music video

Post by Kvasnik »

I've been getting more and more into magic. I made this song for the equinox and ended up making this video with it too.
Looking forward to taking the visuals further!

Hi thanks for the comments. Hopefully the screenshots should be attached somehow at the end of this message.

What I did: I ran the audio file through the program and used it to trigger scenes, all which were variations of the same theme - the spinning circle. I made the circle by feeding the audio into a waveform module (or some similar visualisation) which allows a ring effect. Then I used this ring as a mask, with a coloured image underneath. Then I rotated the circle using a vector translate. Many modules have modulating parameters which I linked to sine waves and parts of the audio file (I actually rendered three audio tracks for the song, one with only kick drums and the other with only snare drums).

All in all it was lots of trial and error, as is visible from the screenshots the project became quite messy, but am improving :-)

Thanks. I think the with use of masks you can have very powerful effects, at least that's where my interest is.
