If you have any serious musical or audio talents and have some free time, we could use your help. We need a new intro for Mobcast...something to get the listeners ready for the show before we ruin everything by opening our mouths.
Got any ideas? Put an audio clip together and send it in by Saturday, Sept. 12. We'll give them a listen then pick our favorite, if any, to use on the show. We'll announce the winner on that episode, and we'll probably run some of the runner-up submissions as well.
What's in it for you besides minor Internet fame? More minor Internet fame! We will invite the winner to be a special guest on a future episode of Mobcast (at our discretion, of course, just in case this person is crazy and shouldn't be heard). More details below!
We don't want to give very much creative direction here, because we want to see what you come up with. But...
• Don't make it too long.
• Think about the audience and the format of the show.
• Don't use any licensed material that we wouldn't have the rights for.
• Any voice work can be male or female (slight edge probably goes to the fairer sex).
• It'd probably be good to work in the show's theme somehow -- "4 gamers, 4 topics" (yeah, we changed it from "guys" to "gamers" to be more gender-neutral) -- but that's up to you.
• Don't reference any Bitmob staffers in the intro -- it won't always be the same people in each episode.
Please send your submissions to letters@bitmob.com with the subject head Mobcast intro. And note: You're giving us full rights and permission to use whatever you send in however we want.
You can find Mobcast in the podcasts section of Bitmob, iTunes, or Zune.
We're looking forward to listening to your submissions!
