[Marin The Magus]

Um...Alice's art/music grimoire? The maiden's musical kaleidoscope? xDxDxD
Dunno, I suck at this. (You don't need to mention anythingTT Don't even consider this as "serious")

Um...Alice's art/music grimoire? The maiden's musical kaleidoscope? xDxDxD

Hmmm I like both of em~

But, what should we actually draw ?

Whatever ya think might make a good album cover. Could be anything from Yuka standing In a field of sunflowers (no seriously, do this), to Cirno sitting on a gore throne.  :/

[Marin The Magus]

Mmmm ... Hundred flowers of the West ? /kanjinewb

But, what should we actually draw ?

Mix a few characters together with instruments and ta-da~! (That's what I'm going to do, anyway) (And leave space for the tittle, or I dunno)

Probably by tomorrow I might have the inked sketch done :3

[Gpop]

Maidens of the Atelier?

Music of the Kaleidoscope?

[Formless God]

Kay, so where do we submit our stuff ?

Mix a few characters together with instruments

[flamezero16]

Maidens of the Atelier?

Music of the Kaleidoscope?

The second is alright, but the first one makes it sound like were all chicks xD

Kay, so where do we submit our stuff ?

That reminds me amigos, Just start sendin your finished work to me as they come along. Once we have all we think we'l need, we can do the voting via PMs.

[Anunsew]

This looks fun, I better polish up so I can submit something decent. XD

[Marin The Magus]

Kay, so where do we submit our stuff ?
isuxatdat :|

I also suck, but there is only one way of getting better! Practicing! (I'm lucky I can ask my friends about guitar designs xD)

[Anunsew]

FIRE IT UP, I SAY!!

LET OUR PASSIONS RUN WILD IN OUR ART!!
XD

Seriously though, I know this is going to be good.

[flamezero16]

Glad to see your motivated Anun~ I had hoped youd join =p

Now we just need PT8 >=D

[Patorikku]

Musicians of the Kaleidoscope.

Also, if you seriously lack musicians, I can try to mix together some MIDI-based songs, mixing together Final Fantasy with Touhou. Any objections or recommendations, because I have no originality of my own whatsoever want to make this a sort of "What the people want" mix.

[Anunsew]

We need all the people we can get, so I'm joining. ~_~

[Formless God]

Just curious, is tyvb in this too ?

That reminds me amigos, Just start sendin your finished work to me as they come along. Once we have all we think we'l need, we can do the voting via PMs.

Voting via ... PMs
Do I have a deadline ?

[HakureiSM]

What the shit, voting via PMs
That can't work


Also plz someone give me an idea
or a few for that matter

[flamezero16]

Just curious, is tyvb in this too ?

Not yet, though I should definitely ask him.

Voting via ... PMs
Do I have a deadline ?

Seems like voting for a lot of things at once in a forum format would kinda be chaotic, but I may just bein goofy =p So whatever y'all wanna do.

As far as a deadline, Sercy and Gappy would like to see it sold at a Comiket, so I suppose the next time one of those rolls around is the deadline. Assuming we can find someone to set up a booth xD Im not to keen on the details of Comiket, (I originally just wanted to jam with Sercy a bit XD) but  if were gonna go through the effort of doin it anyway, why not get some people to listen to it.

[HakureiSM]

So uh, when is the next Comiket again? :3
(yeah I don't pay much attention to a lot of stuff)

[Mushyrulez]

Wait, wait, just ta clarify; what music'll get included? Just Touhou arranges? Touhou original themes? Anything? :V

[Drake]

Effectively New Year's.

[Infy♫]

hakureiSM:
draw doodles of the participating people for the booklet.
that's what i'd suggest.


so i'll make a list of everyone who's in, when im back home

[Kommisar]

would be easier to figure out a theme if it was a specific genre being arranged. for various artists one would have to make a cover with everything on it



or maybe that's what we need...

[flamezero16]

Wait, wait, just ta clarify; what music'll get included? Just Touhou arranges? Touhou original themes? Anything? :V

At this point, anything touhou related can go in. Originals included, so long as their touhou inspired =p

would be easier to figure out a theme if it was a specific genre being arranged. for various artists one would have to make a cover with everything on it



or maybe that's what we need...

Yeah but we cant just have one specefic genre with so many musicians =p

Also, if you seriously lack musicians, I can try to mix together some MIDI-based songs, mixing together Final Fantasy with Touhou. Any objections or recommendations, because I have no originality of my own whatsoever want to make this a sort of "What the people want" mix.

Might as well take a shot amigo. Couldnt hurt to try =p

[PT8Sceptile]

Now we just need PT8 >=D

Well I sure could try to submit something here. I could try arranging something out of The Refrain of the Lovely Great War, Nemesis' Stronghold and/or The Centennial Festival for Magic Girls.

I guess I could start with Nemesis' Stronghold at first. I'm somewhat busy with school due to some major exams coming but if the time limit is as lenient as December I'll surely have something done by then. It's just the quality I can't reassure, due to my unfortunate inexperience.

[Infy♫]

i suggest we appoint 3 judges.
i think if we create a thread to post your works in it would be better than just pming them to 1 person.

we need to figure a doujin group name too. How about "Alice's Art Atelier"?

[Marin The Magus]

LIke that name. It's just what we are xD (I mean, what other name could describe us better than that?)

*Sigh*...I've already started and I think I'll commit suicide. I put some touhou characters together with many instruments from different genres. I think it's shit, but I still have time to make it better....I think...
...Just in case, where can I find a mcdonald's? xD

[Unassuming Squid]

we need to figure a doujin group name too. How about "Alice's Art Atelier"?

Yeah, that's good.

I tried rerecording my U.N. Owen arrange, since I've added stuff to it since my last recording, but I gave up after a couple of minutes because the recording quality was not album-worthy.

Maybe I'll try again later, but I probably just need to get some new recording equipment, which likely won't happen anytime soon because I have no money...

[HakureiSM]

hakureiSM:
draw doodles of the participating people for the booklet.
that's what i'd suggest.

Doodles of the people? I think it's best if we stick to Touhou characters, it's not like the Japanese we hope will be buying it will get our personal OCs.

Also yeah, AAA is the perfect name suck it, library.

And this is really in the need of some organisation. I mean, it's a big project.
We need to organize the art contest part, start a thread, select a judge, post submissions to said thread preferably, or otherwise PM to the selected judge, and final results made public in that thread.
We should also start another thread so the musicians have room to discuss and prepare the music without the artists debate in the middle.
I guess the art debate could remain in the contest thread, but if necessary an art debate thread could also be started.

With that we can leave this thread to discuss the rest that is relevant to the circle, such as how we're gonna set up a booth in Japan to sell this, how are we gonna get it produced, costs, etc.

[Drake]

One does not simply walk into Comiket.

[flamezero16]

I also agree with the name~

Perhaps instead of a thread to post the content, a group file dump account? We can use 4shared or some such. Picking judges would be good for an organizational sake, but I also like the idea of everyone getting a say. If we do decide to pick judges however, make sure we have one from each side as an artist and a musician.

As far as the art contest, I was kinda just thinkin we do a regular old vote =p But maybe thats too simple. Also for the most part, the musicians have been using the IRC channel #Atelier-Magna, but if we need it we can make the threads.

Now for the actual event itself, your ideas are as good as mine amigos. But id be willing to donate some cash if we can get it arranged on that side.

Well I sure could try to submit something here

Good to hear~
