TREY'S SOUND

TREY'S TUNE

To illustrate Trey's varying interests in cultures, I decided to use a rock song and a rap beat. A band I discovered many years ago called "Good Kid" actually has DMCA-free music.

 

Thus, I downloaded an instrumental for my favorite song, Slingshot, and imported it into my timeline.

Finding the rap beat was fairly easy. Many producers post their music on YouTube to gain notoriety, and many of them are free to use and DMCA-free. I found a free "Kanye-Type Beat", downloaded it, and imported it into the project. The music fits well with the opening's aesthetic.

Rock music is meant to symbolize Trey's unique side. It's music that he resonates with the most, while those around him wouldn't appreciate his tastes. The music is played over by dialogue where Trey provides information about his background, his interests, and his personal feelings. The rap beat is slow and mellow to match Trey's feelings of isolation. Whereas the rap beat is played over by dialogue where Trey talks about his disgruntlement with society as a whole. Rock symbolizes passion, while Rap symbolizes conformity.
