Synthesis


used the alchemy choir synth and manipulated the envelopes and added filters to create drones for a few scenes. I also needed an underwater ambient effect and so used alchemy again to create this. I used a female choir preset with a sawtooth waveform to add a graininess and the end result was ethereal. One of my favourite synth sounds in the piece happens during the fight sequence when this really stylised star effect appears as one character hits another. I used RetroSynth to create a grainy 8 bit pad that I think really encapsulates the stylised cartoonish energy of the moment.  I think that the 5 minute long animation didn’t have much room for interpretation and at some points wished I could’ve been more creative in my choices, obviously I managed to make the piece my own but upon reflection, I would have wanted to be able to create more stylised sounds for the project. Although, few of the artefacts allowed me to explore this further.
