In need of short "News Jingle"

Hi all,

Is there any of you who would be able to create an orchestra News Jingle (for sort of "Breaking News" on TV) for me for free?
It should be 5-8 seconds long, and I need it soon.

All I've found so far on the internet is from TV/radio stations, and I don't think that I'm allowed to use them.
Others are not free.
But if you can provide me a link to such a jingle that is free for noncommercial use, I'd be happy, too.

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

It's kind of hard to search here but you may just find one and it is all open source.

Thanks for the link, Candle :)

There are interesting sound files. Unfortunately I haven't found anything useful for my current needs.

I've already searched on the internet for many hours, and it's getting frustrating :cry:
Is there anyone else who has either a link, or can create such an orchestral TV news jingle of 5-8 seconds? I'd be really happy if any of you could help me out :)

Mystery...

Are you looking for the news jingle you get before the news starts..Kinda like the introduction that you hear before A news anchor comes on..?






Peace

Exactly, a new jingle before the Breaking News is shown on TV :)

Ok...just so I have it right..i am trying something out right now..Hopefully someone with better talent then me can come up with something..but i think i can try it..

It is very orchestrated right..like dramatic..I guess...like ends quickly too..?

I'm gonna upload something here..it probably won't be it..but perhaps you could tell me if that is the instruments that might be involved with what you are looking for...Or even the sound ..beat..length..so on ..



I'll have it uploaded tomorrow..:)

Hopefully someone beats me to it..LOL>.

Which is fine..its what we want!~.....Come On Guys..!!!..I'm just teasing...:P

Adieux..~!

Yes, exactly. Orchestal and dramatic, and ends quickly after 5-8 seconds.

Looking forward to hearing your creation :D

Sorry for double post..i"ll delete my post before..after I write this one..Darn..should have deleted it before..forgot about that..Sorry..:oops:


I have four here for you..but 1 or 2 may be sports news related..But to be honest I think they sound more newsy than what I had expected.>i think i had more a sound in my mind like beginning of a movie....not sure if that is what u are looking for.. or this...:)

Was a guy that did it for me...lol...


One thing..Can I ask if you do except any of the four that you put a name on there somewhere..He is a musician and would appreciate that..!~ just let me know which one if you do..~

If others download..please do the same thing..:)

Thanks a lot! :D

I think all of them are great jingles, so congrats to Tracey! :)
I haven't decided yet - just listened to all of them quickly, but probably I'll be using 3 or 4.
However for a later game, I might be using one of the others, too.

Of course I'll mention his name in the credits - I mention all names of persons who have provided something for my game :)
Does Tracey just want his name added, or does he also have a website link that should be also added?
