What is this group?
This group will be playing covers (meaning transcriptions or arrangements) of music from Hyper Projection Engeki Haikyuu!! Instrumentalists will receive sheet music parts just like a real-life orchestra, created by the arrangers. Video and sound editors will receive their recordings and put it into a video (most likely on YouTube). This is planned to be a long-term group, but with the freedom to pick and choose pieces based on your availability. :)

FAQ
Signing Up
Q: How long will the interest check be open?
A: Until July 19.
Q: s the 'interest check' different from 'sign-ups' ?
A: The differences between the two are the level of commitment and amount of info we'll be asking for. With interest check, you're not committed, but with sign-ups, you're expected to be committed according to your availability. Tbh, the sign-up form will have a lot in common interest check form, just more questions.
Q: When will sign-ups be open?
A: They'll be open on July 20 and stay open for 1-2 weeks.
Q: Is there an age limit?
A: 13+!
Q: If we're not available now, can we join the group later?
A: Yes! This is planned to be a long-term group w/ freedom to pick and choose pieces based on your availability, so you can join whenever you wish! Right now is just an interest check to kick us off.
Q: I've never been a mod for anything EVER, can I still apply?
A: Yes! If you're accepted, we'll show you the ropes :)
Instruments
Q: What instrument spots are still available?
A: Everything will always be available! I will say that it would be really helpful to find people who play: trumpet, guitar, bass, cello/string bass, drumset and/or quads/bongo.
Q: If we don't own the instrument, but have access to it, can we mark it down?
A: Yes! For example, a school instrument, or an instrument that can only be accessed at a certain place (e.g. percussion instruments like glock/marimba or a studio rental) is fine! All we ask is that you are able to record and practice with it.
Other
Q: Do you think you guys would do a project like this but for the anime's ost?
A: HM. Tachibana-san and Hayashi-san's music is sooo good... Possibly! I'm focused on the haisute OST, but we could throw some of the anime osts into the mix!
