for an end-slate. Something still a little short, but more filled out and loop-able so we can have end slates for varying lengths of time.
Since it's a game review show, I was hoping for a more chiptune/electronic sound, so I'd need a composer that would be willing to do something synthetic rather than with actual instruments. Although, I think me and my partner both agree that the sort of "club mix" sound isn't really what we're going for. Does that make sense? I hope it makes sense.
Voilà !
Don't hesitate to poke him for further details or for appliance !
Keep up the great work, guys !

I totally don't mind smaller scale commissions, but full length tracks take exponentially longer for me and I wouldn't be comfortable trying to fit that in with my schedule. Better to start small anyways, right? :3
I would love to see the Pilot footage. Send me a private YT link when it's done and we'll discuss it from there.
Cheers!

Would you like to incorporate game sounds into it?
What ownership do you want? If you expect full ownership rights so you can even sell dvds, youll need to provide financial compensation
What are you offering in return?
1) For the main intro, it should definitely be no longer than 10 seconds. As for the end slate version, anywhere between 30 and 60 seconds would be more than enough.
2) Absolutely!
3) Full disclosure, this is for a series on YouTube. We don't intend to monetize unless it unexpectedly catches on. It's a strange grey area, that I'm sure that I can work out with anyone that would like to help.
4) Money; I fully intend to commission someone, as in pay for it. How much, I'm not sure; I presume the "how much" breaks down to what the artist finds to be reasonable for this song length.
Thanks for asking!
