Film music "Six Semesters" has finally been cast and the cast-list can be found at www.dcudrama.ie Meanwhile, the makers are interested in collecting and producing a soundtrack for the film. This is where you come in!!! We're looking for those of you who have written songs of your own and are interested in possibly having them on the film soundtrack. They are looking for a recording of your songs whether on CD, mp3 or pretty much anything can be transferred to laptop. The band/artists do not need to be students of DCU so therefore spread the word. Those of you who are interested in having your music on to the soundtrack be in CG06 between 2 and 4 on Wednesday 1st and 6 - 8 on Thursday 2nd. The music submitted can be of any genre and every entry will be treated in the same way as the next. For those of you who have songs but do not have it recorded, they're prepared to record it for you. Just e-mail sixsemestersmusic@gmail.com with the number of songs you'd like to record (max. 3) and the number of instruments involved and they'll get back to you with a time. Recordings shall take place in the radio studio in Henry Grattan between 5.30 and 10.30 on Thursday 9th of November. Unfortunately, for logistical reasons, these songs can only be acoustic performances with no drums. The director and producers ask that people know their songs and know them well as it will be a very tight schedule. It can be an instrumental but there must be some type of structure to it and not a bunch of random riffs. And also they're just looking for an idea of the quality of your song so don't worry about little mistakes, if they do decide to use your song, they'll spend a longer time on a proper recording. As this is a low-budget production, they won't be paying the artists/bands for their music. Having said that, this is a great opportunity for artists/bands to showcase there music as this project has the potential to go far. Any questions or queries just drop an e-mail to sixsemestersmusic@gmail.com Socs Ball Tickets Drama will be selling 15 Socs Ball Tickets on Tuesday at 6pm in Clubs and Socs Office.
