So who are you talking about, exactly?

RobSoundtrack 2012-06-26 22:04:24

If I read it right, some douche who was going to collab with him tried to tell him he shouldn't get any revenue from the body of work in question.

OK
The average user doesn't generate enough ad revenue to even collect on it,
makes a newspost that "I'M LEAVING, I'LL BE FAMOUS ONE DAY, YOU'LL SEE!",
and we never hear from the dude again.

Pro tip
Senator John Dean is a badass mother fucker
You might stop patronizing him, so he can freshen up your collab for free
Considering It won't be long before you have to pay good money for that shit

I would think that it would suck if I wouldn't be able to share in the revenue if I contributed my time and effort to a collaboration, definitely a downer and something that would piss me off. Rob has an agreeable pro tip.

Lol I've been watching how you behave. Even if you are a good voice actor or anything else, your also a tool and behave like a child consistently. God knows how many animators you pissed off. You behave so poorly it's really just sad. I'd feel bad for you if I gave a care about your piss poor self esteem and your need to feel better by ranting about people just because they don't do what you want.

Grow up, make a new account, start over. Your obviously clueless on what kind of conduct you should display when trying to get involved with other animations.

AxTekk 2012-06-29 14:05:24

Yeah, sounds like the same bullshit people give you when you're gigging.

"Oh, we'd LOVE you to play at our cocktail party!"
"Sounds great! How much are you willing to shell out?"
"But you like making music don't you? Besides, LOADS of people will be there."

It's a crock of shit. There is always an expense taken, whether it's gas money, bus fare or even just time. People shouldn't expect something for nothing, and you should have the integrity and the confidence to ask for what you deserve.

Tl;dr I concur.

SJD the only advice I can give you is to just move on to other things haha. I'm not dogging Newgrounds or anything here, but I think we can all agree it's pretty bush league around here. Here, it's really all about just getting some views. What makes NG special is how concentrated the community is and how easy it is to get people to hear you music, as opposed to say, Soundcloud or Youtube or something. And while there is most certainly some talented individuals here, a source of professionalism, at least in regards to how people conduct themselves in "the industry/business" it is not.

But because it's so artsy you're gonna run in to that mindset where people get weird about money. I personally haven't had to deal with that for awhile but I definitely remember playing gigs like AxTekk below me mentioned.

Just keep going, when you get to bigger things people understand the money situation. It's not even an issue. I have a few shitty clients at the studio that might try to haggle me, but they're always the people who shouldn't really be there in the first place. I just think of those kinds of clients like: I'm selling them an experience, to be in a studio and feel like they're real musicians for a few hours, not that I'm making a grand artistic statement with them, or helping them to realize theirs or anything.

Don't get caught up with dumb shit, just find people who have the same aspirations and attitudes you do.
