VJ设计师
I was delighted to receive an invitation from experimental electronic musician LZ-Louzhang to be the VJ for his music live show at the Carson TV Center, USC.
我非常荣幸作为VJ设计师,受邀参与实验电子音乐人楼长的于USC Carson音乐厅的演出。
The show lasted for 20 minutes and I handled all aspects of visual animation and stage design.
我负责20分钟演出的全部舞美设计于视觉动画。
The overall musical style was characterized by Oriental Futurism.
The opening song served as an introduction. I incorporated elements of traditional Eastern aesthetics to complement the music's style.
整体音乐风格是“东方未来主义”。
开场曲作为引子,我融入了传统东方美学元素。
As for the second and third songs, the rhythm and pace became more soft and gentle, accompanied by visuals that evoked a sense of peace and poetry. 第二首和第三首曲子节奏变得更加柔和,视觉上我主要打造了一种宁静和诗意的氛围。
This part depicts the composer's journey from his small hometown to LA. I utilized techniques such as zooming in on spiderwebs and applying old film filters to evoke feelings of time traveling through memories. 这一部分在叙事上描绘了音乐人本人从家乡来到洛杉矶的旅程。我运用了不断放大的蜘蛛网和旧电影滤镜等效果,来营造穿越记忆和时光旅行的感觉。
The final song shifted the style slightly towards dance, the visual changes to high-contrast and fast-paced. Here, I incorporated more dynamic effects and abstract animations to reveal the Futurism art style while still maintaining a connection to local Oriental and Chinese culture. 最后一首曲子的风格略微转向舞曲,视觉变为高对比度和快节奏的效果风格。在这一部分,我融入了更多动态效果和抽象动画,以更多的展现未来感,同时依然保持与东方及本土文化的联系。
