Application Thread for "The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow Insturments"

[XskywardX]

Hello, I am creating this game called “The Legend of Zelda: The Shadow Instruments”. I’m not just making some old fanfiction or an idea for a new game. I’m really making the game, but I need some help with that. That’s why I’m making this application thread. I will have the available jobs and how to fill out the application below.
I was originally planning on taking over the “Zelda World” project by Packers Remakes. They were making a Zelda MMORPG of “The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time” and “The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask”. They dropped the project in June, 2011. I’ve decided other than taking over that project though, because of obvious copyright issues. So I’m creating an entirely new game with minimal copyrighted content. So all I’m using is the title (possibly not even that, I might change the name to something other than “The Legend of Zelda”) and four characters: Link, Zelda, Navi, and Ganon/Ganondorf (also the six sages). Here’s the available jobs and how to fill out the application:

Available Jobs :
Programmer: Someone with significant programming knowledge (Preferably Java). Need at least 4-5.(RndomPerson)
Story Writer: Someone with a great imagination and uses good detail. Need at least 2. (I have a story, but I need more... Here's mine http://zeldadungeon.net/forum/f85/legend-zelda-shadow-instruments-36195.html ) (rock)
Graphical Artist: Someone to create things like the terrain and other stuff. Need at least 3-4.(RndomPerson)
Model Designer: Someone to make the character models. Need at least 3-4. (Katelynn)
Weapon Master: Someone to create the weapons and other items. Need at least 2.(rock)

Do you have any Zelda-like music?

I can always make some if you want. You'll have to give me a few days for that but if you need it I can get it to you.

 

[XskywardX]

Okay. I'll determine your application after I hear your Zelda-like music.

 

[Johnny Sooshi]

Great! I'll get cracking on it! I'll try to have it to you in a week at the latest. Also, quick question, do you mind it being classic with a chiptune sound, or symphonic?

 

[XskywardX]

I want symphonic

Darknut_Hunter has been accepted as a music artist.

Application

*Age: 22
Gender: male
*What am I applying for?: Story Writer and possible/collaborative Weapon Master
*Why pick me over anyone else?: My creative talents are only as limited as the possibilities I'm presented with. While I may have an assertive tone in team production, I do honor the full extent of all opinions, voices, and skill sets in order to fully enhance the project before me. Received my B.A. in Sociology (study of people and the world), Creative Writing (poetry, non-fiction, fiction), and an Interpersonal Skills Certificate from the psychology counseling center, all proving my experience and knowledge of human interaction and therefore, how to project it into the story realm. Also, my logic and critical thinking (also attributed to such degrees) enhances my creative thought so as to ground it in believability and satisfaction.
*Am I really dedicated to helping on this this project?: I am pursuing other endeavors, but I can contribute on a regularly basis. Skype chats may be limited as I usually conduct myself covertly. Nonetheless, I am intrigued to start work on this project, and would at the very least enjoy being considered a consultant on the matter if my availability doesn't suit the standard.
*About how many hours a week will I put into this?: I'm usually contributing at night or early in the morning at least an hour a day, so 7 hours? Doesn't sound all too pleasing, but as I might have already mentioned, I am managing to juggle the load.
*Example of my work: You've seen a bit of my creative input, but the only other thing I could directly refer you to is my Zelda story (link in my signature). I'm also active on other Zelda-specific forums where my contributions are made. Quite honestly, I don't record all of my examples because I keep coming up with so many ideas.
Real Name: Carlo

Favorite Zelda Game?: Right now I'm on this Wind Waker kick and it's probably the most entertaining to me, but I'd probably go with Ocarina of Time if not WW. Really any main console game.

The hours a week are fine, just as yo go through the day, make a quick note of your thoughts. And for Skype, that's fine, Just IM me via Skype, or PM me via ZD your thoughts and ideas.

It's quite a pleasure to have you on our team!

Great, when would you like me to start pumping this thing full of goodness? I read your story synopsis. Would you like me to kind of flesh out the aspects of it? As all synopsis tend to be a bit rough around the edges I can kind of smooth things out for now. No where near writing the story for it, but in the very least tossing around a few adjustments, additions, and elaborations. Let me know. I can either PM these, post them here, or on the game's actual thread.

With the weapons / item design, how many are we talking about? I'm interested, but not too sure if ill have tome to make enough. I'll refrain from writing you an application until I find out, but if Its manageable around my time then ill surely help out! Also, is it artwork or pixel art?
