This was just awesome to work on. I started with music, composing a couple of fluid movements that rely on a mix of organic and inorganic sounds. Being a musician at heart, my favorite moments in sound design happen when the line between "timed sound effect" and "music" gets blurred, and this video is full of those moments where the music catches a motion or a hit so that an added sound effect doesn't really have to. I took inspiration from Samurai Jack, one of my all-time favorite pieces of media, for the synthesized sounds that border on sound effect and sneak the concept of AI into this otherwise bucolic animation.
