Hey Joe
I signed up on the forum shortly after I uploaded my first remix, but with no connection at home I can't be very active here.

I did see this post before you contected me thinking this project would be something I just have to follow the progress on. Never could I imagine you'd ask me for some music though. Im very excited

hehe I linked the production diary to my younger brother (who is my biggest fan of my music) and his reaction was "WOW! that Joe guy is funny!, I like him"

The first 100% remixed song for The Last Ninja is complete, also heres a preview of the test city that our CG guys are building for Lin-Fen's capital:



Comments needed! Dont forget, this is just a test city, the actual design hasnt begun yet and wont for at least a few weeks!

Expect the first test animation of the Skeleton warriors soon too!

Hi everyone!
Joe here with something that maybe of interest. I've just released a 24 minute short film online titled "Chinks From China". It was shot in one day on green screen and shows off exacally what is possible with the effects were currently prepping for The Last Ninja Movie.

*LOL* Very good! That Ashworth character is just brilliant *cough*

One suggestion: you should use some kind of audio damping around your green screen, the room reflection ruins the voice recording.

Hey, thanks for the feedback man!
Yeah I agree, the sound could of been a whole lot better if I'd of thought - luckly when it comes to The Last Ninja this wont be a problem as were dubbing the entire film.

Thanks again

Hi everyone!
Sorry I've been away so long, had tones to do this past 6 months or so (getting engaged was one hehe) the other was filming and producing a feature film titled "Vampire Mermaids From Mars"!

Heres the trailer, it features music originally remixed for The Last Ninja Movie:

Comments would be great. As for whats going on with The Last Ninja, its still moving forwards slowly but real progress wont be made until early next year.

Takecare,

Again looking forward to it but you have some serious audio/clipping problems and the music is quite boring until it kicks in at the end..

Just my opinion.

[Retrovertigo]

And even for the best part the mixing is artrotious and too loud, Be happy to help if you'tre interested,

[bign2003]

Hi Retrovertigo, thanks for the feedback!

A lot of the artifacts found in that remix were due to YouTube unfortunitly - it comes up good for getting films shown to the public, but it terms of quality it doesnt hold up too well.

What sorta thing do you think we could do to improve the track? I thought the quality was great (but then Im listening to a high-quality wav).

You can download an mp3 version here, see if the problems you heard are YouTube based or if there part of the track:

I didnt remix the tune, so I dont have access to the raw data, but anything you can suggest I'm sure would be appreciated by the remixer.

The remix is built like the original sid version, its intended to build on the atmosphere of the scene (it plays over the show-down between The Last Ninja and the Shogun),

Will do and by no means am I on par with some of the musicians here but will listen to the link and re-watch/listen and give me opinion.

Been anticipating the movie for a while.

[Retrovertigo]

I'm wrong, sorry. The "Chinks from China", movie was the one I was referring to sound wise.

The music in the Last Ninja one actually rocks.

As before before, really looking forward to it, so more power to you mate in the production!

My mistake!

[bign2003]

Ahhh right lol,
was worried there for a sec, thought something had got past me in the quality side of things hehe!

Hopefully gonna be releasing a second production diary for The Last Ninja soon!
