[Questions about Animated Music Video]

I have a feeling like that will cost much more than 8000$ for 60 seconds then 😵 

But yes contacting art schools and such seems like a great idea, thank you @john

I think like that it should also be a lot cheaper than taking that service from professional studios. The only problem will be finding someone who can create the style of anime I'm looking for. 

 

[Questions about Animated Music Video]

oh no i can't 😅 I can produce music but not anime music videos. That's why I thought about hiring someone or a studio that could do that. 

[Questions about Animated Music Video]

Hey everybody. Me and my colleague are slowly working on turning stuff serious. So I was wondering about how much professional music videos costs. Especially animated ones. Japanese anime like would be best (the high quality movie anime stuff i mean). I wasn't able to find much online. Just one website gave a price of 4000-8000$ for 60 seconds.

Is it possible to find cheaper ones or might this one be already cheap in that topic?

 

I really have NO idea about the market 😅

[J+1 - Alleyways (Orchestral Cover by Tanju Demirhan and Carl Davies)]

Thank you @john and @Gtar Pkr for the critique 🙂 I will foward it to Carl. Tho currently he isn't in conditions fit to sing, so new recordings will take some time and we also have two other projects waiting as well. Untill then I'll see if I can improve the overall vocal sound settings. 

 

@john the setup i used:

Strings - Cinematic Strings from Cinematic Studio Series

Brass - Cinebrass 2 from Cinesamples

Toms - Ferrum from Keepforest (free library)

Risers/Various Hits - Different free libraries from Keepforest

Other Percussions - Deep Percussion Beds from Cinesamples and various percussions from EastWest Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra Gold Edition.

Drumkit - Samples from FL Studio

Keys - Harmor 

SynthBass - Harmor

Reverb - Blackhole from Eventide

 

All arranged in FLStudio

 

I didn't record the vocals. Carl did the vocal recording. I wrote/arranged and recorded all instrumental lines and did the mixing.

[J+1 - Alleyways (Orchestral Cover by Tanju Demirhan and Carl Davies)]

Hey everybody!

I guess this is my first musical post here on Songstuff. 

It's an orchestral/cinematic cover of J+1 and DrDisrespect's Alleyways. Arranged by TDM (me) and vocals by Carl Davies (link below).

The original version is a Synthwave song which is pretty simple but still totally great. I tried to make it a bit more interesting with some different instruments and variations in melody. 

Hope you like it 😁

I'll keep that in mind @VoiceEx, thank you 😄

And my brother is bringing his Oculus when he visits me in about a month, gonna be my first time on Beat Saber 😅

Thank you for the warm welcome @Gtar Pkr 😄
Yes all my Electro-Pop projects are still a bit far from being finished (same as tons of orchestral ones). But the reason is that I don't find enough time to really sit down and finish those. Sometimes I also lack the mood to work on them. Though this time I had another project to finish first - my second collab with Carl Davies (will publish that soon... hopefully). The newest song in my "spotlights" on Soundcloud is the first collab.
 

I hope you meant "bright" in a good way 😅 I'm still trying to get a better quality. 

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

Thanks @VoiceEx, this will really help me on my first try 😁

I should have an usb-condenser microphone somewhere at home (it's from Guitar Hero 😂) i guess it should work. 

Problem is that I need free time for that. If i can manage to try it this week i will totally load up my results 😅

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

Oh those are some good idea to be honest. You really made me think about creating my own sounds. I mean, I thought about it some time ago but not really seriously. 

I think now it's a good time to try something new 😄

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

I sometimes combine the same instruments of different brands to get a rich/different sound. But other than that i only play with EQ, compressors some effects and other dynamics to get a different sound or I get myself a new library 😅 . I focused a bit too much on my writing skills than my editing skills 🙃

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

I'm not sure if I'm good enough to create my own samples that way but I guess it's worth a try. For now I use the libraries below (copied from another forum i wrote this topic about):

Afflatus Chapter I Strings (very good library but didn't use it too much for now)

Impact Soundworks - Shreddage

Hey @VoiceEx

Wow that's a huge list 😅 Thank you so much! That will really come in handy 😄

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

I can very well understand that, it's the same on my side. 

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

Hey there Troy! Nice to meet you! "Tonedead" is quite an interesting name 😄 hope you're still doing well with music 😜

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

Likewise @An Abstract Mouse 🙂 

Lets hope my music taste won't give you much of a struggle 😅

[New from the Mediterranean Area]

Thank you very much @Peggy! 

I'll certainly have a look around 🙂 

 

Hi @john, it's good to be here 🙂 I'm excited myself to listen to what the other members shared on the forum.

Hello everybody! My name is Tanju Demirhan but I call myself TDM (Tanju Demirhan Music) since it's easier for people to remember 😅

I'm a turkish selftaught composer and guitarist. I was born in Germany but live in Antalya (Turkey) rightnow - my German is stronger than my Turkish and English 🤣

I'm actually a chemist with a master in Biochemistry/Biotechnology but you know how it is, most people study what they don't really wanna do their entire life.

I write instrumental music, most of the time orchestral/trailer/movie music (I guess it's called Epic Orchestral?), some rock and metal music but I also got myself a bit into Electro Pop (still none published).

I'm open to almost any kind of collaboration as long as it's something I'm used to but would also try new things 😅

But I don't sing or write lyrics - that's really out of my talents 🙃
