Sight and Sound Animation

The objective of this project was to visualize music through motion graphics. I chose to work with John Carpenter's main theme from the horror film "Halloween III". This song builds atmosphere and suspense without actually leading to a release point, so the listener is left in a tense state of uncertainty. 

I began by studying this piece of music and creating the visual diagram below. This is a complete 60 second timeline broken down into the different elements within the composition. This served as the template for the timing in my animation. Next, I created storyboards. I decided to turn my animation into a teaser trailer for a hypothetical film I designed a poster for named, "They Won't Stay Dead". My final animation is below.
