Method:

I found a picture of Seated Female Musicians Tang Dynasty sculptures online and I chose one of them (right first) making an animation. I trim this sculpture to different parts: lower arm, upper arm, head, Pipa ( a Chinese traditional instrument), upper body, lower body; and draw something new on her body to complete the body. Then I import these body parts to AE and animate them. I also edited a piece of short music using a piece of Chinese traditional music <Qing bie Yue> and a piece of Spanish music <Por una Cabeze>. I want to use the two different styles music to represent different places and events, so the female musician will show different performances.

Response:

I like the animation I made for this theme. Pipa and guitar have similar shapes but play different music. And I animate the musician in different ways to match the different instruments, music.
