I did two collaborations with Design & Animation students from Curtin University this semester. For collaboration one, I worked on a 30 second animatic (a moving story reel) with a passionate animation student using a scene from a table top roleplaying game. They were very specific with the mood and atmosphere they wanted from the music, using multiple references from soundtracks such as Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (which was cool and very handy for getting an idea of the stripped back instrumentation they wanted). After I played around with the timing of the piece using Logic's movie mode, I did a spot of mixing and spatialising then submitted it, asking about feedback and any changes they wanted. They were extremely chuffed with it and asked for no further edits. It was really useful to have such specific instructions and being very familiar with the style of music they wanted me to create.
"I got the opportunity to collaborate with Hannah for one of my university assignments for animation and visual special effects. The music created for my project was brilliant in its simplicity and fit perfectly with the visuals I had created. Thanks to clear communication from both parties and understanding of what we wanted to create, we made a wonderful piece of art that I was proud of," Robin, 2nd Year Animator. For privacy reasons, I won't post the full animatic itself, BUT you can listen to the track right "here". The second collaboration was with another Curtin University student in their first year of Design and Animation. They had an interesting assignment that they chose to do - they did a speed paint of a score, missing the latter half of its lines and notes as audio plays of myself trying to sight read it to varying degrees of success. It was interesting how hands on this collaboration was. I am lead to believe my slight incompetence with sight-reading was entertaining and added to the art piece. As the notes slowly faded away, most of the sight reading became a memory test and guess work and where the notes where supposed to be. "Hannah helped by collaborating with me for a uni assignment by sight-reading my art composition titled Coda. She was invaluable to the piece as she put her own interpretation of lineless sheet music at short notice!" Coda, 1st Year Design & Animation student. The finished speed-paint / score I sight read can be found below; audio linked "here."
