Jarred, the guy who runs this site, is pretty much the last word. Waiting for his reaction on the "actual superheroes vs. plain ole' heroes" issue.
 
Very nice Mikko. Steadi work was yours correct? Great work. Did you have any other part in it all. Editing, etc?
 
aw man. looks like i'm going to need to come out of DVX retirement to whoop some bootay!

afterall it's been a year since i shared a win with Hudson!
 
Hello All. Total noobi, here. I purchased a DVX100B in January, and I have been very busy learning how to use it. Anyways, I would love to make an entry for the Hero-Fest, but I have a question. I have been watching all of the entries in the Sci-Fest, and I was wondering if all of the music is original, or some of the music is from somewhere in the public domain? Also, if some of it is from the public domain, where are people getting it from?
 
I think a good deal of the music was original, or permission was given by the creators. There is a program that allows you to assemble rather generic soundtracks, but the name currently escapes me. Someone will certainly come along and fill in the blank. But again, I know a lot of discussion was given to seeking composers and getting music.

Most of it is original. By that I mean some of them wrote it themselves, some of them got a friend to do it, and some of them got Chris Hurn to do it. A few got permission to use licensed music (a blues song here, a bit of symphony there), but I can't think of many. I actually didn't see any public domain stuff in SciFest.

Oh, and Soundtrack for OSX is not that bad if you're just looking for something quick and easy. I used it on a cheap commercial I did recently, and it didn't suck at all. But watch out for Freeplay and the like, they're only 'free' in certain cases, and they've gotten more restrictive lately. I'd stick with Soundtrack if you're looking for that kinda stuff (generic but useable).

If you need help with scoring (or finding someone to score it), look around the board. If you shoot it, they will come.
 
That's the one I was thinking of, I believe. Soundtracks. Man. It just sounds too obvious to be right... :)
 
Thanks WilderWorks and WCS!!! I am looking for something really simple to start off with, so I'll take a look at Soundtracks. Thanks for being so helpful! I love this site!!!
