Ahoy, there! Allow me to introduce myself; I'm LikeAnEagle, or Eagle for short (LikeAn is a bit absurd, one would think). I stumbled upon the Hearts of Oak project while searching the web for Age of Sail games, and found myself entirely too eager to see it released. I've lurked about a bit, but only registered for the forum mere moments ago when I decided to drop in an application to help.
[Music and SFX] - I've done some minor work on Steinberg Nuendo, mostly to improvise the illusion of an orchestra where none is available to play live. Armed with a soundcard and a rather decent microphone, I can also offer some voice acting; I'd describe my voice as deepish female (contralto), though I can't sing.
[Creative Support] and/or [Quest Writing] - I've dabbled in writing since I was a wee lass, and one of my works-in-progress include a ChoiceScript-empowered futuristic AoSish interactive fiction, which involves little bits of coding. I can try my hand at dialogue, storyline ideas, flavour text where necessary, &c. I am also reasonably familiar with Victorian literature, to the extent that I shan't write anything anachronistic in linguistics and such.
[Programming] - This is my weakest application of the three, being still a metaphorical seasick midshipman when it comes to the world of programming and coding, but I am willing to learn. I doubt if my computer can handle extensive 3D work or suchlike, but programming may still be within reach. Of course, my being a rookie will mean I'd likely take some time to crash course, but I daresay I'm a tolerably quick study.
Those are my applications. Being a student, part-time work on the game is all I can offer, but I will try my best in whatever hand I am dealt, if enlisted into the Hearts of Oak fleet. Cheers, mates!
