Balderdash

This unit, the Music Video Unit, was a very fun, however, difficult project. This unit has allowed me to spend more time with students in the Film class, and I especially enjoy collaborating with others and having a lot of fun producing and recording. In Web Audio I improved my Pro Tools and Reason abilities. In Design I learned more about Adobe Photoshop and poster design. This project has been such an incredible learning opportunity. I also improved my writing abilities as I wrote a lot of my group's song lyrics. Enjoy my website!

    

Music

We wrote the song lyrics together as a group, however Blake and Annaka were the main writers.I helped with the instrumental bridge. Creating a song that the group enjoyed and loved working on was very fun. In the song our lead singer, Annaka, played guitar, sang, and helped with some of the software instruments. We recorded the song in Pro Tools and did our MIDI portions in Reason, but mixing our music with Pro Tools and seeing what would and wouldn't work was very fun.

Art

For each member of our group, we were to create our own poster and T-shirt art based on our band. We were called Balderdash, and we were supposed to represent our genre of music visually, and still be engaging. The two pieces of art were also supposed to be visually related to each other. My T-shirt image and my poster image are all tied together bu the same idea, which is how love is always changing and pulling. I had such a fun time using Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator to create these two pieces of art.
