Open Garage // Leeds College of Music collaboration

As part of an inter-college collaboration, we were paired with producer and music sync writer Rebecca Saif who was looking for animators to compose music for. This was really helpful for us as we had just finished our concept promotional animation for the Open Garage project. We sent over the short clip and she was really happy with the visuals and began to produce an accompanying soundtrack.

Rebecca sent us back a draft really fast. We were really impressed with the quality of what she had produced in such a short space of time, and she had done a fantastic job of capturing the playfulness of the animation style. However, we had some concerns about the more childish elements in her approach as the video promoted an alcoholic drink. We sent back some feedback about this first draft and Rebecca was understanding and responded by making the tone more adult while adding ambient bar sounds in the background to better suit the subject matter. We were both happy with the final outcome and the process of the collaboration, and would definitely work with Rebecca gain in the future.
