Compose for COVID Project

​Here is one of the projects I made during the coronavirus pandemic. I used the trial version of Ableton Live, as well as the Prophet V emulation from Arturia to craft the sounds. I used stock effects like flanger to create an almost metallic sound to the chord plucks, and pitch bend to one of the leads. I also added saturation to a lot of the instruments to give it a grittier, vintage, and analog feel. I composed in the scale c major but used 7th chords to create a more melancholic mood. To make the video, I used the program weVideo and compiled stock clips that I felt represented the mood of my song. I enjoyed this project very much, and I feel like my favorite part was getting to translate my music into a visual form with videos.
