Looking for a VN team (Artists, Musicians, Writers, VA)

#1 Post by ciggy » Sat Nov 15, 2014 11:53 pm

Update 11/16 - The writing position has been filled. For those who still inquired we will keep your contact just in case we need more. Thanks!
The musician position is filled! :)
We're mostly looking for artists right now, and maybe more voice actors to keep in contact with when needed. Thanks!
Artists positions are now filled!
Thanks to everyone for replying so quickly, although the core positions are all filled, we are sill looking for voice actors to consider in the future.

Hey, I'm Ciggy.

My partner and I are trying to start up a VN series. It will be available on PC & Mobile Devices, but before we can do that, we actually need to create this Visual Novel.

Right now, it's just of gleam in our eyes but we're really positive and motivated to make this dream happen and hope we can hire like-minded people to help us out on this journey.
So I'm sure before you'd inquire you'd want to know a bit about this VN. Well, to be completely honest the drawing board is blank.
Nevertheless, I will update this thread as more information is revealed; all I can give you right now is a summary of the intended storyline. Although, we are looking to hire a writer, so it could change.

Story:
Genre: Mystery
*Will be updated*

Hiring:
(1) Writer ( Currently you'd be working with me, the other writer and we'll work together to create an amazing story)
(1-3) Artist ( We do plan on this game becoming a series, so we'll need an artist who is long term, we are unsure of how many artist we'll need. That's something that will be updated as well)
(1) Musicians ( Not a lot of information here, will be updated soon)
-Optional
(?) Voice Actors ( So far, I can tell you that the main character will be a male. The cast will be pretty small as the storyline surrounds this boy and his close group of friends. I will update with characters when we've come up with that information)

Payment:
This visual novel game will be available to purchase on PC and mobile devices once complete. Because of this, included in your payments would be the purchase of commercial rights.
Everyone has their own price, and because we don't want to low-ball anyone, we'd prefer if you'd listed your base price for your services and we could negotiate from there.
Please consider:
A base price for your hire and services (This should cover payment for the entire 1st project)
Your purchase of rights to your work (If you feel to charge for this, that's fine. We will include a contract that you can e-sign. Of course, you will be properly credited)
* We will only pay through PAYPAL ( as it's trusted, and safe)

Our Team
As mentioned early, I go by Ciggy, you'll be dealing with me the most, my partner is the one funding this project and will be handling the marketing/publicity side of things. We're both in our early 20s, gamers at heart (so if you ever want to game it up, you know who to contact), but right now, we’re setting aside our controllers to focus on this.
Currently we'd work on the weekends but as the project starts to form, we'll dedicate more time on it. Therefore, we'd want people who are dedicated, and have an open schedule.

So, I hope I haven't bored you to death with the details, if anyone's interested please contact us with the information below.
You can reply here, message this account, or whatever works best for you. I really appreciate the time for having a look and hopefully we can be working with ya' soon! :)

Code: Select all

Name/Nickname:
Age: ( We'd like to hire 18+ but 16+ is fine. This is so we can pay you and that you'd generally have more control of your schedule)
Position:
Portfolio: ( Link to previous work or a sample)
Pay: ( Name your price)
Contact: ( How can we contact you?)

There's no deadline, but we will update the thread as positions are filled. If you have any questions please let us know.Thanks.

Will the base price be payed during the work or only after sales? I would like to apply either way but I will say that it should go into a different section if you only get compensation after the game is finished. :D

Hi :)
No we're paying upfront or during the work. What we want is to keep a sort of team working with us, throughout the series ( and just in general), that way after the sales and everything we could offer bonuses before the next episode. Then again on the next episode you'd get paid a base price.

So, I mean we do want to pay you for your work whether the game is successful or not, but, if it is successful then you get bonuses haha. We hope that's pretty fair. Thanks for asking!

Anyway, as "feeling the game" is something really important for me when I compose, I would like to learn more about the plot, if possible. Thank you for your attention ;)

Name/Nickname: Aviala
Age: 19
Position: Artist; I can do character design, sprites and CG, but not backgrounds. I don't have much experience on menus and other UI stuff but I can try to do them if needed.
Portfolio: You can check out my PB art folder here for character design sketches and other things, mostly WIPs: http://s781.photobucket.com/user/Minya40/library/ART
My tumblr art blog: http://aviala-doodles.tumblr.com/
Pay: Depends on the amount of work that needs to be done. I usually charge around 10-20 euros for a sprite and 20-70 euros for a CG, depending on the complexity. I don't charge extra for the rights as long as I get some kind of bonuses if the product sells well.
Contact: PM. I check the forums at least a couple of times a week (usually daily). You can also send me an ask on my tumblr art blog. I prefer to keep in touch with my clients with Skype but PM's are fine too.

I'm currently studying at an university and I'm also working on a couple of VN projects but my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm very interested in this project because it seems that you have a long term plan, which is a huge plus. Hope to hear back from you!
