Howdy there everyone. Haven't made a big thread here in a long time, but here I am again. Some of you might remember a project that I started about a year or so ago where I was going to do a dub of Pokemon Adventures. Well, several problems with casting, scheduling and other problems prevented the project from going anywhere. I am starting the project over again, except this time it isn't going to be a dub. It is going to be a new interpretation of Pokemon Red. It is going to be partially animated (more like a motion comic than anything) and will be using a lot of the original designs for Pokemon used in the first games and the Electric Tale of Pikachu comic (i.e: Fat Pikachu, Scary Dragonite, more lizard like Charmander family). I will be expanding on some minor characters' stories (like the coffee guy who teaches the player how to catch Pokemon) and overall tell the story in a way that captures the feel of the original games more than the anime did. I already have a few episodes written and I have an artist who is working on character designs (although I am thinking about getting a background artist to help lighten his load). I will be handling the writing, directing, editing and sound mixing as well as writing some of the music. However, I will not be able to do ALL of that by myself. Therefore, I am looking for people to submit Pokemon themed music for the project. I would like for more orchestral pieces, but I am open minded and will try to accommodate any genre of music (except dubstep and rap of course. Those don't really fit in with Pokemon very well, at least in my opinion). I am looking for arrangements of music from the first games and ONLY the first games (Red and Blue or Green if that is your cup of tea), although if you have an original piece that you would like to have included, feel free to submit that as well, as long as it isn't an arrangement of a song from another Pokemon generation. If I use one of your submissions, you will be listed in the credits and a link to the piece will be posted in the description on the YouTube page. For the first couple of episodes, I am looking for variations of the Pallet Town theme, the Route 1 theme, the "Welcome to the World of Pokemon" theme, Oaks Lab, Viridian City and Forest and the Rival theme (and of course any original pieces that you might want to have included). After the first two episodes, I will be looking for pieces inspired by the rest of the games. As of right now, there is no deadline for submissions, but I might make one at some point down the road when my artist gets close to the end of episode 1. Thanks and have fun!
Oh and here's some designs:
Misty (who will be a minor character in this story):
Red:
Blue (No I'm not calling him Green. I know that in the Japanese version he is Green, but I prefer the name Blue. It just seems to fit the character a lot more than Green in my opinion.):
