Inspired

About a month ago I watched a DVD on Norman Mclaren called the Creative Process. From this, I got an idea as to how to visually animate one of my compositions. Specifically, there was an excerpt of Mclaren being interviewed for using a unique animation technique in which he used a single pallet instead of multiple images to create movement. What he did was draw a mountain scene with charcoal and chalk, and would add changes (or erase changes) to the same pallet, each captured with a video camera. He then explained that the footage would then be blended together to create the final product (video). = Great idea!
