This is the final week before the Genius Hour Project is due. I have finished creating my song, and I actually chose to add the rap to my song. I have heard some ballads with raps, and so I attempted to place it in my song; I referenced to iKON's Apology for the idea. The rap I created will actually be a flashback of the Schizophrenia patient's past events that stood out to him/her. There is a rhyme scheme to it, and I'm planning to rap to it with no instrumental around the end of the song. Recently, I have also finished the piano composition of my song using the website https://flat.io/score/59178bbc27e2f62fadae3072 . It allowed me to create music sheets, and I loved the fact that it plays the note for me so I can actually hear it. The difficult part of creating the composition was actually finding the notes; I tried to make the melody vary. The timing for each note was also unusual. In addition to this, I am currently trying to sing over the instrumental. The song is roughly around three minutes. Recording is actually more complicated than I thought, since the composition isn't exactly how I sang it originally. It is hard to maintain my breath between each lines. I'm currently considering whether to put the song on Smule, so that it can be easier to record. It makes the recording quality better. I also have to film my music video and edit. For this, I have already created a draft plan for it, and I am planning to film it today. I will play the main role, in which I express my depression and hallucinations. It will be in black and white, and I am considering to include contemporary dance. Basically, I want to express the frustrations and loneliness of having Schizophrenia. Finally, I have also began the outline for my TedTalk video. The theme for my video is "dreams". I, first, wanted to start off with a relatable question. Then, I will talk about my past that describes my inspiration for this project. At last, I will describe my Genius Hour Project and display a small clip of my final project. My overall purpose is to uplift those who are in similar situations to me and inform others on how those with Schizophrenia feel. With all of these stuff in mind, I hope to have everything done by Saturday in time for some final touches.
