Business Card

 Business Card:

I do a lot of open mics where I perform my own original songs and I also meet people in these places a lot. Due to this, having a business card would be very useful to leave around these places and to give to people who come and talk to me as this is likely to greatly increase the streams of my music and people who follow along with what I'm doing. 

I need to confirm a logo for myself for a business card and so I think I'll likely have something that's a mix of folk and pop. What I mean by this is for it to have a sepia feel and old-timey sort of but then for it to also have brighter colours and be slightly more modernised to then make it feel like pop music as well as folk sort of stuff. 


I looked through loads of antique book fonts and I've added screenshots of the ones I liked below (I can't use some of them as they aren't available for commercial use - ones with a red tag rather than green). 













I could use the idea for the website on the card. The idea I'm referring to is having a folk style with a rip on the edge (through the middle) with a pop style picture of me (I won't have a picture of me on the card, only on the website) to show the two styles. 

This is as far as I got in the lesson with designing a rough idea of how I want the business card to look. I included the QR code for my Instagram for something for people to look at to see more things I've done and it's also a way of contacting me but I'll probably include my email as well.

Collaborative Project - EP w/Madison

Image
See technical roles collaborative project here See Tyler collaborative project here Project (with Madison Kent): Create and release an EP with a music video. The EP will have three songs: 'Separated by Water', 'When I'm With You' and 'Meadows and Graves'.  Two songs were written by Madison (Separated by Water and When I'm With You) and the third song we wrote together (Meadows and Graves). We did this by having a common goal and clear idea of what the song was about which is the autistic experience from our perspective. I found it difficult as we had to communicate everything we were doing so we remained on the same page. This process meant that it took a lot longer to write the song which I found difficult as, when writing by myself, I do everything very quickly. Something we compromised on was the melody as Madison wanted to add harmonies and so we kept the melody more simple as to make this easier.  To prepare for recording, we practised for gigs and ...

Video Game Music

 My brother is making a game and he's relatively far through it. It's a clicker game but with slightly more to it as it basically has zombies coming towards a wall and the player has to click on the zombies to kill them and they can heal the wall as well as collect resources from the mine and this is all based on clicking things. They can also upgrade things. He wanted music for his game and gave me a specific brief on how he wanted it to work.  He wanted to have different levels of intensity depending on the amount of enemies on the screen and he wanted to have about 6 different 8 second loops per intensity level. The minimum amount of intensity levels would be around three (although there would probably be more) which means a minimum of 18 different loops to suit the intensity. He wants all of the loops to be able to naturally lead into any of the other loops so that it doesn't sound disjointed or strange.  He sent me four references of music that he wants it to be like...
