The song I chose to use for this project was “Ransom” by Lil Tecca. Reason for choosing this song was because I liked the vibes that the song gave off and it was just a calm feeling and always got me hype for some reason. And once I found what song I wanted to use I started creating shapes and patterns that reminded me of the subtle but repeating beat throughout the song. As well as , the small increments of the added bass throughout.
Develop:
These are the 6 sketches that I chose to refine because I felt as if these catered most to what I hear(visually) as I listen to the song. For example the picture in the bottom left shows the beat as the beat goes “doo, dooo, doooo” as in a small note, to a higher one and a higher one after that, drops then repeats which is why I drew those spikes I guess you could call them.
Define:
And this is how the final project came out. I wanted to add some more inking to some more parts of the drawing but I could not find my inking pens in time. And looking at it now I don’t think I would’ve inked everything because I feel as if the contrast between the patterns is great. But I do wish I could’ve added more.
Love the song choice, could of used more inking and defining the patterns more. Super cool though!
If you had finished inking it, it would of looked real cool but also that maybe you could of played with the patterns just a bit more because it would of made it more attracting to the eye or more focused on a particular spot in the mashup.
