Self-Portrait
Here is my self-portrait for class! For my self-portrait, I chose to write and record a song. As in my "This I Believe" essay, I find music and the songwriting process to be intensely interesting, and a great way to express myself or tell a story. For this song, I decided to tell a simple story; it's basically a typical song about a girl, no one in particular. I just find it's a subject that is easy to write about. When I wrote the song out, I came up with the bass line, then the melody, then the chords, harmonies, rhythm, and keyboard. I tried to make it catchy, fun, and cohesive. I played all the instruments and sang all of the parts, and really enjoyed putting the song together.
The sheep are there because I needed an image to make the song a video, and to post the song to Youtube it needed to be a video.
