My Project was about movie soundtracks. I wanted to make high quality music. I decided on soundtracks because I didn't want to sing nor, make a pop song. I was also inspired by the musicians John Powell, and Enya. They both make intense music, or mysterious music. Although, Enya is a singer she made the whole soundtrack for one of the Lord of the Rings movie. This project was mostly about the process of creating a project. We were to concentrate more on learning something new, than worrying about finishing it. For our presentation we had to make a piktochart. The information could be about anythig that involed your project. I choose to research on the marketing world for soundtracks. This project was really exciting, it allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and to try something new.
My first year of Freestyle was unforgettable. In just a year, I have created a personal website, a narrative website, a conceptual website, a documentary website, and lastly an explorations website. I have learned how to take photos and use photoshop. I have experimented with Illustration and Flash. I have played with After Effects to create my own commercial. I have learned more in a year than I have ever learned before. Freestyle has allowed me to learn and think with creativity. Each project shows you a new aspect in the world of art and technology. I came into Freestyle barely knowing how to do a Powerpoint on Google, and now I know how to design my own website, take photos with different lens and lights, express myself through poems and stories, and how to organize and invent my own designs and graphics in Design. Freestyle is hard work, but it is worth it. I appreciate all the skills I have learned throughout this year. I cannot wait for my second year at Freestyle. Freestyle has taught me to step out of my comfort zone, and most importantly it has given me life long friends.
This was my first composed music I had made in Reason. We were asked to created anything on reason, with any instrument we wanted, it just had to be at least 60 seconds. I was captivated by the mystical voices, and autotuned instruments. While creating it I had no idea whether to make a pop, techno, dance, or indy song. In the end I came up with what seem to be a soundtrack. I now have a huge passion for composing soundtracks
