Making a short picture for a song I’m releasing from my upcoming debut album where a puppy, whose owner is negligent, accidentally lets the puppy out giving the puppy an opportunity to explore new places and experience new things…. and such.
Made a visualizer for my latest song and I tried to match the colors of the opening credits from A Clockwork Orange. Reckon I was close?
Pre-Save Fantasia in G# Minor by M. K. Denninger here: https://artists.landr.com/991048293847
When Bill meets Nick Nightingale, what appears to be Stanley Kubrick is sitting behind Nick, from the POV of the viewer. I’ve heard Vivian Kubrick plays the female he is talking to and she is behind Bill. I’ve heard this is the Kubricks, I’ve heard it isn’t the Kubrick’s. Either way it sure looks like Stanley. Now, Ibelieve it was in a Rob Ager analysis YT film where he suggests this is Kubrick saying Nick is me, I’m promising the viewer sex and secrets to allure them into watching the film just like Nick is doing so with Bill. Apologies I don’t have the link as he has a lot of videos on Eyes Wide Shut. Assuming he is correct, if Nick is Stanley wouldn’t that make Bill the female? And right then he gets the password fidelio which is an allusion to Mozart’s opera about a lady who has to appear as a man to save the day? This is as far as my thought process has gone on this. Think there is anything to these ideas?
Hey I made this music video in Blender. It’s for my 3rd single from my debut album Opus 1 coming out on Halloween. Ask me anything.
I like to name my songs old school like, Nocturne in F, Fantasia in G# Minor etc. what would this piece be? I think it’s A minor with a section in F Major. Am I right? If so what would I call it? Do you still just cal it “whatever in A minor” even if it changes key? Would this be a nocturne cuz it’s all slow and pleasant sounding? Google Drive Link to png’s of the score.
What do you think of this cartoon dude:
Hey was chatting here in r/composer with a person about performed vs midi scores. I was all like midi is lifeless so I don’t like it. They were all, no it’s cool to share your work at all stages. So I’m trying to branch out and share my scores even if they aren’t perfectly performed. I don’t know how to do scores for multiple instruments so moderators please be cool with just the bass-line and maybe people can give me advice on how to do it. I used guitar pro for this and am pretty decent at logic but never use the score part cuz it confuses me how to work it. The lyrics have been replaced by a saxophone fyi. Ok so can’t share a video now, god I suck at tech, so here is an old YT video of it with just the guitar score. YT link
I’m planning on painting one still from each Kubrick film and I watched his early short film, a documentary, and really liked one image. I was about to paint it when a friend came over who had been working on power lines in northern Saskatchewan and showed me some photos. Check out how similar they are. So I painted him and his crew instead.
Hey everyone this is the third single from my upcoming debut album. Its solo piano. This is a realy beautiful piece. Check it out and let me know what you think. Tell your friends if you like it! Thanks!
I recorded my latest piece "Nocturne in C# Minor" the way I actually play it — rubato, no click track, phrases stretching and pulling where they want to. Sounds fine on its own. The problem starts when I try to sync a scrolling score to the recording for a video.
My workaround so far: screen-record the score playing back in software, cut the audio, then hand-align it to my recording in Final Cut. It's close but never quite locks — every time I rush a run or hold a note, the notation drifts off.
So I'm curious how people here handle it. Do you write the tempo fluctuations into the score so playback tracks the performance? Lean on fermatas and caesuras? Just mark it "freely, with expression" and accept the score is a guide, not a stopwatch? Something else entirely?
Not looking for a magic fix, just want to know how you approach it rather than brute-forcing it in an editor.
Wanted to get into making drawing and paintings but I found all the tutorials boring, draw an apple, work on value charts etc. so I was just like , I’ll paint something from my fav director. Many days and hours of work later I had this.
Here is my album art I just made for my single coming out at the end of the month. What’s it make you think of?
