CANVAS

My final project for year 2 studying Motion Graphics + Visual Effects!

Continuing my Investigation into How Sound Looks I decided to go 3d for this, and create a short video using tracked low poly objects reacting to Flume's remix of Tennis Court by Lorde

The finished Pieces! (They're all in one video to make watching them easier, but they're meant to be separate)

Synesthesia

Today I learnt about Synesthesia (in particular, the audio/visual type). It's a fascinating Phenomenon where a person sees shapes, images and colour when listening to particular pieces of music. There's a lot on the internet about this neurological condition, here's one article that I found explained things well:

This ties in well with this project, as asking people with the condition will help me develop the piece in a more meaningful way.
