How To Reach Obsidian PR

[magician]

Greetings;

 

I am willing to send Obsidian Entertainment a demo reel of my music soundtrack works and previous work details for consideration and for archiving purposes in case of future referencing options. However, as music stuff in game biz is usually a contract work, there are no information to be found regarding how to apply for such a reference at Obsidian's website. Usually, especially in music business, you need consolidation first to send in a demo tape due to copyright issues and overwhelming applications etc.

 

I am wondering how that works with Obsidian and willing to make this "applicational process" work out without having managers or client representatives to do buzzing calls or e-mails and so.

 

So, any help is welcome.

You can feel free to supply audio samples at the address in the link listed above. We cannot guarantee that everything will be heard, however. I don't think we really have any kind of application you need to send out if you're looking for contract work.

Ah, ninja'd

 

Thank you for your reply Matthew. I will send a promo package there then .

Cool, thanks! I'll try to make sure it gets in the right hands.

Ok, one final question before I submit.

 

Is there any size limitation to files? Ermm.. When you submit artworks, you can send them in 72 dpi 1000x1000 size etc but when presenting sound, it has to be in good quality which increases the file size... Considering that I would submit several tracks at least...

 

You know, it would be a disaster to have an issue like "Some idiot sent 60mb rar file *pheeww*... there, gone" while on the other end of the line, I am like "ermm, did they receive it, I wonder..."

 

lol...

Sadly, my mail bounces back

[Matthew Rorie]

We have a 10 meg limit on incoming emails, I believe. Can you send something physical, like a CD? Or do you have a website with downloadable samples?

Website(s), sure, I have. I uploaded a RAR file there with 8-9 tracks included. I will send the link then near to the CV / Resume and cover letter, as well as the web page link.

 

Thanks again for the help

 

 

EDIT: Mail sent. Thank you so much for your help Matthew!

Hi Everyone!

 

I'd like to apply for something special sound wise:

 

I know there is going to be computers and terminals galore in the game as they are trademarks of the Fallout universe. I would love a chance to write jingles and/or sound fx for all the computer systems in the game. I have a large collection of vintage computers that I make 100% original music and jingles with for companies like Disney, Microsoft, Nokia, Sony, etc. I don't sample preexisting music and/or fx, I make my own using classic computers and vintage game consoles...Im a big fan of fallout and would love to participate.

 

Here is my bio: http://www.8bitweapon.com/bio.html

 

Here are music samples: http://www.8bitweapon.com/music.html

 

Will this post be enough or should I send a CD to the address above?

 

Thank you in advance,

 

-Seth

 

PS- I made my own post nuke shooter for the c64 called "Silo64". You can download it for free and play it on an emulator. You can also download some industrial/dance music inspired by Fallout and its father Wasteland there too! http://www.silo64.com

Awesome site.

 

Your bio link is broken though (does that mean you don't exist?)

[8 Bit Weapon]

Thanx!

Haha, you made it with SEUCK! Damn, I had fun with that game editor back in the day! I think I still have an old, finished game I made on that lying around somewhere in an attic. Maybe I should upload it to the internet before the floppy disc demagnetizes itself?

 

Anyhow, very cool website and I hope you'll get a job!
