Weekly Reflection 8

As we approach the end of the semester, my project is getting closer to completion with each passing day. The base animation for the demo is almost done and I am getting in touch with some IMM faculty about working out my problems with Processing. Once I am done with the base animation for the demo, I can work on making some aesthetically based visuals to complement the pitch and instrumentation animation. I have 7 out of 8 instruments animated and I plan to finish the last instrument by tomorrow. Once I finish the base animation, I will post a video onto Basecamp and I will link the video for my next reflection.

Screenshot of my After Effects project at the last chord. Only 6 of the instruments are shown here and I do plan to space out each instrument column so that they are not so tightly packed together.

Dr. Nakra suggested I go back and look back at visual music examples to get inspiration for the aesthetics of my project. I will go back and look at the color organ by Scriabin and some other aesthetically based visual music projects by other artists and musicians.
