I'm now a contributor!!

Posted by MagicalSarai - August 1st, 2009


So I've thought long and hard, since I joined Newgrounds, about what I would contribute to the site... other than my insightful and sometimes harsh reviews... I don't animate things and I don't want to join the community of sprite animators (not that I don't like sprite movies... but that I feel that the sprite movies have flooded the internet). So I negated the idea of flash animation.

Thus I moved to the audio portal... but I don't really write music for the masses. My musical talent resides on the baby grand piano in my foyer. I compose Classical and Baroque music, however, I'm not certain if Newgrounds is the place for such music. It seems like more of a contemporary and later music area... I don't know if my skills would be widely appreciated.

Which left me in a sort of confusion... if I was going to do anything for little recognition... I think I'd like my art to be judged. I'm more proud of my art, and I don't really care what other people think about it (because anything beyond a stick figure is amazing to me... thus I love all my art). So I have now posted something beneficial on Newgrounds! Behold the first two of my art submissions! I will post a new piece of art weekly (if I can manage to be happy with it enough to put it in the public eye)... and that will be how I contribute to the mass of media that is Newgrounds.

Cheers for me!

i'm sure your gonna be a great artist here!

I'll be caught in the middle... not bad, but far from extraordinary... but it's all good, cause I like to contribute. That way I'm not always reviewing and being the critic, but never putting myself out there.

Wonderful, I look forward to yor art being here :) Though I must say, you've already contributed massively with your skills as a diarist / blogger.

Really? So few people actually care about what I have to say... the news posts are just for my own satisfaction... I didn't really consider that as a contribution. XD

Yay art!

but what about the music?

I disagree, I think your music is for the masses

if its good then everyone benefits

but to be completely honest, artists in the audio portal receive little to no recognition from anyone, except a small group of people, which is generally the artist's friends

so in a way, the music you make and submit to Newgrounds will be for the people you want to hear it, a handful of other people and I

also

is your piano in tune?

I have a tuning hammer but I don't have a piano so I feel very silly

would you like to have it?

LOL! I wouldn't know the first thing about tuning a piano. I hire a person to come in and tune it, just because the piano is so expensive I wouldn't risk touching it. It' one of the few things of my mother's that I have left... and she loved listening to me play on it. Sigh... I may record something and post it up. I'm thinking heavily about it.
