Ladies and gentlemen, I am extremely proud to present the most ambitious project I have worked on to date. I give you "The Star Spangled Symphony".
I've wanted to do a project based on The "Star Spangled Banner" for a long time, but the challenge was always a bit daunting. With such a deep appreciation for the anthem, if I was going to do a project based on it, I wanted to give it every bit of respect it deserved. That's probably the main reason why it took so long to get off the ground. The final version you see now is the result of me thinking way outside the box. I wanted to take it so far above and beyond anything I've ever worked on before, so I knew going into it that it was going to be a long and tough road. I had plenty of successes and frustrations and redesigns and headaches, and in the end, I am completely thrilled with how it turned out.
Fun facts about the project:
number of years I've wanted to do an anthem project: 4
number of times I went back to the drawing board: 3
computers used: 3
computers that couldn't handle the strain and died: 1
computers purchased: 1
total number of files that make up the project: 332,940
hard drive space used: 382.5 GB
hard drives purchased: 2
hard drives that crashed: 0 (woohoo!!)
total length of footage shot: 3 hours, 10 minutes, 59 seconds
total render time: 1,098 hours, 34 minutes
neon green poster board used for the greenscreen: 43
number of times the greenscreen fell apart: 2
number of days wearing a suit: don't ask
bottles of Excedrin purchased: 4
number of people asking me when the project will be finished: lost count
- - Frequently Asked Questions - -
Why are there no instruments?
--The look that I was going for was "air guitar for the orchestra".
Why isn't the blue on the flag being displayed to the top left corner?
--I honestly did not know there was an etiquette rule when hanging the flag.
Why don't you have 50 characters for the 50 states?
--Actually, when designing this, I wanted the music itself to be the 50th "character". The 50 states were not ignored.
How many people helped you work on this?
--Zero.
Debut album "Improv" is now available. Check my profile for details.

My father played the sax on the clip - he is in the Trinity Jazz Band and told me about this.
Pittsburgh is a great city - the people are very friendly there
Hope you put up more clips
