dazzybee Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Hey, we have just done an initial design of a magazine for my corporate film company. Emag here: http://www.blueprintmultimedia.co.uk/emag/ We are also doing magazines for Foundation (community, young people) and my Creative film company. With these we are starting to do reviews - of films primarily. But I also want to start doing games, film games at first, and then games full stop and bring it into full on reviews of films, games, music etc etc Now with his we are also setting up a review website and an accompanying app (iphone, android, blackberry). We're already getting sent lots of review disks and have a lot of reviews already completed ready for the launch (don't want to start with nothing on). But wondered if anyone would be interested in being a reviewer. Can't offer any payment other than we'll send you the films for review and maybe some other benefits (we always get tickets for premieres and festival and such). Also, if anyone is interested in film games. I would actually be interested in ANY game of a film that has ever been released. But especially all on the current generation of consoles. Our first emag is subscribed to a few thousand people (which will grow each month) and we'll be really pushing the website and app so there'll be quite a bit of exposure. Anyways, if you're up for it, email me - [email protected] and I'll tell you what you'll need to do - pretty much just send a review in and we'll check it out, but I'm not leading on this, someone else is. Hope to hear from a few of you!
Beast Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 I can help you. My reviews can be seen at http://www.dudedazzmoviereviews.blogspot.com
Daft Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Got nothing lose. Here's everything I've written about games and stuff. http://remedialwaste.wordpress.com/author/daftvice/
dazzybee Posted January 24, 2010 Author Posted January 24, 2010 Cheers guys. We've got some big plans for it, in about a month we're doing a big launch of all the companies, 6 separate websites, moving into apps and games and such. I'll do a big post on here when everything is collated to see what peoples thoughts are. But in the meantime someone at Blueprint will contact you about reviews and features. Thanks again.
Beast Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 It's cool. I normally see the latest movies so I can review them if you want to?
Daft Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Contrary to popular belief I can tone down the swearing.
Paj! Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I'd be really interested in reviewing films (or Wii games, only have a Wii of the current gen), cause it's one of things I'm most interested in, I'm going off to do film production potentially this year etc. I don't have blogs like Dazz and Daft, though... Closest thing I can think of is my answers to questions an Art college sent me regarding my film application. :p But yeah, I enjoy writing, and have a good grasp of...english..writing...and shit.
Beast Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Got nothing lose. Here's everything I've written about games and stuff. http://remedialwaste.wordpress.com/author/daftvice/ I've always wanted to know what WordPress is like. Kind of looks cool, is it better than Blogspot? I was thinking of transferring everything to it... Is it worth it?
Daft Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I can't stand Blogspot. Used both at length and Wordpress is frighteningly better. Got my own blog on it too, http://www.daftvice.com
flameboy Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 yeah wordpress pisses all over blogspot... Anyway I'd be interested in doing any reviews I can to help. Both film and film games. So sign me up!
Guest Captain Falcon Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Oooo... I wouldn't mind trying my hand at game reviews. There's a link to one I wrote in my sig and I'm working on my next right now.

Although I have reviews in the student paper.. they can't really be emailed though.
Beast Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Okay, thanks guys. I think I might try and do the switch from Blogspot to Wordpress. It's easier for me to write because I have Windows Live Writer which automatically publishes my reviews and makes it a lot easier to add pictures and videos. Are there any programs out there like this but for Wordpress?
Beast Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 Okay, so I found out that Windows Live Writer also supports WordPress (which is brilliant for me) so I've posted all of my past reviews and I will now use it from now on. Here is my new site: http://dudedazzmoviereviews.wordpress.com/ Tell me what you think?
Ashley Posted January 26, 2010 Posted January 26, 2010 Out of interest would you want contemporary film reviews (which I presume you would) or any?
flameboy Posted January 26, 2010 Posted January 26, 2010 Btw how modern do you want movie licensed game reviews to be? Because I have a ton of old megadrive games that I can give coverage on. Anyway looking forward to hear what work you want doing and reviewing films is gonna be something interesting and new.
dazzybee Posted January 29, 2010 Author Posted January 29, 2010 Hey, just to say thanks for all the interest, PM's and emails guys. We're just putting a few details together and we'll be contacting people. I'm working away 4 days a week currently so I'm being pretty slow, sorry about that. But it'll be rolling very soon.
dazzybee Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 Not quite yet; we're developing the site now, but because of me working away it's been slowed down. Saying this I have now passed on everyones details to the guy who'll be managing it so he will be contacting people to get the content rolling. When we unleash the site and app we want it to have a fair bit of content on. Out of interest would you want contemporary film reviews (which I presume you would) or any? Everything. We want to build a review database of films too. But the focus will be on new releases theatrical and at retail. Btw how modern do you want movie licensed game reviews to be? Because I have a ton of old megadrive games that I can give coverage on. Anyway looking forward to hear what work you want doing and reviewing films is gonna be something interesting and new. That would be amazing. We could kick off with a feature on 16bit film license games - I have shed loads of SNES ones - Aladdin, Lawnmower Man, Jurassic Park etc etc. If people are definitely interested, can you please give my your email address.

Just to say sent you my email address and yes cracking idea about the film licenses stuff. I have plenty of megadrive classics.
dazzybee Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 Hey, just an update. My work mate David has emailed you all, about a month ago, and he said he hasn't had any replies except from Dudedazz. Just making sure everyone received the email.
