Fiat lux film project- March 13th Deadline

Fiat Lux is currently in production and we're really excited about not only working on a live brief but also the aspirations of the film itself. The project is helping me learn more about making collaborations work and tailoring something specifically for a project and being able to pitch changes, developments and experiments.

Abstract interpretation of music

I did a couple of testers of what I like to do best, animation timing to music. The control of the medium if animation allows a number of layers of music to be expressed in layers of visual imagery. I would like to develop this idea to put it into context with some stings.
