Music & Art

An animated presentation of some graphics, photographs and digital art I've created over the years, set to a piece of music I composed. I was inspired to create the video by Val of ValsArtDiary. She recently did a video in which she suggested her subscribers post their music as a response. I didn't have a video ready, so I thought I'd do one. I'd intended to do one all along, but this was a nice motivator.

Motion graphics done in After Effects. Music composed in Apple Logic Express.

A few of the pics included were taken in Mystic, CT at the shooting location of Steven Spieblerg's AMISTAD. If the guy in the hat looks familiar, yes, it's Morgan Freeman.:)

Yeah, it kind of does. When I finished composing it, I thought it had a sort of nautical feel--that's why I called it Dark Seas.:)
