Help offered: Story/Dialogue/Concept creation/editing, PR

[sickre]

Hi all,

I am offering my services to any mod teams interested in someone with talent in the Story/Dialogue/Concept creation/editing, PR, or Documentation areas.
I can also create an official, high quality design document for the mod team, using Industry standard templates. I can effectively promote a mod to the community, take feedback and answer questions from the community, and update or maintain public information releases (create media releases, maintain MODDB profile etc.) I can aid in the creation of a high-quality mod manual or simple .txt documentation for players.
I can work with existing mod leaders to create a more streamlined and functional mod concept and proofread or write official mod statements.
With my passion for reading and creative entertainment (Current book: Schismatrix by Bruce Sterling) I can aid mod leaders in the creation or editing of story, dialogue or other behind-the-scenes design work.

I am a senior Literature, English and History (European, Revolutions) student at a private school in Australia. I am also heavily involved with public speaking and debating, and have received various official rewards for my efforts.
I have a part time job at a department store in which I hold a position of responsiblity. At University I hope to study a Commerce-related degree, perhaps majoring in marketing.

I have not officially been a member of a mod team yet, but I currently enjoy giving advice to the "Clash of the Ages" http://mods.moddb.com/2661/#98790 team as an advanced member.

I have some recent mod ideas and concepts available on the internet:

I currently enjoy playing Half-Life 2 et al, Rome: Total War, and the Battlefield series, as well as Vampire: The Bloodlines, Doom3, Civilisation, America's Army and Far Cry on a less frequent basis. My PC and wallet can handle any potential game the mod team is modding, although I would prefer a mod on the BF2 or HL2 engine, or another DirectX9 Engine. (Next-gen games)

If you want to request any other examples or information, send me an email or add me on MSN for a chat. I will respond fastest over email. I can provide formal speeches, essays etc. if required.

Thank you for reading. Hopefully you will consider me a potential asset to you mod team, rather than the standard coder or artist

Xenos may be interested in recruiting you for some of those areas.

Give me an email: ennuinin[at]gmail[dot]com or MSN me: [email protected]

We're focusing heavily on setting/storyline, even though it's a multiplayer modification, and additional people to help develop it would be great. It's got the fairly basic storyline of aliens invading earth, but we've got excellent design and story work done so far. We're in the early stages; that is, design and concepting, but we've got a coder, so we're capable of continuing with the mod.

Right now we're temporarily paused in development to allow for us all to finish school and exams, but in a month or so we'll resume. We're still doing work, just less.

Contact me if you're interested, email, MSN, or a PM would be fine.

Thanks to all who sent me an email. Your interest was greatly appreciated.
I have accepted a fantastic position with a BF2 mod, and as such this thread is closed.
Good luck finding someone to fill those vacant positions.

Best to all,

sickre.
