This month I'm doing the February Album Writing Month (
www.fawm.org).
I signed up for FAWM last year, and posted a few posts in the message board before February started, but once February was here, I didn't do anything.
So, I'm pretty much a FAWMling this year. I never made an entire song in my life before this month. The entire bulk of my song making was of tunes that lasted a few seconds that were in my animations.
This FAWM has been good so far. On the first day, I made my first one minute song called Slipping Serenity, which is an instrumental made in Mario Paint Composer with the real sound soundfont. I put my January Animation Month animations to good use too, since I made a music video for the song with them and uploaded it here.
They have weekly challenges that give you song ideas. This week is "numbers", and I already have an idea for a song and an animated music video to go with it. The crazy thing is, you'd think I'd be sick of animating after 31 days of it, but now that I'm writing songs I just want to animate more!
