Research

For the final project, I decided to do my visual composition on “A Whole New World,” from Disney’s Aladdin. Having grown up with Disney, especially the Renaissance films such as Aladdin, the ballad holds a special place in my heart. After studying the sequence for a while, I noticed that the music generally follows the actions of Carpet: when Carpet performs a trick, the music becomes more intense and when it cruises, the music becomes softer. So, for my project, I decided to depict a 2D version of the path Carpet takes throughout the song. During moments in the music where it becomes higher-pitched or more fast-paced, the path will rise and during more calming moments in the music, the path will level off.
