After a brief period, I decided to start making video game music again, on the regular forum. This time I decided to add more cinematic elements to this years portfolio work. Starting with...
 |
| Figure 1: Fallout 1 |
The first piece was - https://soundcloud.com/jamesandrewharrisgrant/videogameportfolio_tribal
inspired by Mark Morgan's work on the Fallout series. The theme I took inspiration from was the theme from Fallout 1 called A Trader's Life - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OTqEfRk0lI
To which I based a tribal themed piece on. (linked above)
 |
| Figure 2: Silent Hill 1 |
The Second Piece was - https://soundcloud.com/jamesandrewharrisgrant/creepy-ambience based from various sound works by Akira Yamaoka, especially from the first and second Silent Hill games pictured above - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzs9T1188wA
As I had mentioned in my introductory blog, I wanted to attribute some form of my work into the creation of pieces influenced by the people who had inspired me to become a composer. So I followed by creating two pieces in the style of Mark Morgan and Akira Yamaoka.
This helped me understand somethings I had not yet discovered, by studying the MIDI files of the most influential people in my professional aptitude.
I felt this topic was a very large area for me to speak about so I separated it into two parts. One speaking about the efforts, in which I developed my skills from studying pieces of music and the MIDI files from the people who influenced me.
And the second which documents my own work on Soundtrack Production.
