Fascinating stuff. I teach motion graphics and the first assignment I give my students is to create an abstract animation that responds to a given piece of music.

I have long ago given up on requiring students to produce storyboards. I find them to be restrictive and unable to effectively address the transitions which are at the heart of a motion graphic. Instead I require them to produce single graphical ‘synestheticle representation’ of the music, and from that develop the animation. These graphics bear a strong similarity to the work shown in the O.P. I shall certainly be bookmarking it for their consumption.




I think you will really enjoy this, if you haven’t seen it already: https://youtu.be/UVWKtXDvr04

Note that it is entirely hand animated. (The artist is well known for his visual effects animation.)


Thanks. I have not seen it. Will put it on my list.
