Colgate Commercial


I was so nervous when Mr. Rabuse told us we had to create music to go along with this commercial, especially when he said it needed voices! But first, the music. The first step I made was probably picking out my drum loop. I wanted something that i could build my other sounds on to. After that i started creating special little effects. I came up with the beginning sort of on accident, but hey whatever works. :) Next, I came up with the bell sound with a sound called tinkle, and then put it into a scale. After that, the tinkle sounded too repetitive, so I transposed it and switched between the two sounds. Lastly, the voices. After i came up with a script, and with some helpful volunteers for the chorus, I got the voices recorded. Next I had to figure out where to put them. However the voices alone sounded like they needed something, so i added some reeverb and chorus. Enjoy! :)

  1. the voices sound great- Maybe a bit too much reverb, but better than completely dry voices. I like the sparkly sounds you chose for highlighting the various action scenes in the video, and the drum groove was appropriate to the target audience - kids.
