The Costume Design Music Project:


Dark Ether

 

Posted

As I watched a certain music video, this just occurred to me: An awesome idea for a project to do in one's spare time.

Howzabout this: Every week, I post a band of a style/genre completely different from the one before it. At that point, everyone is welcome to sign up for that week's activity.

At the end of the week, everyone posts a Character Costume/Design inspired by one of the songs that band has done. Maybe someone who embodies they lyrics? Whose color scheme runs across their body the same way the music feels? Let your imagination run wild!

This whole thing started by my listening to They Might Be Giants' I'm Impressed and thinking that we really need a villain out there that captures that song.

Anyway, this is a completely random thought, and it could fizzle or become a really great weekly for those with Alt-itis.

What say you?

Hmm sounds interesting. If nothing else it'll be cool to see what costumes are created inspired by the same song.

the Guardian forums did something kinda music related a year or so ago, we posted theme songs for our characters. Pretty revealing thread that one.

Sounds like it could be an interesting concept. i'd like to see what people would do with some of the ideas. In fact, I have some song ideas, too, that this brought to mind, if you get creative block.

And the costume idea would mean that us non-artistic types could try it too.
