Kalinnikov'S 1st Symphony Development Process

One of the most important things when developing this storyboard was that it was synchronized perfectly to Kalinnikov's 1st Symphony 2nd Movement in tempo, instrumentation changes, and thematically.

This meant that I ended up making a fairly large line-graph to measure whenever the music felt like it was feeling intense and dramatic versus contemplative and sincere.

Almost all of the changes in the music were in some shape or form applied to the story, as well as the color palette (if this were ever a completed animation) was designed to match-up with the shifts in music.
