Professional Composer / Sound Designer

Submitted by DevinPolaski on

Hello everyone,

I love the idea of this project, and think the results so far have been incredible. I'd like to contribute my skills as a composer and sound designer to this project if the opportunity is still available; even if for just one song.

I'm a huge fan of the Elder Scrolls series, although admittedly Skyrim is the only one I own. I've deeply appreciate Skyrim's soundtrack and have a solid understanding of the tone and style.

I've been composing original music for films, videos, and games for about 6+ years, and have around 300+ original compositions under my belt. My style has gone anywhere from orchestral ambience to electronic dance to jazz to creepy and haunting, and anything in between. Admittedly, I don't have a ton of tunes that actually fit an Elder Scrolls-esque theme, but it is certainly a creative endeavor I'd love to embark on, and past songs I've composed certain have laid a foundation for me to succeed.

If you'd like to sample a few of my songs, here are some links to a few that I think are somewhat close to the style that we're going for with this project:

Please let me know the best way I can help out, and how I could get about getting started with a specific task. Thank you, and I look forward to contributing to this great project!

I have to say i love some of your work. I don't play on any instrument and I'm not even remotely close to the music/sound recording for this project - but I'm damn sure we can use someone with your skills. And soundtracks in games/movies were always very important for me so I mean it :) Best way to see what can be done is probably contacting with Dragomir and Gigaflare or just writing in the right topic. Personally I would love to hear your attempt on creating a soundtrack based on Morrowind one.

Welcome to Skywind, Devin! 

Your resume is really impressive, and the samples you've provided really show that you'll be a fantastic asset to the sound team. I love the atmosphere of your music - there's a lot of presence and power to it and will be a perfect fit for the soundtrack we have in mind for the project. 

 

I encourage you to look at this thread (http://morroblivion.com/forums/skyrim/skywind-development-forums/music-and-sound/7125) to get a breakdown of what there is to do with music. 

 

If by chance you also want to tackle SFX, which is another department in great need of help, you can visit; http://morroblivion.com/forums/skyrim/skywind-development-forums/music-and-sound/6512. 

 

If you have any question, do not hesitate to ask Dragomir, Gigaflare, Eloth or myself for assistance. We will be happy to help you in any way we can to help you in your creativity :)

Thanks, tommythegun! I appreciate it. Just uploaded my first piece for Skywind in the main Music Hub post. Really looking forward to contributing to this fantastic project.

Already heard it and i find it amazing. I hope you stay with us and create other wonderful soundtracks for the project. There are a lot of skilled music artists around here lately but not many can grasp the Morrowind spirit so good. Anyway - welcome and enjoy your stay! ;)
