sound

I felt it because i've essentially created a full video with the animation, it really needed some sort of sound or else it feels a bit strange to watch.

I didn't want to apply a specific sound effect to my forms movement, because the entire animation is essentially the same movement and it would be a weird repeated sound over and over.

So i instead opted for a music track based idea, and tried to make sure the track i choose was not too overbearing, and that it also has the right mood for the animation.

I choose a royalty free track by kevin macleod, and it has a really nice, flowing, positive tone, which reflects the fluid and energetic movements of my forms.

I paired this with an underlying ambient track, which is an eerie, ocean like sound composition, taken from free sound.org. (Both of these are credited in my video on vimeo). This sound effect reflects the eerie, somewhat scary environment of the deep sea. It then contrasts with the positive nature of the music track, in the same way that the colour/brightness of the forms contrasts the darkness of the environment.
