von This week I continued with illustrations and music. But after the input we got about music, I decided to start from scratch with that.
I did continue that one illustration from Mr. Horse but I still haven’t finished it because I struggled so hard with the music. But that illustration is now in the rendering phase.
I chose a song that I liked and planned to use that as Mr. Horses theme song once, well at least the chords. I started to make the chord progression of the song „Cantarella“ in BandLab and used the ones from the intro and verse and switched them around a bit to create an arrangement that would last a little less than a minute. I struggled quite a bit because I just took the chords that were on the hooktheory website and they were in the key G# and the progression is quite complex. I also struggled with coming up with a melody for the song. I think I just have to go with trial and error and kind of go with the flow. It will probably be quite difficult to keep the base melody the same in all of the trailers. Also, the song ended up sounding quite dramatic so maybe it isn’t really the right choice for Mr. Horse. I think it would fit Scarlet Moon better if I just keep using classical instruments.
Next week I will try to finish this song and hopefully get a little faster on creating the songs and illustrations so I can start editing soon. Also I have been searching for fonts and collecting pins on Pinterest for the moodpboard of the videos so maybe I’ll put those together as well by then.
