About the Song
Jessica is one of our channels’ guest artists. This is a gentle piano song that is suitable for use as a soundtrack for touching, tranquil or nostalgic scenes.

The song was recorded using a Yamaha Clavinova. Jessica has a very light touch when playing the piano, so even during the climactic moments the song keeps its tender mood. Two versions are available. The one in this video has been slightly compressed to reduce the dynamic contrast (basically this means that the softer parts become a little louder). There is also version with the full dynamic range version available (This version has greater contrast between the quieter and louder sections).

Jessica has also contributed the song The Mercury Tale. a fifty-second piano instrumental:

About the Video:
The video is comprised of:
a) A music visualizer effect I created in Adobe After Effects using the Music Spectrum effect. I attached that to a circular mask and then animated it further using the Griddle effect. I quite like the final visualizer. It is almost like the graphics are producing the music rather than simply responding to it. The title text was also also animated in After Effects using one of the text animation presets.
