Re: GameStop Bunny is back and Kicking A** - needs music (38 replies, posted in General Discussion)
would you prefer somthing as fast as that kung fu track? or would something a bit slower be ideal? would multiple entries be ok? or just one per person/group?
You are welcome to submit more than one track ... with that being said, please do not submit everything you have ever written ... If you have a few that you think could work, send them over. As far as the pacing - nothing too slow - just moving at a nice pace - perhaps picking up as he moves along. I don't want to say too much because I don't want to sway your creative to a certain direction. This is pretty open at this point.
Thanks

Topic: GameStop Bunny is back and Kicking A** - needs music (38 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Greetings and salutations all - It's TheFly from Reel FX Creative Studios again.
GameStop is back and has yet another scenario for our poor, drunk, and poor Bunny friend, Buck to deal with.
This time Buck is trying to make his way to a black Wii controller - he comes to a ninja with a white belt - one whack and done. He proceeds to the second guy who is a purple belt - two whacks and done - then to the black belt ninja - he tries a triple combo but nothing - ninja tears him up. Moral of the story - can't beat a black belt ... product tie in - black Wii stuff. Same 8 bit environment ...
The direction is simple but fun ... think 80's karate games on Nintendo or Super Nintendo.
Here is a reference to one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szyHH_ywWI8
This is pretty open to interpretation - the setting is in Japan ... he is in kung fu fights - pay attention to the the music in the reference as the guy is walking (may need to turn up your speakers)
I will need all your music ideas back by 5 CST Monday, April 26th.
Payment and licensing terms will be the same as previous work. 1 year buyout for TV, Radio and Web - $500. As two artists found out, if we re-new or re-vamp the spot and re-air it then you get paid each time.
Anyways, I do hope you have a great weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday!
Thanks

Hey guys - thanks again for submitting your tracks!
The track that was chosen was from ............ OxygenStar! This marks the second time one of his tracks was chosen.
Thanks again for everything - there is still one other track that I may need your help with in the near future but at this point, that job is still floating around in space - we are waiting on it to firm up so we can get moving.
Talk to you soon!!

Akira, I had a track of mine used for this and got a W8 to fill out. No problems (I'm in Germany). Contact with TheFly was excellent, no worries there.
Thanks for your help with this. Looking forward to hearing what you submit!

That's pretty funny.
Do we have to issue W9 forms or some such stuff? That would render anyone outside USA ineligible for this task.
There will be a W9 for anyone in the states to fill out (for payment purposes) ... anyone outside of the US will fill out a W8 - basically the international W9. Everyone can play along - this sandbox is big enough for everyone.

What's up everyone?!?! It's TheFly from Reel FX Creative Studios again.
When it rains it pours GameStop commercials. I have yet another need for a music track. Just a heads up there may be some one more in the next few weeks - so if you aren't able to play along this time, there will be another chance.
Trivia: Buck the Bunny is played by a guy in NY - the announcer is a guy in LA. Reel FX is in Dallas. Coast to coast, baby! If you throw in the people whose music have been selected - add Canada and Germany in the mix. Global!!
ANYWAYS ...
This time Buck is in a major hurry - Everything that he would usually stop for (coins, carrots, dirty mags, and booze) doesn't even slow him down. He is haulin' it ... Same 8 bit environment ...
With Buck being in such a hurry, speed is of the essence in this spot, a slow track is not going to be chosen. From our client: "Primitive. Fast-paced and urgent. Bright and fun.” So, it can be a little tricked up with the electronic feel, but nothing that you would hear at an 8bit rave (if that makes sense).
I will need all your music ideas back by 5 CST Monday, March 22nd. If they come in after that I can not promise they will be pulled and presented.
Payment and licensing terms will be the same as previous work. 1 year buyout for TV, Radio and Web - $500. As two artists found out, if we re-new or re-vamp the spot and re-air it then you get paid each time.
Anyways, I do hope you have a great weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday!
