Giant Steps - Michael Levy

This animation starts off quite simple with only two colors and plain shapes, slowly becoming more complex with larger structures and bolder shapes and the music begins to develop into something more fun and lively.  The movement of the shapes is timed to directly correlate with certain notes and bars, making it very effective and entertaining.

Through the course of watching this video, I didn't even realise the change from 2D to 3D shapes until the end; it makes the transition so naturally. Different camera angled are used when there are more extreme changes from one note to another, zooming through the structures creating from the rest of the music. I do think that some of the colors used later are slightly out of place- I wouldn't have put teals and oranges with this kind of music, but I do understand the effect Levy is trying to create by putting very bold, contrasting colours in the animation along with the darker and warmer colours that work well with the 'classy' and 'jazz feel' of the music.
