My sister’s boyfriend purchased a drone, and I told him it would be PERFECT if he could help me out with this visual element. So, my sister and I played one of the instrumentals I made and danced to it. Here is a sneak peek.

For this final major project I’ve decided to create a visual EP and a 6 song album. Coming up with the idea of the visual EP was as simple as looking at what it is that I enjoy the most. Making music and making videos. Usually, I make the two separately, but upon creating a scholarship music video for a company called Study Across The Pond, I realized this may be my niche. An EP consists of 4-6 songs roughly. A visual EP is an EP which each song has a supplemental video. The theme of the visual EP is “Caribbean Vibes.” I was inspired due to my future trip to Antigua, West Indies for my sisters wedding. I figured it would be an aesthetically pleasing location. The album will consist of music about romantic relationships, but not quite “love songs.” I will be performing on them, as well as other musician friends. For this project, I will be creating all the instrumentals, recording and mixing the songs, and recording the video personally for the visual EP.

My name is Mia De Muro. Welcome to my blog! This blog will follow my thought processes whilst creating my final project for MSc Music and Sound Technology (Audio Engineering) at University of Hertfordshire. These blog posts will consist of text, photos, and miscellaneous files. I will attempt to be as raw as possible. Because I am more fluent when physically writing on paper, most of the blog posts will be transcribed from my notebook. Thank you for taking the time to follow my progress.
