[quote author=DrGonzo link=action=profile;u=324 date=1373230095] here we go i hope its not too late https://soundcloud.com/davidhoustonsound/these-words-escape-me if Agter Elke Prawn, was a post apocolyptic thriller set in downtown Johannesburg with murderous giant parktown prawns, i think this might fit as the opening title :D [/quote]

[quote author=V8 link=action=profile;u=1415 date=1373528368] Please enter this one in the intermediate category This is my take of a theme for a fictional reality show "Real Guitar Hero's", it's like Hell's Kitchen for guitarists. Where does the Prawn bit fit in? Well, guitarists are typically shellfish...=D Here's my rocking entry in the Intermediate category.

[quote author=jt link=action=profile;u=4844 date=1374436604] Some Prawns were actually fond of the human culture. Some broke off and lived peacefully in society alongside humans. After generations they became bigger in numbers and loved everything the humans loved... except their choice in food and some forms of entertainment. P-tv is a lifestyle broadcasting channel striving to bring you the best in high brow Prawn culture. Agter Elke Prawn is a cooking show on P-tv. This laid back show is dedicated to bringing you the best chefs and the best dishes from around the world.

Nice one guys.... well done. Did casted my free votes so good luck to you's

Highway-Chile

Btw, I ask be judged in the A category....advanced.....and mine is for a fictitious cooking show. Thanks.

All in all a very high level of musicianship and the tracks are all great! Almost tough deciding. What it boils down to for me is how the track would sit as the title tune for a TV show where there are perhaps some credits and a visual introduction to the actors and how memorable it would be. Not as underscore or the end titles track. I'm also assuming this was meant to be for a national prime time TV show.

I didn't think to visualize anything other than a cooking show as I did not understand the title. It would have been cooler to go for a drama or sci-fi or something.

Nice work everyone....I was pleased to hear all the entries and the level of expertise. You should all write for TV.

JT as far as the 4 instrument rule......mine is 4 instrument tracks only. Piano, Bass, Guitar, Drums. No overdubbing...zip, nothing, nada. I didn't hear anything that blatant in the other entries........well, nothing that bothered me that much....but I'm listening on crappy laptop speakers and I don't have my hearing aids in....... ? ?

LOL...on a second read that sounds bad. It was meant as a joke about my laptop speakers being low volume. I listened intently to every second of all the entries and enjoyed them all..

V8

Really grand set of entries, well done to all who entered!

Norman86

Mixerboy gets my vote too... Well done dude!

but everyones entries were really really good!

Mixerboy

Mixerboy is pleased

wirt

Man I liked all these entries, but DrGonzo's entry was just awesome! I can see actor names fading in and out in that one, along with a nice little drum-roll at the end to dramatically display a show title. Bravo, good sir!
